Fujifilm FinePix X100 review

The Fujifilm FinePix X100 is a serious piece of photographic kit. Not only is it beautifully built, but it also offers excellent performance. Few concessions to beginners and a high price make it a specialist-only camera, though. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 review

The touchscreen Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 subtly refines its predecessor, the GF1. It's well worth a look if you're after a compact camera with swappable lenses. Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 review

The 10.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-LX5 is a compact and feature-packed camera that would make a good choice as a back-up for a digital SLR. The lack of a flash adjustment is a strange omission in a camera of this type, but it's worth a look if you need plenty of power in your pocket Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ45 review

Despite a few shortcomings, the FZ45 superzoom offers excellent value. It resembles a dSLR put on a hot wash, but it's easier to use and packed full of the latest must-have features. It feels like we've seen much of what's on offer here before, however. Read more
