Reviews

Panasonic Viera TH-P42S10A

For a budget plasma, the Panasonic Viera TH-P42S10A certainly doesn't perform like one and boasts a significant improvement on last year's models.
LG BD390

The LG BD390's combination of excellent image quality, super-fast loading times and rich features make it one of our top choices among premium stand-alone Blu-ray players.
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.
Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR

The FinePix F70EXR has a lot to offer underneath its standard exterior, like its 10x optical zoom.
Sony BDP-S360

The Sony BDP-S360 handles all the Blu-ray basics with ease, but lacks the streaming internet content found on competing models.
Fujifilm FinePix S1500

Even for a full-featured megazoom camera at a low price, the Fujifilm FinePix S1500 delivers average photo quality and mixed performance.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZR1

If you're looking for a compact zoom camera, the DMC-ZR1 is one of the best, if you can forgive some performance issues in terms of burst speed and average video quality.
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.
