Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 review

The Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is a compelling package, offering a 5x wideangle zoom and 12-megapixel resolution in a compact, attractive body for a reasonable price. Photo quality and performance are also solid. Combine that with a terrific design and you've got a winner Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W220 review

In order to keep the price down, Sony's trimmed the 12-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-W220's features, but left enough in so that it's still a worthwhile proposition. Also offering fairly speedy performance and decent photo quality, this is a well-rounded and attractive compact camera Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z915 review

The 10-megapixel EasyShare Z915 is well worth a look if you want a pocket-friendly superzoom that offers plenty of features, simple operation, a comfortable and sturdy design, and generally good photo quality. It's reasonably priced too, and, for its class, delivers speedy performance 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 Digital IXUS 120 IS review

The 12-megapixel Digital IXUS 120 IS is difficult to resist, thanks to its combination of a tiny, attractive body, simple operation, and generally very good photos. Occasionally, its images can suffer from purple fringing, and it can also be sluggish, but this is one of the better ultra-compacts on the market Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15 review

The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS15 ultra-compact camera isn't the fastest snapper in the world, so it's not great for capturing moving subjects. Its pictures aren't flaw-free either. But it does offer spot-on features for the price, and it's a good choice if you just want to take everyday snapshots Read more

Nikon Coolpix S230 review

The 10-megapixel Coolpix S230 ultra-compact camera offers all of the point-and-shoot basics in a stylish package. It also has an intuitive touchscreen that helps it stand out from the crowd, while picture quality is generally good. It could be speedier, but the S230 is a decent snapper overall Read more

Nikon Coolpix S570 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S570 is a thoroughly respectable ultra-compact camera that feels more expensive than it is. For someone seeking a reasonably priced snapper for portrait and landscape shots, where speedy performance is less of an issue, the S570 should work well Read more

Kodak EasyShare M381 review

The 12.4-megapixel EasyShare M381 ultra-compact camera doesn't offer as many features as most other snappers in its price range, but its simplicity is part of its appeal. With a 5x zoom and a good auto mode, it's a decent choice for casual snapshooters on a budget Read more

Pentax Optio P70 review

The 12-megapixel Optio P70 boasts an exemplary ultra-compact design, has great features and offers relatively good pictures for the target audience -- those who want to step up from taking snaps with their phone. We wish it was speedier though, and its low-light shots aren't great Read more
