This camera would serve most people's needs, but is not exceptional. We would only really recommend it if you do a lot of macro photography.

This is a very ordinary camera with very little to make it worth recommending. Look elsewhere.

A wonderful camera that looks good, feels good and takes great shots. Highly recommended.

A big improvement on the S55, the S5z has exceptional image quality, a slim design and a reasonable price tag.

Ricoh has come up with a groundbreaking compact camera that we're sure will have many of you reaching for your chequebooks. It's not pretty or fun, but it's excellent value. Bear in mind that you'll need a capacious SD card.

A novelty camera that fails at its only gimmick.

A very interesting take on the standard point-and-shoot camera.

Overall a solid camera, if not one that truly stands out from the crowd.

This point-and-shoot camera takes high-quality photos, has a big LCD, and offers some manual controls for users who want to do more than just select scene modes.

For snap shooters who like big prints, the Sony is up to the task.

A very complete camera in a small package.

A feature-packed bundle that is a great family purchase.
