Olympus u [mju:] 810 Digital review

The versatile, water-resistant 8-megapixel Olympus mju 810 Digital adapts to dim environments as readily as it braves damp ones. Thanks to a combination of high sensitivity (up to ISO 3,200), digital image stabilisation and Olympus's Bright Capture pixel-pooling technology, the mju 810 can take and display acceptable pictures in low light Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX7 review

With optical image stabilisation that dampens the effect of the shakiest hands and a huge screen, this 5-megapixel ultracompact is an alluring camera for the snapshot photographer who wants a sharp, clear digicam Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ2B review

The 5-megapixel DMC-LZ2's vibration-damping optical image stabilisation is especially useful at the telephoto end of this compact's 6x zoom. High-performance burst shooting and easy operation increase the DMC-LZ2's appeal, but its lack of manual controls will disappoint photo enthusiasts Read more

Fujifilm FinePix Z1 review

The Fujifilm Finepix Z1 is the perfect party companion -- slim, stylish and capable of producing good images in low light, an important feature for capturing great nights out. It's limited to snapshots, though, as there's not much in the way of options Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 review

The chunky DSC-S600 offers remarkable flexibility despite its bargain price. Its 6-megapixel resolution and moderately wide 31mm-to-93mm lens, in conjunction with decent low-light photos and extended shutter-speed latitude in moderate light, combine to produce a versatile point-and-shoot camera Read more
