Panasonic HDC-TM10 It can’t deliver razor-sharp details, but respectable image quality and a great set of features add up to a great deal
£320
Fujifilm Finepix F80EXR review On paper it’s the perfect compact camera – and it comes close to delivering – but image quality is actually worse than its predecessor
£190
Toshiba Camileo X100 review The X100 looks great value on paper but the quality of video clips fails to impress
£240
Samsung WB5000 review An extremely capable camera with some great features, but significantly slower than the very similar Panasonic FZ38
£247
Casio Exilim EX-G1 review Extremely compact for a rugged, waterproof camera, but in virtually all other respects, it’s a disappointment.
£235
Pentax Optio P80 review We love the slinky design, but there’s little else to make this camera stand out.
£132
Nikon CoolPix S640 review Impressively fast to switch on and focus but not so nippy from then on. Otherwise, it’s an unremarkable, slightly overpriced camera.
£172
Olympus µ-7010 review The 7x zoom is worth having, but other cameras offer better image quality and performance for the same price.
£130
Casio Exilim EX-Z280 review Looks good on paper but considerably less so in practice; image quality is the main weakness
£134
Magix Audio Cleaning Lab 16 deluxe review Almost too powerful for the simple task of transferring vinyl to MP3, but this audio editor also has other, more creative uses.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP8 review With a sleek design, fast performance, some great features including 720p video and a low price, we could live with the unremarkable image quality.
£130
Sunpak PF30X hot shoe flashgun review It’s a little slow and lacks manual control, but this is an affordable option for flash-lit automatic exposures
£71
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS33 review Looks great on paper with its touchscreen and 8x zoom, but a surprising number of flaws add up to a disappointing camera
Sony HDR-CX115E review A well balanced, attractively priced AVCHD camera, but pipped to the post by the slightly better Panasonic HDC-SD60£400
Samsung NX10 review An impressive first stab at a brand new camera system. Not quite as polished as Panasonic’s G-series, but not as expensive either£480
