Extreme seems to be the camera market's mantra -- with so many ultracompacts, super-zooms and fancy digital SLRs, it's a wonder there's anything else to choose from.

Ticks numerous boxes, but it's not especially cheap and not particularly exciting

Very expensive, but, as soon as you pick it up, you know this camera is special
