We got our hands on Canon's new pancake lens, aimed specifically at DSLR videographers.

In a declining compact market, camera manufacturers are turning their attentions to producing better image quality in what seems like ever smaller packages.

Updated Sony's Alpha 37 is the latest camera to sit in the company's entry-level DSLT lineup, with a 16.1MP sensor and Bionz processor.

The slimline Panasonic FX80 features a bright 24mm Leica lens, but is its image quality up to scratch?

This cute, 10.1 megapixel camera has a features list longer than Ben Hur. But is this specced-up compact worth its high price?

The Leica X2 is a compact camera with an APS-C format sensor and a price tag that's higher than many DSLRs'.

Is the combination of the Pentax K-mount with mirrorless technology and Marc Newson design, a marriage made in heaven?

It's just like the Leica M9 digital rangefinder, but it only shoots monochrome images and costs a bit more.

Does the entry-level Sony NEX-F3 improve enough on the 16MP NEX-C3 by adding a built-in flash, Full HD video and tiltable screen?

A step up from the Ricoh CX5, the CX6 adds aperture/shutter priority, continuous AF shooting modes and speed. It's a quality compact.

Does a snapshot camera really need two shutter release buttons? Pentax's 20x optical zoom VS20 thinks so.

Sony's latest combatant in the superzoom war is this chunky, mini DSLR-styled model with a 30x zoom.

The Fuji FinePix XP150 has been designed to combat all manner of weather conditions with its robust build and high sensitivity GPS.

Updated Panasonic has seen great success with its small and beginner-friendly Lumix GF3. So how does its successor, the GF5, shape up?

With an impressive 24x superzoom lens and 14MP resolution for under £200, what's the catch with this compact travel camera?

Samsung has seen a less than enthusiastic response to its mirrorless offerings. Can Wi-Fi and a 20.3MP sensor turn that around?

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ30 is one of the most fully-featured travel compacts available. Can its images match its versatility?

The Olympus OM-D is the first camera in what appears to be a whole new line-up for the company, we put it well and truly through its paces to see if it lives up to its high price tag.

Comprising a translucent umbrella and grip, the kit enables the photographer to shoot through the umbrella with a flashgun.

With 10.1MP, 12x zoom and Digic 5 processor in a tiny body, is this Canon IXUS camera a triumph of form and function?

Apart from its pixel count, the specification of the Canon 5D Mk III makes familiar reading. But there's plenty to get excited about.

The Panasonic Lumix 3D1 uses touchscreen technology to shoot true 3D stills and HD video. But is decent 3D enough to sell it?

Nikon's D3s has a great reputation among pro photographers, so the D4 that replaces it has a lot to live up to. Does it succeed?

With a 12.5x zoom and 16MP backlit CMOS sensor, the Olympus SH-21 is aimed at those wanting to travel light. But can it perform?

Updated Fuji's 16MP XPro1 combines retro styling and control with advanced digital technology to turn heads in the photographic world.
