Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR review

Sporting Fujifilm's EXR sensor, the 10-megapixel FinePix F70EXR compact superzoom with 10x wideangle zoom is capable of delivering some truly impressive pictures, particularly in low light. It's sometimes susceptible to colour fringing, but its size, build and handling are all great 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 Digital IXUS 85 IS review

You shouldn't be afraid to take the Canon Digital IXUS 85 IS home to your parents. Despite its old-fashioned LCD display size, the specification is certainly up to scratch, boasting 10 megapixels, face detection and image stabilisation. It's an affordable option with luxurious looks Read more

Canon PowerShot A495 review

The 10-megapixel PowerShot A495 is an affordable compact camera that offers good photos for the price. The biggest downside is its fairly slow shooting performance, but at this price you can't complain too much. It's very straightforward to use too Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti review

Stylish without being inconvenient or awkward, the 10-megapixel Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti is just the right size to fit into a jacket pocket. It produces very solid photos with nicely saturated colours. But while it's heavy on style, it's pretty light on features that its siblings offer Read more

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS review

What the relatively compact, 9-megapixel PowerShot SX110 IS megazoom camera sacrifices in speed is more than made up for by its arguably best-in-class picture quality. It's also reasonably priced, and offers enough features to appeal to both inexperienced and seasoned users Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 90 IS review

There's something about an IXUS that's hard to resist. As one of the latest incarnations, the Canon Digital IXUS 90 IS is a tempting addition. It's as stylish as the brand requires and feels substantial, thanks to its sturdy build, quirky controls, large screen and respectable image quality Read more

Nikon Coolpix S230 review

The 10-megapixel Coolpix S230 ultra-compact camera offers all of the point-and-shoot basics in a stylish package. It also has an intuitive touchscreen that helps it stand out from the crowd, while picture quality is generally good. It could be speedier, but the S230 is a decent snapper overall Read more

Samsung NV40 review

Although there were some problems with purple fringing and image noise, the Samsung NV40's user interface is so good that we'd still recommend it. This 10.5-megapixel snapper's price is so close to the £100 mark that it'd be a crime not to consider it at least Read more

Nikon Coolpix L20 review

The smart-looking, 10-megapixel Coolpix L20 is a budget compact camera that's easy to handle and straightforward to use. All but very beginners will find the omission of ISO adjustment options baffling, but, otherwise, it's a simple, sturdy, practical camera that takes decent pictures Read more
