Compact Cameras
Unboxed: Canon Powershot SX200 IS and Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7
We've been lucky to have hands-on review time with two of the most hotly-anticipated compacts cameras we've seen for some time. See our photos and first impressions of the Powershot SX200 IS and Lumix DMC-TZ7 (also known as ZS3)

Kodak Z1012 IS & Kodak Z1085 IS
Two Kodak cameras and each capable of rich looking 720P HD video. Whether you’re looking for a big zoom or a pocket snapper, these two models have it covered.

First look: Canon PowerShot A470, A580, and A590IS
We've found a digital compact under $150 that's not junk. Canon’s efforts to swamp the planet under five feet of compact cameras continues with its latest batch of PowerShot models.

Vivitar ViviCam 6200W
The Vivicam 6200W is terminator-tough and cheap enough to condemn disposable underwater cameras to the low-tech graveyard

Sony DSC-T300
A classy compact, but with a high price and some image problems

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T100
The best compact Sony yet, with bags of features squeezed into a very stylish package.

Samsung NV24HD
A lovely compact cam and a decent HD camcorder in one

Samsung NV11
We like this camera a lot, and for a rugged day out it’s one of the most reliable snappers out there. We just wouldn’t shoot our best mate’s wedding on it.

Samsung i85
Not worth the extra money for the media ability, but a solid performer

Samsung i7
Gotta love that revolving screen – but remind us again what exactly the point of it is

Samsung i6
Full marks for effort but the i6 is trying to do too much, without doing anything very well

Ricoh Caplio R7
Megapixels are a plenty, but the real selling point here is that impressive lens. It’s just a shame that some noise issues cloud matters

Pentax E40
The selling point of this camera is that it’s cheap – and it certainly excels in that department!
