    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...

    Canon PowerShot SX280 HS pictures and hands-on

    By 22 March 2013

    Canon's latest travel zoom compact, the PowerShot SX280 HS, updates 2012's SX260 model with Wi-Fi and is the very first Canon camera to boast the latest Digic 6 processor. Yup, it's out with Digic 5 and in with the new and more-powerful sixth-generation...

    Canon EOS 100D pictures and hands-on

    By 22 March 2013

    Canon's thinking big when it comes to small: the Canon EOS 100D is a brand new line to the EOS range, which undercuts its bigger brother 700D by 25 per cent size and 28 per cent weight. But is this mini a master of all things DSLR? Pocket-lint handled...

    Canon EOS 700D pictures and hands-on

    By 22 March 2013

    The Canon EOS 700D is, well, it's essentially the EOS 650D wrapped up in a body that's a teeny bit different than before - and nothing much more than that. Canon's annual DSLR update seems a little baffling in an isolated context, but as the 650D has...

    Canon PowerShot N pictures and hands-on

    By 8 January 2013

    Now here's something unexpected from Canon. The PowerShot N is an almost-square camera that just doesn't seem like the traditional Canon school of thought. Does that make it fun, or is the N just plain weird? The PowerShot N's shape might look strange,...

    Canon PowerShot SX160 IS review

    By 4 January 2013

    Sometimes budget precedes all else. Often that would put a Canon compact camera out of the purchase picture. But not so with the Canon PowerShot SX160 IS: this £140 budget compact not only has the price on its side, but also comes equipped with a wide-ranging...

    Canon EOS 6D review

    By 2 January 2013

    The Canon EOS 6D might sound like the dream ticket for full-frame DSLR aspirers. It's the first time that Canon's dipped its toe into the "budget" full-frame pond. But, to be realistic, its £1600 body-only asking price is still more the cash equivalent...

    Canon EOS M review

    By 14 December 2012

    The Canon EOS M heralds the biggest-selling camera manufacturer's entrance into the world of compact system cameras (CSC). With a large sensor just like a DSLR - in the case of the EOS M it's identical to that in the EOS 650D DSLR - but without the mirrorbox...

    Canon EOS 1D X review

    By 26 November 2012

    Various put-backs and delays had plagued the Canon EOS 1D X's path to the shelves, but Canon was in no rush to put out an inferior product. After all this is touted to be the world's best full-frame professional DSLR camera, as its near-£5000 body-only...

    Canon PowerShot G15 review

    By 9 November 2012

    The Canon PowerShot G15 has had a lot of time to ponder its market position. It's been two whole years since the launch of the previous G12 model, and it's used that time wisely - the G15 is smaller, sports a new design and simultaneously crams in a far...

    Canon PowerShot S110 review

    By 29 October 2012

    The Canon PowerShot S110 hits the shelves a little less than a year after the release of Canon’s previous high-end S100 compact. But, oh, how the high-end compact landscape has changed in that short time. An abundance of releases with all sorts of varying...

    Canon PowerShot SX50 HS review

    By 22 October 2012

    It's hard to ignore the Canon PowerShot's SX50 HS's 50x optical zoom. Never before has a superzoom laid a 24-1200mm equivalent lens on the features table - something that, in terms of maximum focal length, leaves all other superzooms in the shade. But...

    Canon PowerShot SX500 IS review

    By 28 September 2012

    It wasn’t so long ago that a 30x optical zoom was unheard of in a compact. Now it’s quite the norm for superzooms to have such far-reaching lenses, but the Canon PowerShot SX500 IS manages to squeeze its 24-720mm (equivalent) lens into a small body...
