At the top of its new range is this, the impressive 8.2 megapixel Caplio GX8. It is currently the most powerful compact digital camera we’ve seen, a full megapixel ahead of its nearest competition. At the time of this review, if you want more pixels than this you’ll have to buy a digital SLR costing over £3,000. Since the GX8 is available for £239.99 it has more shooting power per pound than pretty much anything else on the market."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/4276full.jpg" /><br /><br />The Caplio GX8 is a technical marvel with superb adaptability, outstanding performance, some very useful features and good handling. For the price it offers more pixel power than almost anything else on the market. However, I don't believe that this camera has the widest range of features. Look at this camera if you are simply looking for raw pixel power and you are working with a small budget.
