The Bottom Line	The Canon PowerShot G7 is a solid enthusiast camera for those who've ruled out a budget dSLR.	As long as you're not expecting dSLR speed in a tiny body, the Canon PowerShot S90 is an excellent compact camera for advanced amateurs.	The Canon PowerShot G10 is a solid enthusiast digital camera for those who want something compact to complement a dSLR.		A few performance issues with the Nikon Coolpix P5000 diminish the appeal of an otherwise nice compact camera for amateurs.
