The PowerShot S70 costs more than many point-and-shoots, but the payoff of a wide-angle lens, 7.1 megapixels, and superior picture quality will be worth it for advanced hobbyists.

Although it's quite bulky, the S80 offers an excellent list of features for a compact digital camera.

Much lighter and smaller point-and-shoot cameras are available, but the S60 is a great choice for people seeking a camera that has powerful creative controls.

A pricey camera that offers never before seen technology, but ultimately unless you are a touch screen fanatic, it isn't worth the price tag.

A really solid attempt by Kodak. If they improved the sensor on this model, and managed to squeeze a bit more life from the battery, they could have a winner on their hands.

This camera is a good choice if you want a high resolution compact camera, combining style, size and image quality into a single package.

For snap shooters who like big prints, the Sony is up to the task.

This very nice camera package would set you back a fair bit of money, but would be worth it for many people.
