Kodak EasyShare Z1012 IS review

When compared to nimble, budget dSLRs, it's easy to sneer at superzooms. With its powerful, stabilised lens, decent 720p movies, the Kodak EasyShare Z1012 IS is a viable, cost-effective alternative to a dSLR. Its 12x zoom and excellent stabilisation definitely make it tempting Read more

First came face detection; smile shutter mode followed shortly after and now the Pentax Optio V20 sports a 'blink detection' feature. This compact also boasts a generous 5x zoom lens to produce sharp images without distortion. With its large screen, this camera is a good budget option Read more

Olympus mju 1010 review

Another off the mju production line from Olympus, the compact 10-megapixel 1010 is slim and sleek, with good picture quality and reliable focus and exposure. The CCD-shift stabilisation works well -- this is particularly important with its impressive 7x optical zoom. Face detection is effective too, particularly with full-face portraits Read more

Olympus mju 850SW review

The 8-megapixel Olympus mju 850SW is a solid super-tough camera, which is waterproofed to 3m, freezeproofed for those extra cold conditions and rugged enough to withstand the impact if you accidently drop it. Its images are warmly coloured, while exposure and focus are excellent too Read more
