Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS15 review
The 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FS15 ultra-compact camera isn't the fastest snapper in the world, so it's not great for capturing moving subjects. Its pictures aren't flaw-free either. But it does offer spot-on features for the price, and it's a good choice if you just want to take everyday snapshots Read more

Nikon Coolpix S570 review
The 12-megapixel Coolpix S570 is a thoroughly respectable ultra-compact camera that feels more expensive than it is. For someone seeking a reasonably priced snapper for portrait and landscape shots, where speedy performance is less of an issue, the S570 should work well Read more

Samsung WB550 review
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 Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ38 review
You might think the 12.1-megapixel Lumix DMC-FZ38 superzoom would be exorbitantly expensive, given its 18x zoom, super-fast autofocus, support for raw files, and high-definition movie mode. But it's not. It's one of the best superzooms available, and one of the cheapest too Read more

Pentax Optio W80 review
The rugged, 12-megapixel Optio W80 is an attractive little beast that can withstand a good deal of physical punishment. It's over-reliant on its menu system, but it's a versatile snapper, offering a 5x wideangle zoom, a high-def movie mode and a sensitivity range that goes all the way up to ISO 6,400 Read more

Nikon Coolpix P90 review
With a 24x super-wideangle lens, the 12-megapixel Coolpix P90 is a versatile superzoom that combines a good range of features with decent picture quality and performance. As with most superzooms, it's not a substitute for a digital SLR, but it's vastly more sophisticated than a compact Read more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 review
The 9-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 superzoom offers 20x zoom and speedy, best-in-class performance. It also boasts some truly interesting features and solid video capability. Picture quality isn't the HX1's strongest point, but this camera is worth considering nonetheless Read more

Nikon Coolpix L19 review
The inexpensive, 8-megapixel Coolpix L19 is an unpretentious and sturdy compact camera that's well suited to the rough and tumble of family use. The resolution is modest and you get very little manual control, but, in a perverse kind of way, it's a very likeable camera Read more

Olympus SP-590 UZ review
As superzooms go, the SP-590 UZ, with a 26x wideangle zoom, offers one of the best combinations of price, features, performance and picture quality that we've seen so far. It won't replace a digital SLR but, if you're looking for an ultimate do-it-all compact, the SP-590's definitely worth a look Read more

Olympus mju Tough-8000 review
If you're looking for a compact camera that can withstand extraordinary levels of abuse, you might want to check out the mju Tough-8000, particularly as it also functions perfectly well as an everyday camera. The lens could be sharper but, otherwise, you have to look pretty hard to find any flaws with this beast Read more
