GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Holidays, Casual Shooting & Fujifilm Colour Fans — QuickSnap Flash 400: Fujifilm's disposable camera favourite — cooler tones and fine grain give a different character to Kodak. The go-to for those who prefer Fuji's aesthetic.
Outdoor & Adventure — OM-5 (2022): The toughest camera at this price — IP53 weather sealing and 7.5-stop IBIS built for adventure photographers.
Who should buy what
OM-5 (2022)

- Travellers who want MFT's compact size with pro-level weather protection
