Canon PowerShot A530 review
Though the A530 is a modest 5-megapixel step down from its 6-megapixel sibling, the A540, it still has almost all of the same handy features and produces very pretty images in well-lit environments. Unfortunately, it lacks the zippy performance and large LCD that help elevate the A540 above the crowd Read more

Olympus FE-180 review
Olympus's 6-megapixel FE-180 is a rare example of a camera with a well-built automatic system -- there are hardly any manual controls, but it still takes a decent image. Basically, the camera runs almost completely on autopilot. It's just the thing for a casual photographer on a budget Read more

Canon PowerShot A430 review
The 4-megapixel Canon PowerShot A430 is an upgraded version of the bottom-of-the-line 3-megapixel A410, which it replaces as Canon's cheap, no-frills digital camera. Despite some irritating image-quality problems, the A430 is a nice, simple point-and-shoot camera with solid performance and a decent feature set Read more

Nikon Coolpix L3 review
The Nikon Coolpix L3 is the midrange member of Nikon's simple, inexpensive L-series digital cameras. The 5-megapixel camera sports a 3x optical zoom lens, a handful of useful scene modes and a small price tag -- and this little shooter produces good-looking images for the price Read more

Olympus FE-130 review
The Olympus FE-series is a straightforward point-and-shoot range that has no manual settings but includes low price tags and helpful features for those new to photography. The FE-130 is a 5-megapixel digital camera with a 38mm-to-114m (35mm equivalent) optical zoom lens, a 64mm LCD screen and a few intimidating camera settings Read more

Olympus FE-140 review
If you want a simple camera, look no further than Olympus's FE-series point-and-shoot models, which have no manual settings but offer low price tags and helpful features for photography newbies. The FE-140 offers a 6-megapixel sensor, 3x optical zoom and a 64mm LCD screen, but captures images that are mediocre at best Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130 review
With a quick shutter and a shiny, attractive shell, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130 makes a very good pocket point-and-shoot camera. It's an improvement upon previous models with its 4x zoom lens with a longer reach and onboard editing helps you tweak and share your shots Read more

Canon PowerShot A720 IS review
Canon is sticking to what works in its PowerShot A720 IS. Mostly similar to its older A710 IS sibling, it strikes a less hefty pose, but more importantly, this camera improves in the areas of face detection and autoexposure. With a complement of manual exposure controls, old is made new again Read more

HP Photosmart R937 review
The HP Photosmart R937 looks rather odd: the lens sits right in the middle of its matte-black shell. Strangely, its unique design makes it one of the more pleasant compact cameras on the market. Behind its abnormal exterior is an 8-megapixel camera with a touchscreen menu and loads of options Read more
