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

As long as you don't mind its propensity for fringing on edges and the lack of a fast burst mode, you'll find the Samsung Digimax L85 a versatile, quality shooter Read more

Canon PowerShot A470 review
Solid budget models are becoming less expensive and offering better performance -- the Canon PowerShot A470 is one of the best examples of this trend. It isn't the prettiest camera available and it doesn't have any flashy features, but for the price, it's fast and it produces surprisingly good pictures Read more

With lots of manual settings and a reasonably low price tag, Canon's PowerShot A640 looks appealing.

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
