A stalwart of the digital photography industry for the past decade, the bridge camera forms a bridge between a compact point-and-shoot camera and a full-blown DSLR.





Looking for one compact ‘travel zoom’ camera that does it all? Well look no further than Sony’s new 16MP Cyber-Shot offering, the DSC-HX9V.





The second generation Sony NEX-5N sits in the middle of a revamped NEX compact system camera (CSC) range, just above the NEX-C3, with which it shares a 16.1MP effective resolution, and some way below the 24.3MP effective NEX-7.





The Panasonic Lumix TZ20 Pocket Camera could be the ultimate travel compact camera. With 3D shooting mode and HD recording, your travelling memories will be perfectly captured.





Although it has limited manual controls, the Nikon Coolpix S9100 has 12.1MP and full HD video recording, so you know you’re getting your money’s worth!





This mid-range D-SLR camera has HD recording and 18MP. If you’re new to photography, the Canon EOS 600D is a great starting point, with easy-to-use features.
