 |  |  | | | | | | | | | Hello and welcome!
We really are spoilt for choice. Having just taken part in the Gear of the Year (GOTY) 2013 voting, and spent an entire morning splitting hairs about which camera should win because it's got one more megapixel than the other, it's obvious that we've never had so much quality kit to choose from. News of Panasonic's retro-styled GX7 adds yet another covetable CSC to the pile – you can read more about this below. Keep your eyes peeled for the GOTY results later in the year.
Below you'll also find great competitions, exclusive offers and expert advice - enjoy! |

With a new 16MP Live MOS sensor, Touch AF and the world's first 90ยบ tilt-able Live View Finder, this G series compact system camera combines retro design with state of the art technology. With exciting new launches from Panasonic and Fuji (check out the X-M1), the CSC market has never been so enticing.
