Nikon Coolpix S52c

We've often wondered why cameras don't come equipped with wireless transfer as standard, especially as Bluetooth and, increasingly, Wi-Fi are ubiquitous in mobile phones. The Nikon Coolpix S52c bucks this trend -- it's a 9-megapixel snapper that allows for wireless email, upload and back-up of images

Nikon Coolpix P60

Do you miss the days when cameras looked like cameras instead of flashy, new-fangled machines? Enter the Nikon Coolpix P60, a compact that makes retro styling cool again. A solid point-and-shoot, it strikes a balance of basic tweakability with general simplicity

Nikon Coolpix S600

The Nikon Coolpix S600 is an attractive 10-megapixel compact. Its small dimensions and elegant brushed metal case means it won't be out of place at a party. It's one of the fastest performers in the Coolpix range and produces good images, particularly out of doors

Nikon Coolpix P50

The Nikon Coolpix P50 has an old-fashioned, boxy feel with a helpful chunky grip. It's a solidly built, easy-to-use, nuts-and-bolts kind of camera. It offers a surprisingly high degree of control over image settings, and as a result its photos are excellent quality for the price

Nikon Coolpix L10

The Nikon Coolpix L10 comes from a family of rock-bottom budget cameras, but they don't skim on performance. The L10 did well in our tests, both in shooting time and in keeping the noise levels under control. While this isn't a camera with lots of frills, it does its family proud as a simple point-and-shoot

Nikon Coolpix S200

This tiny 7-megapixel compact is small enough to fit into just about any pocket, and includes Nikon's Face-Priority AF, Vibration Reduction and strong white balance controls

Editor's rating 6.0

Nikon Coolpix L11

Some budget digital cameras offer surprisingly good picture quality for very little money, such as the Nikon Coolpix L11, a simple, easy-to-use 6-megapixel point-and-shoot that produces very acceptable pictures for under £100

Editor's rating 6.4

Nikon Coolpix L12

The Nikon Coolpix L12 is a 7-megapixel budget camera that boasts two high-end features with optical Vibration Reduction that shifts the camera's 35-105mm equivalent lens to reduce shake. It also has face recognition technology that identifies subjects' faces and adjusts settings accordingly to best capture them

Editor's rating 6.6

Nikon Coolpix L6

Like the rest of Nikon's L series the L6 eschews features in favour of simplicity. This 6-megapixel camera with its 38mm-to-116mm 3x optical zoom lens does not let you select an ISO and its performance can be slow, but if you like the idea of fully automated shooting, it could be a good choice

Editor's rating 6.2

Nikon Coolpix S9

The Coolpix S9 is a 6-megapixel digital camera that really is ultracompact -- it's just 20mm thick and weighs only 116g. That it's so much less expensive than other ultracompacts is due to a squeeze on build quality and features -- fewer pixels in the LCD, only up to ISO 400 and no image stabilisation or manual exposure controls

Editor's rating 6.6

Nikon Coolpix L4

The £90 Coolpix L4 is the least expensive of Nikon's low-end L-series line of digital cameras. The L4 has a small, 4-megapixel sensor, a 3x optical zoom lens and a handful of scene preset modes but few high-end settings. Though slow and not very versatile, it produces some pretty good pictures for its budget price

Editor's rating 6.2

Nikon Coolpix L3

The Nikon Coolpix L3 is the midrange member of Nikon's simple, inexpensive L-series digital cameras. The 5-megapixel camera sports a 3x optical zoom lens, a handful of useful scene modes and a small price tag -- and this little shooter produces good-looking images for the price

Nikon Coolpix L2

The 6-megapixel Nikon Coolpix L2 offers only the bare necessities for picture taking but, for its class, delivers excellent photos that require minimal effort. The Coolpix L2 squarely targets casual photographers though, and more experienced users may be frustrated by the camera's lack of controls

Nikon Coolpix 5900

A smattering of cor-blimey features lifts this compact point-and-shoot model above the 5-megapixel crowd, including Face-Priority Autofocus, a post-shot shadow-brightening tool, help features and blur detection. A poor low-light autofocus and an inaccurate optical viewfinder will disappoint, however

Editor's rating 6.8

Nikon Coolpix 4600

Light on manual settings, the 4600 has several novice-friendly features to make up for it, including Blur Warning, D-lighting, and Best Shot Selector. Add its small size, solid construction and 3x optical zoom, and it's worth considering if you're a casual snapshot photographer on a tight budget

Editor's rating 6.0

Nikon Coolpix 4800

Outgrown your point-and-shoot compact? Not ready to commit to the expense and complication of a dSLR? The Coolpix 4800 could hold the answer. Its 8.3x digital zoom offers plenty of scope without making the whole thing too bulky, and the image quality is great for a 4-megapixel shooter
