- Fujifilm FinePix A500
- Casual photographers on a tight budget will appreciate Fujifilm's no-nonsense FinePix A500, a compact 5-megapixel snapshooter. Unfortunately, the camera's low price comes at a cost: a limited 3X zoom range, no manual controls, just four scene modes, and a tiny 1.8-inch LCD. It has no burst capabilities at all beyond...

- Photos and image samples:Olympus SP-570 UZOnce you mention the Olympus SP-570's 20x zoom lens, the rest of the camera's feature set seems almost superfluous; with an atypically wide-angle lens for any class of single-body cameras plus an exceptionally long telephoto view, the lens is the raison d'être for the camera....

- Nikon AF-S DX VR 18-200mm f3.5-5.6G IF-ED
- One of the blessings of an SLR can also be a curse: having to choose which lenses to carry, which means finding the right balance between weight and bulk, and having the focal lengths you need. The Nikon AF-S DX VR 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 G IF ED lens offers Nikon shooters...

- Nikon Coolpix P80
- For megazoom shooters, the Nikon Coolpix P80's 18x zoom, 27-486mm-equivalent f/2.8-4.5 lens likely sits at the top of the list of the P80's attractions. The range provides a good combination of wide-angle and telephoto views at relatively wide maximum aperture values. Nikon supports the lens with an agreeable and functional...

- Nikon Coolpix S600
- I admit to having mixed feelings about the Nikon Coolpix S600. On one hand, it's a very attractive-looking ultracompact capable of producing pretty 10-megapixel photos. But on the other, it's a tad slow and underfeatured with an occasionally annoying interface. Nor is it priced aggressively enough ($150 or less) to...

- Ricoh GR Digital II

- Canon PowerShot A590 IS
- Canon put substance over style when it designed the PowerShot A590 IS, and in doing so it made a great camera. While the clunky-looking 8-megapixel shooter looks bland when compared with colorful, ultraslim, style-minded cameras, its impressive insides help produce some of the nicest photos you'll shoot for less...

- Nikon Coolpix P5100
- Released not long after its sibling, the P5000, the Nikon Coolpix P5100 quickly claimed its role as the new leader of the Coolpix pack. The two cameras bear a close familial resemblance both on the surface and under the hood--most notably the solid, compact body, optical image stabilization, and manual...

- Samsung L77
- Usually, a big zoom means a big camera. It's only natural; the larger a lens, the larger the body you need in which to put the lens. That's why Samsung's L77 surprised us. This slim little camera sports a beefy 7x optical zoom that doesn't even pop out of its...

- Samsung SC-D372
- It's easy to assume that all budget camcorders look alike. They're all small, inexpensive miniDV devices with 25x to 35x zoom lenses, sub-megapixel sensors, and very few bells and whistles. Because of this, you might be tempted to assume that they're all the same. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. Under...

- HP Photosmart R847
- At its heart, the HP Photosmart R847 is simply a scaled-up version of the HP Photosmart R837. Like its predecessor, the R847 uses a slightly chunky metal body with a sliding lens cover that reminds me more than a little of the Sony Cyber-Shot T-series cameras. It carries the same...

- Nikon Coolpix S200
- For point-and-shoot cameras, size can mean almost everything. If a camera is just half an ounce too heavy or half an inch too thick, it'll be too uncomfortable to carry around. Smaller doesn't automatically mean better, however. The 7-megapixel Nikon Coolpix S200 is one of the smallest cameras we've seen...
