Introduction

Fujifilm is taking the plunge with the FinePix FZ33WP, the company's first waterproof point and shoot camera. We tried a pre-production model of the 10-megapixel camera at the PMA show in Las Vegas, and it looked to be an interesting choice for a day at the beach; the camera is cute, small and comes in a variety of colors to match this year's swimsuit color. However, it is a bit awkward to handle; the small size of the camera means that the zoom control on the back is not easy to reach.

Panasonic Lumix FZ150

Excellent image quality, speedy performance, and a great design add up to the best superzoom that has ever graced our labs. That distinction seems to change hands every week, but trust us when we say that the FZ150 is a truly great camera. Read full 16-part review

Sony Cyber-shot HX100V

This professionally-geared ultrazoom offers some of the best color accuracy we've ever seen. It's a shame the other scores weren't quite so strong. Read full 16-part review

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ47

Panasonic resists the urge to cram more megapixels and more focal length into their latest ultrazoom. The FZ47 instead focuses on image quality and features, resulting in an incredibly strong camera that we loved shooting with. Read full 16-part review
