Canon PowerShot S90 review

The 10-megapixel PowerShot S90 is brilliant. At last, we have a compact camera that really does have dSLR-style features, really does approach dSLR image quality and really will fit in your pocket. As well as offering a straightforward interface, it's extremely well-built and elegant to boot Read more

Canon PowerShot S95 review

The Canon PowerShot S95 is a high-performance snapshot camera that doesn't claim to be an alternative to a dSLR, but costs almost as much. You're paying for a smaller form factor, solid feature set and equally solid build. Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS review

The 10-megapixel IXUS 870 IS is the follow-up to the popular 860 IS, and what a worthy successor it is. It's capable of producing truly excellent pictures for a camera of its size and it has excellent components for its price, including a wide-angle lens and optical image stabilisation Read more

Canon IXUS 300 HS review

The IXUS 300 HS is pricey for a compact camera, but it's a pocket-sized powerhouse. Its pictures are great, even at high ISOs, and its super-slow-motion movie mode is a real hoot. Its high-speed shooting modes are also decent. Overall, it's a very good camera Read more

Ricoh R8 review

With the Caplio R7 rating as one of our favourite point-and-shoots of last year, the Ricoh R8 has a lot to live up to -- and it does. While you don't have many manual controls, this retro-style compact is feature rich and certainly tweakable, appealing to both novices and professionals Read more

Canon PowerShot G11 review

The pro-orientated, 10-megapixel PowerShot G11 is expensive and heavy, but it's one of the best serious compacts on the market. Its cast-iron body and chunky external dials are excellent, its image quality is good, and its 5x wideangle zoom is sharp right through its focal range and right to the edges of the frame, too Read more

Canon PowerShot A640 review

With lots of manual settings and a reasonably low price tag, Canon's PowerShot A640 looks appealing. Though it lacks the flexibility of higher-end cameras and the stylish portability of more compact shooters, the 10-megapixel A640 is a smart, fully featured camera with some surprising benefits -- like a fold-out LCD Read more
