Reviews

Ricoh GXR

Ricoh sets sail into a bold new world of interchangeable lens cameras with the GXR.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

The FZ35 should be at the top of any potential superzoom buyer's list, with a fully featured specification sheet and good image quality.
Olympus Mju Tough 6010

The 6010 does exactly what it says on the tin and takes photos in extreme circumstances. It's unfortunate that they're not the best photos they could be.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1

The Lumix DMC-GH1 proves that there's fight and fury in the Micro Four Thirds format, with brilliant HD video quality and great still images.
Canon PowerShot SX120 IS

Canon's SX120 IS pocket megazoom falls behind the competition in every aspect except photo quality.
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.
Panasonic DMR-BW750

If you're looking for a flexible PVR that's packed with features, then the excellent Panasonic DMR-BW750 Blu-ray recorder is almost a one-stop shop.
