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

Canon PowerShot A460 review

This basic 5-megapixel camera comes in at the very low end of Canon's PowerShot A series of digital cameras, but still offers a 4x optical zoom. It's very inexpensive but image quality isn't terrific Read more

Kodak EasyShare M873 review

At 18mm, the Kodak EasyShare M873 slips into the skinniest of skinny jeans. This ultracompact camera reaches up to ISO 1,600 and allows for digital image stablisation, making it ultimately a success as an affordable compact, in that it's small and takes reasonable pictures 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

Vivitar iTwist F536 review

Unless you take loads of self-portraits and really need a fold-out screen, there's very little reason to buy the Vivitar iTwist F536. It's a poor compact camera. Read more

Olympus VG-170 review

A 14-megapixel camera for just £80? Despite a few neat features, the Olympus VG-170 has made too many compromises to hit that price. Read more

Vivitar ViviCam F529 review

The Vivitar ViviCam F529's price might be appealing, but there's nothing else attractive about either the compact camera itself or the photos it takes. Avoid it as you would a leper with head lice. Read more

Samsung MV800 hands-on

The Samsung MV800 compact camera is packed with features that will help you shoot great self-portraits, but the folding screen and phone-style software make it more than just a toy for narcissists. Read more
