Video cameras

The best webcam we’ve seen yet, but it’s expensive and you’ll need a fast upload speed to benefit from it.

Detailed 1080p footage in good lighting conditions, but design issues and low light performance mean it isn’t for everyone.

Cameras Compact cameras

Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-LX5 replaces the LX3 as the ultimate enthusiast compact, but at around £400 it’s not cheap. If the LX5’s excellent high ISO performance, great video mode and versatile 24-90mm lens sound attractive, it’s the best compact in town, but otherwise the LX3 is still a great camera and it’s almost £100 cheaper.

Samsung's EX1 is a very good camera that enthusiasts will love. It's got an excellent lens and the articulated screen is useful, but it doesn't quite do enough to beat the cheaper LX3.

Panasonic HDC-SD600 review
Video cameras

A brilliant HD camcorder for casual users who want great-looking video, but enthusiasts should plump for the SD700 or a video-capable DSLR instead.

Cameras DSLRs

Panasonic's G2 is a well-specified camera and the new kit lens is a great upgrade, but its image quality still can't match comparably priced DSLRs.
