The Bottom Line	High-quality optics and two image stabilization modes deliver good image quality in an ultracompact package.

A full-featured waterproof/shockproof pocket point-and-shoot, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 is a near-perfect rugged camera for everyday use.	The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1 is a great, fast-performing snapshot camera that falters on photo quality.	With a wide-angle, megazoom lens, a quick AF system, and generally high-quality snapshot photos, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZR1 is a standout compact megazoom.
