The Bottom Line	The Olympus FE-300 stands out as a surprisingly small, inexpensive 12-megapixel shooter, though its pictures aren't as impressive as its price.	The Olympus FE-3010 is a good-looking ultracompact camera that takes pictures--eventually.	The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is an excellent, well-balanced compact camera.	Simple and stylish, the Canon PowerShot SD1200 IS is a fine back-pocket camera as long as your photo-quality expectations are reasonable.	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.
