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

Kodak EasyShare Z7590 review
On paper, the Kodak EasyShare Z7590 looks great -- 10x optical zoom and a host of shooting modes seems very good value for £250. But mediocre image quality spoils the fun, with a wide variety of digital artefacts reducing the camera's desirability Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 50 review
If you're looking for an ultracompact snapshot camera and don't need manual controls, lots of scene modes or a powerful electronic flash, the marginally better image quality of this unit over its IXUS 40 predecessor may lure you into the Canon fold 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

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

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX7 review
With optical image stabilisation that dampens the effect of the shakiest hands and a huge screen, this 5-megapixel ultracompact is an alluring camera for the snapshot photographer who wants a sharp, clear digicam 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

Fujifilm FinePix Z1 review
The Fujifilm Finepix Z1 is the perfect party companion -- slim, stylish and capable of producing good images in low light, an important feature for capturing great nights out. It's limited to snapshots, though, as there's not much in the way of options Read more
