Canon Digital IXUS 980 IS review
Top dog for the moment, the Canon Digital IXUS 980 IS has the highest resolution in its family -- 15 megapixels. It delivers excellent photo quality, offers plenty of shooting options, and its looks are characteristic of Canon's recent willingness to play with design Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS review
The Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS does the thinking for you. Its wealth of features include 10 scene modes, plus Canon's Digic III technology, which handles face detection and noise reduction. The screen is a large 76mm (3 inches) and the menu items accessible, so you can keep a clear head while shooting Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 960 IS review
The Canon Digital IXUS 960 IS pushes the boat out with its 12.1-megapixel CCD sensor. Along with a titanium body and 3.7x optical zoom lens, you'll find this rugged compact is actually quite comfortable and has plenty of features and a high ISO setting. Set sail with this IXUS Read more

Canon PowerShot A495 review
The 10-megapixel PowerShot A495 is an affordable compact camera that offers good photos for the price. The biggest downside is its fairly slow shooting performance, but at this price you can't complain too much. It's very straightforward to use too Read more

Canon PowerShot A2000 IS review
The PowerShot A2000 IS is an uncomplicated, 10-megapixel compact that produces above-average pictures but fails to excite. With countless rivals offering more interesting features, you can't help but feel that this is the Ford Focus of digital cameras Read more

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

Canon Digital IXUS 75 review
Don't look directly at it, or the Canon Digital IXUS 75 will hypnotise you. Any worries you might have over its price tag, lack of features and average megapixels and zoom will be eased by its massive screen and smart styling. You've been sufficiently warned -- this camera is a charmer Read more

Canon PowerShot D10 review
The 12-megapixel PowerShot D10 adds a welcome splash of style to the ruggedised camera market. Although it's not as shockproof as some of its rivals and the basic 3x zoom is nothing to shout about, it's waterproof to an impressive 10m and the lens is unusually sharp for this class of camera Read more
