We like:
Excellent Face Detection 2.0; great looks; fun scroll wheel
We don't like:
No real manual control; faceplate can open in your pocket
CNET UK judgement:
The Fujifilm FinePix Z100fd is an excellent point-and-shoot. Experienced photographers might be disappointed by the paucity of manual controls, but a first-class face detection system, capable automatic settings and a large screen make the Z100fd good value for money -- and it looks great

Canon PowerShot A2100 IS
We wish it were slightly faster, but it offers a useful 6x zoom and great photo quality
Canon PowerShot A480
Fuss-free compact that takes good photos given the price. Just don't expect too much from it
Canon Digital IXUS 990 IS
Good camera, but it's underspecified and overpriced, even compared to other IXUS models
Fujifilm FinePix S1500
Its lens and image quality aren't great, but it's a good option for beginner photographers
