Fujifilm FinePix F10 Zoom review
Usable high-ISO sensitivities, good photo quality and a brawny battery highlight the appeal of the 6-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix F10. It's a compact point-and-shoot with a 3x optical zoom and a 64mm LCD. But there are no manual controls for exposure or focus and the image quality isn't perfect Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 review
The chunky DSC-S600 offers remarkable flexibility despite its bargain price. Its 6-megapixel resolution and moderately wide 31mm-to-93mm lens, in conjunction with decent low-light photos and extended shutter-speed latitude in moderate light, combine to produce a versatile point-and-shoot camera Read more

Solid image quality, usable ISO 800 performance and a full set of manual controls make the Canon PowerShot A540 an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts looking for an almost-pocketable second camera, or for budding photographers who aren't ready to move up to a digital SLR Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-M2 review
Thanks to good image quality and a big, bright LCD that's usable in sunlight, this hybrid still camera/camcorder is a surprisingly good point-and-click 5-megapixel snapshooter -- assuming you're willing to pay a premium for a camera with a 3x zoom, no manual controls and no bundled memory card Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX1 review
Aside from its 8-megapixel resolution, the compact Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX1 justifies its premium price with a vast array of boiling-hot features, including the world's first incorporation of a 16:9 CCD imager, a crisp 4x Leica zoom lens, and a nimble optical stabilisation system. It's a portable for those serious about their photography Read more

Canon PowerShot A700 review
The compact Canon PowerShot A700 offers abundant manual controls, respectable image quality and acceptable ISO 800 performance, appealing to both the enthusiast photographer or serious beginner who wants some control over exposure and focus. With its 6x zoom lens it stands above most competitors in the same class Read more

Olympus u [mju:] 810 Digital review
The versatile, water-resistant 8-megapixel Olympus mju 810 Digital adapts to dim environments as readily as it braves damp ones. Thanks to a combination of high sensitivity (up to ISO 3,200), digital image stabilisation and Olympus's Bright Capture pixel-pooling technology, the mju 810 can take and display acceptable pictures in low light Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ2B review
The 5-megapixel DMC-LZ2's vibration-damping optical image stabilisation is especially useful at the telephoto end of this compact's 6x zoom. High-performance burst shooting and easy operation increase the DMC-LZ2's appeal, but its lack of manual controls will disappoint photo enthusiasts Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W5 review
Decent image quality, a versatile burst mode and convenient AA battery power make this Sony suitable for photo fans who want a pocketable camera with a useful set of features. Limited manual control and too many features hidden in the menus are among the few problems Read more
