Summary: The Samsung WB700 is the latest gadget to hit the South Korean company's compact camera range, offering a host of high-end features and a staggering 18x optical zoom. It's not particularly small, but it's much more convenient than taking an SLR and a...

Conclusion: Aside from slightly poor performance in low light levels, the Samsung WB700 is a great all-round camera. Sure, it's not small enough to slip into most pockets, but it's a lot more compact than DSLRs, bridge cameras or Micro Four Thirds cameras, and the...

Conclusion: This is a fuss free way for those on a smaller budget to get that must-have big zoom on a pocket camera. OK, so it may not be the most elegant looking camera ever nor does it have the top end specs like Full HD video, but for the price we have very few...

Pro : Expansive focal range in a compact chassis, affordable, easy to use, one touch video recording, HDMI output port, collection of manual shooting settings
