A competent entry into the 8 megapixel arena.

A fairly average camera that has a few things to offer, but suffers from poor picture quality. There are other models in a comparable price range that offer much better images.

A robust camera in both design and features, the Z120 suffers from image quality problems that really degrade the quality of the package as a whole.

One of the smallest, most well designed cameras we've laid our hands on, the Z500 is unfortunately let down by poor image quality.

If zooming is your thing, then the S4 might be the perfect point and shoot for you.

If you can get the wireless technology working easily, this is a brilliant purchase. Definitely on our watch list.

"The little dwarf" is a reasonable purchase. It has no extremely bad features, and offers some exceptionally sharp pictures in the right setting.

An average camera for the average user. The S3 isn't a bad choice, it takes some fairly good snaps, has most of the basic functions...but so do most of its competitors.

The Pro815 is a good first attempt by Samsung, but it is missing a few things that would allow it to compete with the big guns. The most practical feature is the 15X zoom, and if that is important to you then this may be a consideration

A great, compact camera with a stunning design. Perfect for people who want to try their hand at wide angled shooting.

Although it's quite bulky, the S80 offers an excellent list of features for a compact digital camera.

A bit of a let down compared to Panasonic's earlier models. If they could fix the camera's colour response they'd have a winner on their hands, but as it stands this mode isn't quite up to the high Panasonic standard.
