- Polaroid launches XS80 1080p action camera

- Panasonic Lumix GF6 review

- A week in reviews: May 6 - May 10

- Canon PowerShot N review
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
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...
- A week in reviews: April 29 - May 3
After much waiting, the BlackBerry Q10 went on sale. To say that this is a make or break device for BlackBerry isn't overstating it. This is the product that will either save the firm, or push it further into the abyss. Why? Because this is its Qwerty...
- Sony NEX-6 review
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...

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
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
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
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...
