Typical price: £130
What is it: Compact 4-megapixel digital camera with 2.8x optical zoom
What we think: A competent 4-megapixel camera with a limited zoom range, but its 64mm high-resolution LCD and playback capabilities are a big draw

Stylish, practical and pleasing to use. Its pictures aren't bad either, so it's a good buy at this price
