The Bottom Line While the Canon PowerShot SD870 IS doesn't have an optical viewfinder or manual exposure controls, it captures beautiful images with its wide, 3.8x optical zoom lens and ranks among the top compact cameras we've seen. The Canon PowerShot SD980 IS is a very good touch-screen camera for those on the fence about using a touch-screen camera. 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. Don't let its new sensor technology scare you off: the Fujifilm FinePix F200EXR is an excellent compact camera with shooting features for just about every type of user. Simply put, the Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is an excellent point-and-shoot camera.
