The L74 is a solid, all-metal compact with just a handful of controls
Another feature that may draw your attention is the 28mm wide-angle zoom lens
The rear of the camera is dominated by the 3-inch LCD
The L74 laps up indoor flash photos, pushing out just enough light to illuminate without overwhelming or burning out
Bags of chromatic fringing and distortion are saved by crisp definition in the centre and sympathetic exposure: the lush greens of the forest plants are rich and dark
Smooth, even and warm tones all round even with the dull lighting. There's no sign of the face-detection system working
