The Bottom Line	Generally efficient design, top-tier performance, and features galore make the A2 a top choice for resolution-hungry enthusiasts.	This competent 8-megapixel camera sacrifices the great EVF and the speed of the Dimage A2 but keeps the rest.	Like the D80 before it, the Nikon D90 delivers an excellent dSLR for the money.	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.
