| The Bottom Line | Aside from one or two very minor lens shortcomings, Canon's new flagship S-series model stands out in its class. | 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. | As long as you don't want much in the way of manual features, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 is a very nice camera that can handle a variety of shooting situations. | The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is an excellent, well-balanced compact camera. | One of the best ultracompacts available, the Canon PowerShot SD940 IS nonetheless falls short of greatness in performance and photo quality. |
