The Bottom Line	For the money, you'd have a hard time finding a better snapshot camera.	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.	The Kodak EasyShare M1093 IS is a perfectly capable, inexpensive ultracompact point-and-shoot camera.	Simple and stylish, the Canon PowerShot SD1200 IS is a fine back-pocket camera as long as your photo-quality expectations are reasonable.
