AgfaPhoto DC-600uw

The AgfaPhoto is a cheap, knockabout waterproof camera that's ideal for life at the beach. The feature set and image quality is average but for the price you can't go too far wrong.

Nikon Coolpix S70

The S70 is a good stylish compact with the added bonus of an OLED touchscreen, but faces stiff competition from cheaper and equally competent cameras.

Reviews

JVC Everio GZ-MS130

The GZ-MS130 is a nice, albeit run-of-the-mill, flash-memory-based standard-def camcorder.
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.
Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR

The S200EXR stands on its own as a hybrid between a superzoom and SLR, with a 14.3x optical zoom lens and Fuji's Super CCD sensor. Expect great pictures but be prepared for backaches.
Laser DVBT-MP32 Multimedia Plus

It's not the prettiest PMP on the block, but the inclusion of digital TV support makes the MP32 a great little gadget.
Canon Legria HF20

As far as mid-range camcorders go, there's not much to fault the Canon Legria HF20 for; the image quality is good, the autofocus speedy and feature list fairly full.
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.
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.
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.
