The positives of the Optio A10 are,

• 'Very good image quality with good light.
• Excellent metering.
• Reliable white balance.

• Limited autonomy on a single battery charge.'

A review has been written on the Ricoh Caplio RR660 by ThinkCamera where they state, 'Don't read the criticism of image quality and think this is a bad camera. It is a cheap camera with enough quality to provide snaps in good light. It is unfair to compare the image quality against cameras costing more than twice as much. If what you want is a beach and holiday camera then this is well worth consideration. If you demand higher quality or want more control then you may need to spend a little more money.' ' In the right conditions, the Ricoh Caplio rr660 is capable of decent snapshots.' 'The rr660 takes a leisurely 5 seconds or so to power up. This camera is built for price rather than speed and it's no surprise that the shot to shot time isn't that great. There is no burst mode.'

A review of the Pentax Optio T10 was completed by LetsGoDigital where they write, 'The Pentax T10 is an attractive camera with an intuitive operation. The use of a touch-screen in combination with the beautiful 3 inch monitor adds a considerable surplus value to the camera. The Pentax Optio T10 has a compact size, can easily be carried along in a trouser pocket, and guarantees an excellent photo quality. The user that values ease and convenience will find this camera offers plenty of options, and even the trendy photographer is likely to be charmed by the features and functions on the Pentax Optio T10. Trendy, eye-catching and innovative are the keywords for the Pentax Optio T10. A most successful concept!'

The folks at TrustedReviews have a review on the Sanyo VPC-HD1 where they write, 'Sanyo’s Xacti range of still/video cameras has been around since 2004, although previous models have suffered from poor picture quality and limited shooting time on standard SD cards. However the latest model, the VPC-HD1, looks a lot more promising,' The Sanyo VPC-HD1 is very expensive, and has lower photographic quality than a dedicated 5-megapixel still camera, however it is a unique product that offers features that can’t be found elsewhere. Build quality, handling and performance are good, and it is the closest thing yet to a successful hybrid still/video camera.'

The group at Thinkcamera has a review on the Samsung Digimax L60 where they write, 'The Samsung L60 offers a neat, no-nonsense design. However, underneath the plain façade and interface, there are a whole raft of additional features one doesn't expect to find in the depths of the menu. This is a next generation offering which is quick and feature packed.... This camera suits a fun experimenter. The buttons are small and fidgety, so try the camera first and see if you are comfortable with it. The software is very good and the built-in montage features - such as the custom frames and composite offer great “scrap book” fun (ideal for kids).' The Samsung Digimax camera would make a nice birthday gift.

The PhotographyBlog has a review on the Pentax Optio S7 where they write, 'The Optio S7 is the latest model in the PENTAX Optio S series, which is known for slim, stylish, full-featured digital camera bodies. In addition to an upgrade to 7.0 effective megapixels, this model features an easy-to-use Blur Reduction High ISO mode to help reduce the effects of camera shake and subject blurring for sharper images even in dim lighting conditions such as night scenes and indoor sporting events. In this mode, the camera adjusts shutter speeds automatically to an ISO as high as 1600 to match the brightness of the subject.'

The group at Infosync has a review on the HP Photosmart R927 in which they say, 'The HP Photosmart R927 isn't the most chic digicam on the market, but it takes very good photos and offers tons of scene modes and in-camera tweaks.

The group at PCmag has a review on the HP Photosmart R927 where they noticed the Pros being, 'Large, 3-inch screen. On-screen image advice. 17 shooting modes and 12 artistic effects. Very good boot-up time.' Cons was a shutter lag and they also say, 'The HP Photosmart R927 is a solid camera that offers myriad features, from capture options and shooting modes to an unusual "tummy tuck" feature. If you don't mind the noticeable shutter lag, then ditch the diet and opt for this affordable camera.'

The group at Photography Blog has a review on the Ricoh Caplio R4 where the write, 'The main attractions of the R4 remain the same. A point and shoot camera that can easily fit in your pocket, yet has a massive 7x wide-angle optical zoom lens. A camera that is easy-to-use, well-built and stylish in an understated kind of way, with a genuinely useful anti-shake system. The Ricoh Caplio R4's image quality is still not great, but it does represent a small step forward, making this a more complete package than the R3. The R4 isn't worth upgrading to from the R3, but it's definitely worth a look if you want a camera that offers something a little different to the norm.'

A great review by Trusted Reviews on the Acer CP-8660 was completed where they write, 'Battery life is good. The CP-8660 is powered by a fairly hefty 1250mAh Lithium-ion rechargeable battery. Acer makes no specific claims for its duration, but I took around 100 shots and several video clips with it and the battery indicator was still registering as 2/3 full. Assuming it is accurate I would estimate that it’s good for at least 250-300 shots. The battery is charged in the camera by a supplied mains adapter.Another major plus point is the excellent 2.8 inch LCD monitor. It has a quick response time, and with 230k pixels it is nice and sharp.

Picture quality is of course the most important criteria, and here the CP-8660 can provide good results under the right circumstances. Colour rendition is very natural, and in good light and normal conditions the exposure system produces generally nice shots. Oddly the ‘vivid’ colour mode didn’t appear to make any difference to colour rendition at all.'
