The Bottom Line	Though the S500 is a respectable pocket snapshot camera, its performance and its feature set make it seem creaky next to the competition.	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.
