What is it: 10-megapixel compact that shoots hi-def movie clips
What we think: Average photo quality and complicated movie mode diminish this well-made compact's appeal

We like:
Attractive metal case; large screen; bright colours
We don't like:
Basic creative features; slow shooting; little detail, even in 10-megapixel shots

If you've got the money, the Kodak EasyShare HD Dock (£70) lets you play back HD movies on your HD Ready TV, but it's overpriced for what it offers
CNET UK judgement:
Hi-def may be slowly wending its way to the cheaper cameras, but there's still a hefty premium to pay if you want to view your snaps on a real telly. While this beginner's camera has good build quality and ease of use to recommend it, don't imagine you'll be getting true HD movies -- or better than average 10-megapixel photos

We wish it were slightly faster, but it offers a useful 6x zoom and great photo quality

Fuss-free compact that takes good photos given the price. Just don't expect too much from it
Canon Digital IXUS 990 IS
Good camera, but it's underspecified and overpriced, even compared to other IXUS models
Fujifilm FinePix S1500
Its lens and image quality aren't great, but it's a good option for beginner photographers
