Olympus FE-210 review
The FE series of digital cameras are designed to be simple, direct and require almost no choices, besides when to press the shutter button. The 7-megapixel, 3x optical zoom FE-210 is no exception Read more

Olympus mju 7000 review
The 12-megapixel mju 7000 isn't going to make anyone wet their pants with excitement, but it's a capable snapper nonetheless. With a 7x zoom range, it offers serious telephoto capability in a compact body that can slip into your shirt pocket, and its pictures are good too Read more

Kodak EasyShare V803 review
V803's smooth curves and array of colours make it rather comely, so if you're after an inexpensive 8-megapixel compact camera in your favourite hue, it's worth a look Read more

Olympus FE-130 review
The Olympus FE-series is a straightforward point-and-shoot range that has no manual settings but includes low price tags and helpful features for those new to photography. The FE-130 is a 5-megapixel digital camera with a 38mm-to-114m (35mm equivalent) optical zoom lens, a 64mm LCD screen and a few intimidating camera settings Read more

Olympus FE-200 review
The 6-megapixel Olympus FE-200 boasts the nicest lens in its series, with a wide 28mm-to-140mm zoom. A digital image stabilisation mode helps reduce shaking when zooming in but the wait of 7.3 seconds between shots may frustrate some users Read more

Samsung Digimax S800 review
Samsung categorises its S-series cameras as point-and-shoots, but they have so many controls they could reach beyond the majority of simple snapshot cameras. Unfortunately, unintuitive menus and poor image quality keep the 8.1-megapixel Samsung Digimax S800 from reaching its potential Read more

Olympus FE-140 review
If you want a simple camera, look no further than Olympus's FE-series point-and-shoot models, which have no manual settings but offer low price tags and helpful features for photography newbies. The FE-140 offers a 6-megapixel sensor, 3x optical zoom and a 64mm LCD screen, but captures images that are mediocre at best Read more

Kodak EasyShare M580 review
The 14-megapixel EasyShare M580 delivers much better pictures than its plasticky exterior and outdated interface might suggest. In fact, its images have a bright, seaside-postcard vividness that's quite refreshing -- and its 8x zoom isn't bad either Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z1275 review
The Kodak EasyShare Z1275 is an attempt to bring 12 megapixels to the masses, and it's certainly affordable. The usual Kodak bells and whistles are present, including 20 scene modes and panorama stitch function, but the star of the show is the 5x optical zoom lens Read more

Fujifilm FinePix J100 review
The Fujifilm FinePix J100 is very simple. We'd even call it the consummate point-and-shoot, mainly because you can't do anything else with it. Despite a few quirks, this camera has a decent 5x zoom -- but one thing is for sure: the prominence of 'baby mode' suggests this isn't a camera for the party scene Read more
