'great 'carry-everywhere' camera'

'We really don't have many complaints about this latest addition to the OM-D line, which is stuffed with great features.'

'built-in flash'

'Like just about every model in the FujiFilm CSC line-up, the FujiFilm X-T10 is a great camera. '

'classic look'

'Like almost every other new camera, the X-T10 features built-in Wi-Fi. '

'logical enough rear control layout'

'very capable camera'

'Good ISO performer.'

'The Nikon 1 J5 is a good camera for other casual consumers as well that want more than they can snap with their smartphone. '

'All in all, though, the Samsung NX500 is a fun, great little camera. '

'The Samsung NX500 is a promising camera with excellent imaging capabilities, but a few things hold it back from getting top marks. '

'With the exception of a viewfinder, the NX500 offers a pretty enticing collection of features.'

'terrific camera'

'The Nikon D5500 is a minor update to an excellent camera, the D5300. '

'excellent and affordable DSLR camera'

'The overall feature set of the D5500 is great.'

'It’s a good option for new DSLR buyers.'

'very capable camera'

'There's no mistaking it; this is definitely a Panasonic hybrid.'

'a broad feature set'

'The pop-up flash worked well indoors, with no red-eye and good overall exposure. '

'Initial impressions of the new Canon EOS M3 are mostly favourable.'

'The EOS M3 is Canon's most serious mirrorless camera to date.'

'very well-designed mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera'

'Useful live view and great screen. '

'excellent compact system camera'

'But just because it's affordable doesn't mean it feels cheap per se; the GF7 isn't the very best built Lumix camera in the range, as price dictates, but this small-scale model is well crafted all things considered. '

'180° tiltable touchscreen'

'The RAW files were also excellent, with usable images throughout the entire range of ISO 200-6400.'

'Picture quality up to ISO 3200.'

'good-looking, well-made camera'

'Outstanding image quality and performance make this classically designed rangefinder model a must have for anyone looking to upgrade from a point-n-shoot or just someone looking for a compact ILC to travel with.'

'In-body image stabilization.'

'Battery here life is a respectable rather than exceptional 350 images from a full charge – but that is about average for a compact system camera in this suggested £499 price bracket. '
