Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX65

It's a good camera that can take some beautiful pictures, but for the price and the lack of extra features, the FX65 doesn't live up to our expectations of value — and its video quality is terrible.

Samsung WB500

The WB500 is a good camera that delivers quality shots, but unfortunately its lacklustre performance won't go down well with seasoned photographers.

Reviews

  • Canon IXUS 200 IS

    Pairing a pretty touchscreen interface with a competent camera is always a good move, but we're a bit stuck as to what the 200 IS actually is: a touchscreen or a conventional compact.

  • Olympus E-450

    Olympus has announced yet another camera to contend for the title of the world's smallest dSLR. It's not much of an evolution from the E-420, but has a couple of extra features that have trickled down from its older siblings.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7

    Even though it's no longer the sole contender in the travel camera category, the TZ7 still stands far above its competitors. If it wasn't for the clunky mode dial and lack of manual controls, we would have no qualms about recommending the TZ7.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX38

    A great compact camera with a wide-angle lens, the FX38 has a few quibbles that prevent it from being an excellent point-and-shoot.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX520

    Besides the start-up time and stylus, it is hard to find fault with the FX520. Image quality has also improved and we really like the features that are incorporated with the touchscreen.

  • Samsung NV24HD

    With a 24mm wide lens and 720p HD video-recording, Samsung's lightweight NV24HD packs a punch.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX36

    A worthy successor to the FX33, the FX36 is a compact powerhouse capable of delivering decent-quality pictures and HD videos.

  • Samsung i85

    The Samsung i85 is a stylish, jack-of-all trades digital camera incorporating a swag of multimedia features. Unfortunately its poor image quality and cumbersome menu structure means it's a master of none.
