Olympus FE-140 review

If you want a simple camera, look no further than Olympus's FE-series point-and-shoot models, which have no manual settings but offer low price tags and helpful features for photography newbies. The FE-140 offers a 6-megapixel sensor, 3x optical zoom and a 64mm LCD screen, but captures images that are mediocre at best Read more

Pentax Optio E30 review

The Pentax Optio E30 offers a friendly, perky interface, a simple control layout and an automatic 'green' mode to make it easy to start snapping. A budget price and use of SD cards and AA batteries make it ideal for children Read more

Olympus FE-170 review

Like its bigger brother, the Olympus FE-180, the FE-170 has a 6-megapixel sensor, the same 38mm-to-114mm (35mm equivalent) zoom lens, and the same emphasis on simplified, automated photography. It basically runs on auto-pilot, which, although suiting some casual photographers, is likely to frustrate many users Read more

Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS review

Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS review

The Kodak EasyShare M1073 IS is a 10.2-megapixel point-and-shoot. While we've seen some scorching-hot cameras from Kodak in recent months, the blocky M1073 doesn't quite inspire the same kind of love at first sight. It does have a good 69mm LCD, optical image stabilisation and face detection, though Read more

Kodak EasyShare M1063 review

The Kodak EasyShare M1063 is a 10.3-megapixel point-and-shoot camera. It's similar to the M1073, so we took it for a spin to see what distinguished the M1063 from its siblings, and other budget snappers. It's pretty easy on the wallet for under £90 Read more

Samsung i8 review

The Samsung i8 isn't just an 8.2-megapixel digital camera -- it's also a portable multimedia player, world tour guide, text viewer, storage device and voice recorder. There are a few downsides -- including some design flaws -- but as far as all-in-ones go, this camera performs well enough Read more

At just £160, the Pentax Optio VS20 boasts some impressive specs. Unfortunately, the output left a little to be desired. Read more

Casio Exilim EX-Z90 review

Casio's stuffed plenty of features into the 12.1-megapixel Exilim EX-Z90 compact camera, including a 3x zoom and an intelligent autofocus system that can work out what to focus on and how to adjust the exposure to match. The body's very neat and attractive, and it's fairly inexpensive too Read more

Olympus Stylus mju 780 review

A couple of nice touches help to elevate the retro-styled Olympus Stylus mju 780 above 7-megapixel, 64mm LCD mediocrity. It offers 5x optical zoom, unusual in a camera of this class, and mechanical image stabilisation to cope with it, plus it's weatherproof Read more
