The Bottom Line	With heavy image noise and merely decent performance, there are better budget cameras available than the Canon PowerShot A460.	The Canon PowerShot A480 may be a basic low-priced compact camera, but at least it takes good photos.	Aside from a couple performance quibbles, the Canon PowerShot A1100 IS provides a good point-and-shoot experience with great pictures as a result.	The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is an excellent, well-balanced compact camera.	Kodak's EasyShare M1033 is a better-than-average budget ultracompact.
