Nikon Coolpix S640

The S640 boasts dSLR-like responsiveness and good pictures but is let down by its price and lack of competitive features like HD video.

Canon IXUS 120 IS

This is a great little compact camera equipped with pretty much everything you could ask for, like HD video and a stylish body, so we've awarded it our Editors' Choice award.

Reviews

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.
Canon IXUS 110 IS

The 110 IS sacrifices quite a lot in order to accommodate its curious styling and additional features. Images aren't as great as we'd expect, but that doesn't mean they're not any good — you'll just have to do a bit more tweaking to get the best out of this camera.
Canon IXUS 990 IS

When you pay a premium for a compact camera, you should expect the very best, and that's almost what the IXUS 990 IS delivers.
Canon Digital IXUS 870 IS

Though the 870 IS isn't perfect, it still remains an excellent compact camera. With a wide-angle lens and super-fast image processing times, the IXUS is an ideal combination of style and substance.
Canon PowerShot A580

The Canon PowerShot A580's chunky, cheery styling isn't to our taste, but the friendly price, accessible controls and respectable image quality pull it out of the bag for this unsophisticated and easy-to-use point-and-shoot camera.
Pentax Optio A40

The Pentax Optio A40 offers first-class picture quality, with optical image stabilisation and dynamic range adjustment looking interesting, but the middling specs are uninspiring and the toy-like styling isn't for us.
Ricoh GR Digital II

The GR Digital II is a cute compact camera that might appeal to street photographers looking to step away from a rangefinder and into digital, but doesn't deliver the features, performance, or image quality it should given its steep price tag.
Canon PowerShot A470

This AA-powered shooter arrives down under in February, and comes loaded with a 7.1-megapixel sensor, 3.4x optical zoom and face detection.
