| The Bottom Line | The Canon PowerShot A590 IS's manual exposure controls and surprisingly sharp pictures make it a great choice for almost anyone looking for a sub-$200 shooter. | Though we'd like it to perform better, dSLR shooters looking for a sidekick camera will find the Canon PowerShot S95's top-flight photos and a full manual feature set worth the tradeoff of its compact size. | If you're looking for a nice, simple ultracompact for use indoors and out, you'll want to strongly consider the Canon PowerShot Elph 300 HS. | As long as you're not in a hurry and your subject is stationary, the Canon PowerShot A1200 is an excellent little camera for the money. | Feature junkies in search of a compact megazoom should get the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V. |
