Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 review

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 is capable of capturing colourful, detailed images. This compact camera's touchscreen controls are also clearly labelled and easily navigated, but we're not sure it's the best option in its price range. Read more

Canon PowerShot G15 review

A professional compact with a wide maximum aperture and consistently good output, but a high price to match. Read more

Pentax Optio RZ18 review

At £160 the Pentax Optio RZ18 superzoom's sharp, colourful pictures are far better than its price and build quality might lead you to expect. Read more

Pentax Optio RS1000 review

The Pentax Optio RS1000 is a basic yet affordable pocket camera that combines the essentials of a high-ish resolution, HD video, large LCD and optical zoom, taking better snaps than expected given its low price. Read more

Samsung WB2000 review

The Samsung WB2000 may resemble just another point-and-shoot compact camera at first glance, but its AMOLED screen, fast writing speeds, intuitive operation, raw-file support and rugged build quality mark it out as slightly more than run of the mill. Read more

Nikon Coolpix S80 review

Its minimalist exterior makes the S80 Nikon's slickest Coolpix compact camera yet, even though its touchscreen can make for fiddly operation at times. Read more

Pentax Optio S1 review

The Pentax Optio S1 is small, affordable and doesn't skimp on the specs. Picture quality isn't spectacular but those looking for a simple, stylish compact in the sub-£100 price bracket should definitely give it a shot. Read more

Canon IXUS 1000 HS review

The Canon IXUS 1000 HS is another competent entry in the long-zooming compact-camera arena. There's little that lifts the 1000 above its ever-swelling pack of rivals, however. Read more

Leica V-Lux 20 review

The Leica V-Lux 20 is a capable but overpriced compact superzoom. It's essentially the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 with a Leica badge. Read more
