You might balk at paying £300 for a Casio, but the Exilim EX-FS10 is no ordinary camera. Casio's trumpeting its high-speed technology for all it's worth, but it's genuinely unique, often startlingly effective and definitely a great deal of fun.

Latest Digital camera Reviews
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1
As a showcase for Sony technology, it's brilliant, but it's far from perfect in everyday use

It's not the best rugged camera available, but it does offer good value for money
Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX1
This is a great little camera, but the Lumix DMC-TZ6 and DMC-TZ7 are similarly priced and more versatile
