Kodak EasyShare C875 review
Kodak succeeds in getting straight to the point with its EasyShare C875, the high-end member of the EasyShare C series of snapshot cameras. This solid 8-megapixel point-and-shoot doesn't have any outrageous gimmicks, but it produces good pictures and offers plenty of advanced controls Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-N2 review
Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-N2 isn't especially stylish, but its big, 76mm touchscreen and its 10-megapixel sensor make it an attractive little compact as well as a worthy upgrade to the N1. The touchscreen-driven control scheme, however, results in a menu system that's awkward to use and a display that's not quite crisp or colourful enough to frame shots Read more

Samsung NV11 review
The Samsung NV11 is one sensitive camera. Instead of using a joypad or a touchscreen, this 10-megapixel camera uses touch sensor buttons at the bottom and right of its screen to navigate menus and settings. Using its snapshot-friendly features is as simple as a slide of your finger 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

Olympus u [mju:] 760 review
The Olympus mju 760 is a good compact camera -- it's light and pocketable with logical, simple features and it comes in a choice of four colours. Its images aren't perfect but it's ideal for carrying with you wherever you go Read more

Canon PowerShot A630 review
Canon's PowerShot A630 is an 8-megapixel version of its older sibling, the 10-megapixel A640, with an identical design. It's not a great shooter in low light, but otherwise it performs well for its class, with photographer-friendly manual settings and colourful, crisp images. If you're after a solid all-round point-and-shoot, you won't be disappointed Read more
