  Canon PowerShot SX200 IS

  30 Apr 2009 12:42 PM

  More than just a point-and-shoot pocket superzoom, the Canon SX200 IS improves upon its forerunner, but not by much.

  Nikon Coolpix S630

  05 Mar 2009 4:25 PM

  The S630 is fine if you need a compact camera with 7x optical zoom, but for the asking price we can't love it considering its disappointing image quality.

  Nikon Coolpix L100

  29 Apr 2009 5:14 PM

  The L100 is a curious contender for the superzoom crown. It only has a 15x optical zoom and is hampered by a lack of manual controls, but it is light and portable. Just don't expect stellar image quality.

  Specs: Digital SLR , 10 megapixels, 3 inch, Secure Digital Card, Secure Digital High Capacity

  Nikon Coolpix S220

  22 Apr 2009 2:49 PM

  We never thought that we'd describe a camera as cute, but we were wrong — the S220 is quite possibly the cutest little compact you can buy, with striking good looks for a relatively low asking price. It's letdown by the lens quality though, which detracts from the overall prettiness of the package.

  Samsung PL50

  25 May 2009 3:42 PM

  Samsung doesn't ask for much money upfront for the PL50, and it doesn't deliver much in return.

  Specs: Digital compact , 10.2 megapixels, 2.7 inch, 3 x, MultiMedia Card, Secure Digital Card, Secure Digital High Capacity

  Nikon Coolpix S230

  04 Mar 2009 10:51 AM

  The Nikon Coolpix S230 is a decent ultracompact camera with a little extra wow factor of a touchscreen interface.

  Specs: Digital compact , 10 megapixels, 2.5 inch

  Canon PowerShot SX120 IS

  17 Sep 2009 2:41 PM

  Canon's SX120 IS pocket megazoom falls behind the competition in every aspect except photo quality.

  Specs: Digital compact , 10 megapixels, 3 inch, 10 x, MultiMedia Card, Secure Digital Card, Secure Digital High Capacity

  Pentax X70

  07 Oct 2009 11:01 AM

  Slow performance and photo quality concerns stop the otherwise very good Pentax X70 from being a winning superzoom camera.

  Specs: Digital compact , 12 megapixels, 2.7 inch, 6.25 x, Secure Digital Card

  Fujifilm FinePix Z30

  05 May 2009 4:08 PM

  Unless you're a social networking addict and child of the YouTube era, you won't find much use for the FinePix Z30. The novel aspects don't make up for the clunky buttons, slow performance and noisy images at all.

  Specs: Digital compact , 10 megapixels, 2.7 inch, 3 x, Secure Digital Card, Secure Digital High Capacity

  Samsung ST50

  29 May 2009 4:58 PM

  Samsung's ST50 looks the part of a very compact digital point-and-shoot, but the images it produces could be sharper.

  Specs: Digital compact , 12.2 megapixels, 2.7 inch, 3 x, MultiMedia Card, Secure Digital Card, Secure Digital High Capacity
