The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-ZX1 offers an 8x super-wideangle zoom in a compact body, and manages to produce clearer and sharper pictures than the majority of its rivals. It also offers solid build quality and straightforward controls. As such, buying it is almost a no-brainer Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 review

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 superzoom combines a 12x zoom and 25mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 720p video recording to create an excellent follow-up to the earlier TZ6 model. This 'hybrid' camera produces superb images, but does it come out on top in the sibling rivalry? Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 review

The 10.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 super-slim camera doesn't look particularly rugged, but it can take a fair old beating. It's also versatile and packed with useful and clever features, while its image quality isn't bad either. In a crowded marketplace, it really stands out Read more

Samsung ST550 review

Its pictures are fairly ordinary, but the 12.2-megapixel ST550 is a stunningly successful exercise in interface design. With a front-mounted touchscreen that makes taking self-portraits a piece of cake, a rear-mounted touchscreen that delivers haptic feedback, and a motion-sensitive menu system, it's a joy to use Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS33 review

The 14.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS33 has its flaws, but it compensates for them by offering plenty of good features at an affordable price. Among its charms are an 8x zoom, excellent build quality and pictures that are a cut above the competition in this price bracket Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T900 review

The 12-megapixel, touchscreen Cyber-shot DSC-T900 is expensive, but it's easy to see where your money's gone. Despite a few design quirks, it looks great, packs in plenty of hi-tech features and, most importantly, delivers good results, both in terms of stills and hi-def movies Read more

Casio Exilim EX-FS10 review

Judged solely as a stills camera, the 9-megapixel Exilim EX-FS10 is too expensive. But it's really all about capturing movement and action, and it does that remarkably well, thanks to some truly unique and startlingly effective high-speed shooting technology 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

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX40 review

When you start using the 12-megapixel Lumix DMC-FX40, you'll realise why it's pricey -- the build quality and design are outstanding. Picture definition could be better, but the FX40 comes pretty close to being the perfect travel camera, thanks to a very versatile 5x super-wideangle lens Read more

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W270's specs certainly gives this compact a fighting chance among its fierce competition. From its 5x wideangle zoom, automatic scene detection, HD movie mode, plus all kinds of face detection, this slim snapper could be one to keep handy Read more
