Samsung WB550 review

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 11:12:01 +0000

The 12.2-megapixel WB550 compact superzoom offers a 24mm-equivalent wideangle lens with 10x zoom, giving you plenty of shooting flexibility. While its picture quality doesn't set any new standards, it provides plenty of features and full manual and auto controls, which should keep you experimenting

Sony Handycam DCR-SX30E review

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:20:01 +0000

The Handycam DCR-SX30E camcorder is a good buy for those reluctant to make the leap to HD just yet. It offers a good feature set and decent standard-definition video quality for a reasonable outlay, while being far more configurable than similarly priced HD models

Samsung WB1000 review

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 15:04:02 +0000

The 12-megapixel WB1000 offers more control over your photos than the vast majority of other compact cameras, making it a good option for digital SLR users seeking a pocket snapper. Its photo quality and performance are what you'd expect from a compact, but it's a beautifully made machine

Olympus FE-3010 review

Tue, 08 Sep 2009 16:12:02 +0000

The 12-megapixel FE-3010 isn't the fastest camera in its class when it comes to taking shots, but it offers good colour and white-balance performance. Considering how cheap it is, it also sports an attractive and impressively compact design, as well as solid build quality

Samsung HMX-H106SP review

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 14:08:02 +0000

With a 64GB solid-state drive, as well as an SDHC card slot, the high-definition HMX-H106SP is a robustly built, compact camcorder. Its video quality isn't the best we've seen and its autofocus can be rather slow, but it benefits from an LCD touchscreen and well-organised menus

Samsung SMX-F34 review

Wed, 02 Sep 2009 16:20:02 +0000

The straightforward SMX-F34 may not offer the best standard-definition video quality in the world, but it's comfortable to use and provides plenty of features for an affordable price. In particular, its 34x zoom lens and 16GB of internal memory are more than you'll get with most rivals

Sony Handycam HDR-XR520VE review

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:55:01 +0000

Despite a relatively awkward user interface and a high price tag, the Handycam HDR-XR520VE is a great hi-def camcorder. It records first-rate video to an ample 240GB hard drive, offers great performance and sports a consumer-friendly feature set, including built-in GPS

Canon Legria FS200 review

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 14:42:01 +0000

The Canon Legria FS200 is an attractive standard-def camcorder that packs a 37x optical zoom into an extremely compact body. It's simple to operate, films good-quality video and is a solid choice for those shooting movies for sharing on the Web or who just don't want or need HD video

Panasonic SDR-H80 review

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 16:36:02 +0000

Whether you want to film the moon and stars or just someone very far away having a nosebleed, the compact Panasonic SDR-H80's 70x zoom will let you do it. Its standard-definition video won't blow you away, but it offers loads of storage and its price is reasonable too
