Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS

Canon's Digital IXUS 80 IS adds optical image stabilisation to last year's hit IXUS 70, while delivering just as impressive image quality.

25/01/2008

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ15

A 10x optical zoom with a 28mm wide-angle lens sets this point-and-shoot to be one of the favourites among travellers.

20/02/2008

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3

It has been about two years since Panasonic's last LX-series camera, the DMC-LX2, was launched. One of the most interesting things about that model was its 16:9 aspect ratio sensor and a good range of manual controls not usually found in digital compact cameras. We spent a day with the upcoming successor to the LX2, the DMC-LX3. Here's what we found out.

Canon EOS 400D

The Canon 400D remains a very good first dSLR, with a balance of automatic, semi-automatic and manual controls to progress through as your creative photography skills improve.

28/08/2006

Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS

While the Canon IXUS 860 IS doesn't have an optical viewfinder or manual exposure controls, it captures beautiful images with its wide, 3.8x optical zoom lens and ranks among the top compact cameras we've seen.

20/08/2007

Canon EOS 450D

It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS 450D delivers on performance and photo quality.

25/01/2008

Nikon D80

Nikon's newest midlevel dSLR has a solid feature set that should make it a favourite for experienced photographers or even for SLR newbies who crave more power than the D50's.

14/08/2006

Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd

We're actually struggling to think of anything bad about the 10-megapixel zooming behemoth that is the Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd. It's a versatile and reliable camera that gets looks, features, image quality and controls right.

29/07/2008

Canon EOS 1000D

The Canon EOS 1000D is a good entry-level dSLR, but only its photo quality stands out among the competition.

05/06/2008

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50

Plentiful features with all manner of adjustable options, entertaining gimmicks and rock-solid shooting make us like this camera a lot. If you could stick an SD card slot in there, it'd be one of the best superzooms we've seen. Sadly, it loses marks for the proprietary connections.

Olympus Mju 1060

In this season of offerings, we've noticed two growing trends among manufacturers: touchscreen-enabled or ultra-high resolution point-and-shoots.
