The PowerShot A800 is the cheapest point-and-shoot camera in Canon's 2011 line-up. It replaces the earlier A490 / A495 and sports 10 Megapixels, a 3.3x optical zoom and a 2.5in screen. It's a basic specification, but crucially hits a price-point lower than any Canon compact before it.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ18 / ZS8 – full review!

Camera Labs and DSLR Tips latest news and reviews        Go to the original article...

Panasonic's Lumix DMC-TZ18 / ZS8, is the simpler and more affordable version of the Lumix DMC-TZ20 / ZS10 pocket super-zoom. It shares the same 16x optical zoom, the same 14.1 Megapixel resolution and the same degree of auto and manual control, all packed into much the same body. So while the TZ18 / ZS8 may be lacking the bells and whistles of the TZ20 / ZS10, it delivers the same core functionality at a lower price; some might even prefer the quality from its CCD sensor. Does this make it the preferred pocket super-zoom for budget buyers? Find out in our Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ18 / ZS8 review where we'll compare its quality and features directly against the TZ20 / ZS10.
