Canon PowerShot SX210 IS review
The PowerShot SX210 IS isn't exactly strong on innovation, but it packs an impressive set of specs, including a class-leading 14x zoom and 14.1-megapixel resolution. As with most compact cameras, you won't get top-notch picture quality, but this camera does put plenty of power in your pocket Read more

Samsung WB5000 review
Samsung's plunged into the superzoom pool with the 12.5-megapixel WB5000. With a 24x zoom, manual controls and the ability to shoot raw files, it's a versatile beast to be sure. It also has an excellent LCD display, and is straightforward to use, although its rendering of fine detail could be better Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S2000HD review
The Fujifilm FinePix S2000HD is at the top of the line when it comes to superzooms, packing a 10-megapixel resolution screen and a 15x optical zoom. It's available now for around £220, and handles very well, with a chunky grip but a relatively compact feel. As with most Fujifilms, the controls are a bit fiddly, however Read more

Canon PowerShot TX1 review
Every now and again, a company will make a product just to turn some heads and make a statement -- Canon's PowerShot TX1 is just such a camera, with a 10x optical zoom lens, optical image stabilisation, and the ability to record high-definition video Read more

Fujifilm FinePix S5700 review
With its attractive price -- £170 for 7 megapixels, 38mm-380mm-equivalent 10x zoom lens, and a full set of manual and semi-manual controls -- the Fujifilm FinePix S5700 (aka the FinePix S700) is a compelling proposition for the cash-strapped photographer Read more

Nikon Coolpix S8000 review
The 14.2-megapixel Coolpix S8000 superzoom packs a 10x zoom into a compact body at a reasonable price. Its image quality isn't the best we've ever clapped eyes on, but it is straightforward to use, fast and responsive. It also offers a particularly good LCD display on the back Read more

Kodak EasyShare ZD710 review
The Kodak EasyShare ZD710 is a well-designed superzoom with a relatively small size and price alike. It certainly presents a step up over most compacts in terms of manual control. As a first camera for would-be enthusiasts, the simplicity of operation is a bonus Read more

Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS review
The Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS fits a superzoom lens on to a compact body. A slick, contemporary design complements its svelte profile, but it still manages to hold a 12x zoom. Optical image stabilisation is on board, as are manual controls, making this shooter easy to handle Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30 review
Though a dSLR would give you better performance, additional features and better image quality, the FZ30 is a viable alternative for photographers who want maximum flexibility for a (relatively) small cash outlay Read more

Nikon Coolpix L100 review
The 10-megapixel Coolpix L100 is a budget superzoom aimed at beginners. While it's got few frills and is easy to use, it also boasts a solid build and good picture quality. We're slightly baffled by the lack of manual ISO control, and the LCD could be better, but this is a decent camera otherwise Read more
