| The Bottom Line | We wouldn't rely on this camera to document special occasions, but it'll do in a pinch. | The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is an excellent, well-balanced compact camera. | 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. | The Canon PowerShot SD980 IS is a very good touch-screen camera for those on the fence about using a touch-screen camera. |
