The Bottom Line	The Nikon Coolpix 5200 is an easy-to-use ultracompact for newbies who want to print big, but image-quality-conscious buyers should stay away.	Canon's SX120 IS pocket megazoom falls behind the competition in every aspect except photo quality.	The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is an excellent, well-balanced compact camera.	If you don't mind its extra bulk and narrow lens, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H20 is an otherwise excellent compact megazoom camera.	Simple and stylish, the Canon PowerShot SD1200 IS is a fine back-pocket camera as long as your photo-quality expectations are reasonable.
