Olympus mju-7010 review

The 12-megapixel mju-7010 is a great little camera that combines a compact body with a 7x wideangle zoom. Its pictures could be crisper and other cameras have longer zoom ranges without costing more, but the mju-7010 is so slim and neat that it's hard to resist Read more

Samsung PL60 review

The 10.2-megapixel PL60 may be inexpensive, but it's also stylish, practical and satisfying to use. You'll get good pictures whether or not you use the hi-tech shooting functions on offer, and the PL60 is capable of picking out more detail than many 12-megapixel snappers. It's a good buy at this price Read more

Fujifilm FinePix J12 review

Dispensing with all forms of gimmickry, the J12 is an elegant, straightforward, 8-megapixel compact digital camera that produces sharp and clear images. It's not perfect but, for the price, it's so good that it makes its rivals look stupid Read more

Samsung PL70 review

The PL70 is Samsung's top of the range point and shoot camera. It boasts a handy 28mm wide-angle 5x zoom, HD movies, a barrage of face-detection options and a rather neat brushed-metal design. A good range of smart options make your life easier, while its images are colourful and well defined Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS review

The Digital IXUS 110 IS isn't the smallest compact camera on the market, but you won't find many that are better-looking. Boasting an understated design and elegant control layout, it also shoots excellent 720p videos, sports a good screen and offers useful face-detection capability Read more

Olympus mju-7040 review

The 14-megapixel mju-7040 is an attractive and flexible compact camera, packing a speedy 7x wide-angle zoom into a diminutive body. Its 2GB of internal storage, one-click 720p movie-recording mode and in-built photo-browsing software are useful too Read more

Canon Digital IXUS 95 IS review

The Digital IXUS 95 may be pretty, and it may be a Canon, but if you've got around £180 to spend and all you ask is a 10-megapixel sensor and a 3x zoom, it'd take you a week to read through the list of candidates. The IXUS 95 stakes its claim with beautiful design, an optical viewfinder and better-than-ever face-detection Read more

Canon PowerShot A1100 IS review

The 12-megapixel PowerShot A1100 IS is a good choice for people who want a straightforward, gimmick-free compact camera that's big enough to hold but can still fit inside a pocket. It also offers decent image quality, and learning how to use it will take no time at all Read more

Nikon Coolpix S3000 review

The 12-megapixel Coolpix S3000 is a good little compact camera for a budget price. If you want cutting-edge tech, look elsewhere, but, if you want a pocket-friendly snapper that's easy to use, attractive and capable of taking decent photos, it may well fit the bill. Its 4x wide-angle zoom is handy too Read more

Canon IXUS 210 review

The 14.1-megapixel IXUS 210 offers a sophisticated design and a bevy of 'smart' technologies that mean you can concentrate on taking snaps instead of constantly reading the manual. Its 5x zoom is useful too, and its touchscreen interface is excellent Read more
