The Bottom Line	The SD400's improved image quality makes this high-performance ultracompact one of the better choices in the current Canon Digital Elph lineup.	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.	Simple and stylish, the Canon PowerShot SD1200 IS is a fine back-pocket camera as long as your photo-quality expectations are reasonable.	One of the best ultracompacts available, the Canon PowerShot SD940 IS nonetheless falls short of greatness in performance and photo quality.	If you need an ultracompact camera for your pocket or purse, strongly consider the Canon PowerShot SD780 IS.
