The Bottom Line	Manual control and 5 megapixels may seem enticing for this price, but the Samsung Digimax S500's poor image quality will bring you back to reality.	The Olympus FE-3010 is a good-looking ultracompact camera that takes pictures--eventually.	As one of the only pocketable cameras with a 10X zoom lens, the Kodak EasyShare V610 is on the cutting edge of design; we just wish the image quality were better.	A basic camera, the Olympus Stylus 500 Digital is a good option for outdoorsy snapshot photographers who don't want to worry about the weather or fuss with camera settings.	The Olympus FE-3010 is a good-looking ultracompact camera that takes pictures--eventually.
