    Veho Muvi HD NPNG edition review

    By 18 May 2013

    You might think that GoPro has the extreme sports camera market stitched up with its Hero range. In fact, the popularity of those cameras has inspired a lot of other manufacturers to produce action cameras that have an amazing range of features. One such...

    Panasonic Lumix GF6 review

    By 14 May 2013

    The Panasonic Lumix GF6 is far from just a subtle upgrade to the series. Even though there's still no hotshoe or viewfinder - something we doubt will ever make it to the GF-series - it's otherwise just about the most feature-packed entry-level compact...

    Hands-on: Olympus PEN E-P5 review

    By 10 May 2013

    The Olympus Pen E-P5 is all about its pro-spec quirks and build quality charm. The successor to 2011's E-P3, the latest Olympus Micro Four Thirds interchangeable lens camera has a mixture of headline features to set it apart from the ever-busying crowd....

    Canon PowerShot SX280 HS review

    By 9 May 2013

    In the search for all-in-one compact camera perfection the Canon's thrown its latest tech into the ring: the PowerShot SX280 HS is the first Canon model to introduce the Digic 6 processing engine. But by resting on the same 20x optical zoom and 12.1-megapixel...

    Canon PowerShot N review

    By 8 May 2013

    Bijou beauty or mediocre miniaturisation? In truth, there's a bit of both in the PowerShot N, Canon's truly compact compact. On the whole, though, this clever re-imagining of how cameras should look and perform puts the bias strongly towards the former....

    Canon EOS 100D review

    By 7 May 2013

    When Canon came to update the EOS 650D DSLR it did something not entirely expected: while the inevitable EOS 700D surfaced, so too did the brand new EOS 100D, a shrunken DSLR some 25 per cent smaller and 28 per cent lighter than the DSLR. A whole new...

    Sony NEX-6 review

    By 2 May 2013

    When we first saw the Sony NEX-6 ahead of its launch towards the end of 2012 we were impressed with how it seemed to encapsulate the very spirit of what, in our view, a compact system camera should be. The NEX-6 is small yet comes complete with a built-in...

    Panasonic HX-A100 review

    By 1 May 2013

    Cameras for outdoor activities are all the rage these days. It's a segment that, while not invented by GoPro, has certainly been popularised by that company. These days though, the uses for rugged technology that can produce great quality pictures while...

    Sony NEX-5R review

    By 29 April 2013

    The NEX-5R is the product of Sony's continuing refinement of its compact system cameras. We're already fans of the interchangeable lens series, and found the previous NEX-5N model to be a little star in the image quality department, but a little behind...

    HTC One camera review

    By 26 April 2013

    When a smartphone shouts about its camera as being something special it turns a lot of heads. We've already seen and reviewed the HTC One and love it as a smartphone. It's an ace device. But what of its "Ultrapixel" camera - is it really as "ultra" as...

    Sony F65 4K camera, hands-on with the camera used to shoot Oblivion and After Earth

    By 25 April 2013

    If you truly want to embrace the 4K "experience" as a moviemaker, adopting a fully digital workflow makes sense. Announced in 2011, the Sony F65 is the big daddy of the 4K camera world, capable of shooting at 8K resolution and coming with a number of...

    Sony Cyber-shot HX50 pictures and hands-on

    By 24 April 2013

    The travel zoom keeps on giving and Sony wants to be the company to give - well, sell - the most: the introduction of the Sony Cyber-shot HX50 will see the Japanese giant be able to boast that it makes the smallest and lightest 30x compact in the world....

    Hands on: Panasonic Lumix LF1 review

    By 24 April 2013

    The Panasonic Lumix LF1 is no ordinary high-spec compact camera: it comes complete with a built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF) the likes of which we've not seen in such a small compact camera before. As you can tell from our front-on lead picture it's...

    Hands on: Panasonic Lumix G6 review

    By 24 April 2013

    Like a G6: Panasonic's speedy new compact system camera has landed, but the Lumix G6 doesn't come with its own Far East Movement pop theme tune. Instead it comes loaded with a 16-megapixel sensor, the latest Venus processing engine, a built-in OLED viewfinder...

    Pentax MX-1 review

    By 23 April 2013

    The Pentax MX-1 is a camera with historical grounding. This digital reimagining of the film-based MX-series isn't an interchangeable lens camera like the original DSLR, instead it's a smaller-scale, 1/1.7-inch sensor compact camera with a built-in 28-112mm...
