Kodak EasyShare Z700 review
The surprising amount of manual control with programmed, aperture-priority and shutter-priority modes, the 5x zoom lens with unexpected telephoto reach and the Z700's decent image quality all exceed what you might expect from a camera in this class 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

Kodak EasyShare M853 review
Slap bang in the middle of Kodak's M range of simple point-and-shoot digital cameras, the M853 is a steal for under £80. Eminently pocketable and available in a wide range of colours, it does lack many advanced features, but its user-friendliness may make up for that 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

Samsung ST90 review
The cheap but not entirely cheerful Samsung ST90 suffers from below-average image quality and an ungainly menu system. There are plenty of superior cameras available for a similar price. 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-115 review
The Olympus FE-115 is all about simplicity. This clunky 5-megapixel shooter sports a 3x optical zoom lens, seven shooting modes and not much else. It's inexpensive and takes decent pictures, but does suffer from extremely slow performance and lack of basic image settings -- it's a good idea to look around before you buy Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP3 review
You won't get dSLR-quality photos from the 14.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FP3 compact camera, but it is remarkably quick, so split-second photo opportunities need not pass you by. It also offers a 4x optical zoom, a touch-sensitive display and 720p movie-capture capability in a super-slim, attractive body 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

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
