Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 review

It may have the looks of a compact camera, but the 8-megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 has the power of a superzoom in a small package. It sports a large 10x zoom lens made by Leica, with a satisfying 28mm wide angle, and Panasonic's highly capable optical image stabilisation is a boon Read more

Casio Exilim EX-S10 review

It's slim, trim and perfect for pockets, but the Casio Exilim EX-S10 doesn't compromise features for size. Even standards like face detection and the flash have a number of extra options that are tweakable. Boasting a giant screen too, this camera is more than just a slender frame Read more

Fujifilm FinePix F60fd review

With a big 76mm (3-inch) LCD screen and features such as face detection and scene recognition, the Fujifilm FinePix F60fd is a good little compact. The picture quality is good, turning out crisp shots, but we must say we were bogged down in fiddly, often counter-intuitive controls Read more

There's something about an IXUS that's hard to resist. As one of the latest incarnations, the Canon Digital IXUS 90 IS is a tempting addition.

Underneath its plain exterior, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W170 hides a wealth of clever features and an extremely intuitive graphical interface. It also includes a viewfinder -- a compact rarity, these days -- and good a face detection system among its many tweakable options Read more

Ricoh G600 review

If you live life on the edge, you need gadgets to match. The Ricoh G600 is a camera designed for extreme(ish) conditions: this 10-megapixel snapper is waterproof, dustproof and drop-proof. Though the frame is rubberised and the controls oversized, giving it a toy-like quality, the G600 produces good-quality pictures nonetheless Read more
