Samsung L74 Wide review
The 7-megapixel Samsung L74 Wide, as its name suggests, sports a wide-angle lens, which is great for taking photos of landscapes and groups of friends. Samsung also includes shake reduction for steady shots and includes a unique on-camera guidebook with information on world landmarks Read more

Samsung i8 review
The Samsung i8 isn't just an 8.2-megapixel digital camera -- it's also a portable multimedia player, world tour guide, text viewer, storage device and voice recorder. There are a few downsides -- including some design flaws -- but as far as all-in-ones go, this camera performs well enough Read more

Nikon Coolpix S1 review
Tiny size, image quality that's acceptable but not outstanding, and a lack of manual controls make the ultracompact Nikon Coolpix S1 a decent choice for snapshot photographers who want a good selection of fun features, but don't want to make many decisions on their own Read more

BenQ DC C1050 review
The BenQ DC C1050 has snuck on to the market with a surprisingly affordable 10-megapixel compact camera for the budget-conscious buyer. It's straightforward with very few features, and while it won't win any awards for innovation, it's tasteful, reliable and simple to use Read more

BenQ DC-T700 review
The BenQ DC-T700 is slim and sleek, but still manages to cram in the features. With an enormous screen, sharp lens and responsive touchscreen, the T700 is well designed and built, despite being just 15mm thick -- we kept confusing it with our mobile phone Read more

Olympus Stylus mju 780 review
A couple of nice touches help to elevate the retro-styled Olympus Stylus mju 780 above 7-megapixel, 64mm LCD mediocrity. It offers 5x optical zoom, unusual in a camera of this class, and mechanical image stabilisation to cope with it, plus it's weatherproof Read more

Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z77 review
This camera is designed to help you become a YouTube star. It's user-friendly and reliable all-round, and it has a specific mode that will let you upload your clips straight to the video-sharing site Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd review
For the representative of Generation Z in your life, the colourful and stylish Fujifilm FinePix Z20fd could be an inexpensive little gift. Complete with a YouTube mode, this 10-megapixel snapper isn't the most capable snapper, but its price and styling are aimed at the less demanding market Read more

Samsung Digimax i5 review
Samsung's 5-megapixel ultracompact entry, the Digimax i5, offers a competitive feature set housed in a slender body. Interesting features and a bright 64mm LCD, however, don't compensate for listless performance and mediocre image quality 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
