Pentax Optio Z10 review

It's not easy for a camera company to make a small, good-looking camera that takes nice pictures. With its sliding lens cover design, the Pentax Optio Z10 favours a long 7x optical zoom lens and nice image quality -- all excellent qualities for a pocketable compact camera Read more

Kodak EasyShare V610 review

With the EasyShare V610, Kodak takes its innovative dual-lens camera design to its logical conclusion by pairing a typical compact-camera zoom lens with a second 130mm-to-380mm lens for an effective 10x optical zoom range. The V610 also features a large 71mm LCD, impressive for a pocketable compact Read more

Nikon Coolpix S10 review

Nikon's Coolpix S10 is a stylish superzoom camera with an iconic swivel design. It features an excellent 10x optical zoom lens and sports a 6-megapixel CCD sensor with sensor-shift image stabilisation, to help keep that long lens steady. It's an attractive offering and produces good images, but some may find it lacking in advanced controls Read more

Canon PowerShot A710 IS review

Canon has added image stabilisation to the latest, great value model in its A series. For average situations, the A710 IS' image quality is quite good -- most casual shooters will find that the camera is more than enough for their needs, and its versatile controls make it a nice spare camera for more advanced shooters, too Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z650 review

Kodak's EasyShare Z650 superzoom is the budget-conscious version of the more expensive EasyShare Z612, but it does cut corners. It manages a 10x optical zoom lens, in comparison to the 12x zoom of its older sibling, but it unfortunately lacks optical image stablilisation, a noticeable omission on a camera with a lens of this size Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z710 review

Kodak's 7.1-megapixel EasyShare Z710 is part of the company's High Zoom line and includes a 10x optical zoom lens, full manual exposure controls and 17 scene modes. It's also not expensive for a superzoom, but corners have been cut to achieve this -- it lacks optical image stabilisation and its performance leaves a lot to be desired Read more

Canon PowerShot TX1 review

Every now and again, a company will make a product just to turn some heads and make a statement -- Canon's PowerShot TX1 is just such a camera, with a 10x optical zoom lens, optical image stabilisation, and the ability to record high-definition video Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 review

Panasonic's 5-megapixel Lumix DMC-TZ1 has a big 10x zoom, an ergonomically pleasing design and some cool features. It suffers somewhat from image-quality and a lack of manual controls that may well frustrate keen photographers, but casual photographers will appreciate its long lens and compact frame Read more

Olympus SP-510 UZ review

The 510 UZ looks impressive on paper, with loads of convenient and well-thought-out features, including manual exposure controls and a 10x optical zoom lens, but a lack of optical image stabilisation and unusually high noise mar this camera's outlook Read more
