Canon PowerShot SX100 IS review

There's a lot of competition, but the Canon PowerShot SX100 IS certainly keeps up. It makes headway by keeping a compact size with a mighty 10x zoom lens. A full complement of manual and semimanual controls keep it in the running, and its superb photo quality pushes it towards the front of the pack Read more

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

Canon PowerShot A720 IS review

Canon is sticking to what works in its PowerShot A720 IS. Mostly similar to its older A710 IS sibling, it strikes a less hefty pose, but more importantly, this camera improves in the areas of face detection and autoexposure. With a complement of manual exposure controls, old is made new again Read more

Canon PowerShot A630 review

Canon's PowerShot A630 is an 8-megapixel version of its older sibling, the 10-megapixel A640, with an identical design. It's not a great shooter in low light, but otherwise it performs well for its class, with photographer-friendly manual settings and colourful, crisp images. If you're after a solid all-round point-and-shoot, you won't be disappointed Read more
