We like:
Wide-angle lens; long zoom; excellent images
We don't like:
Small screen; no manual controls
CNET UK judgement:
It may not be the smallest or prettiest snapper around, but the TZ4 does the business where it counts. A wide-angle 28mm lens and 10x zoom combined with capable automatic settings give great image quality, in what is one of the friendliest and most portable superzooms around
Full review:
It may have the looks of a compact camera, but the 8-megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 has the power of a superzoom in a small package. It sports a large 10x zoom lens made by Leica, with a satisfying 28mm wide angle. It's available now for around £180 online. Continue Reading...

Ticks numerous boxes, but it's not especially cheap and not particularly exciting

The S90 is the enthusiast's dream, offering compactness, great image quality and superb controls

Disappointing. The hybrid touchscreen interface is lacklustre overall, and the lens isn't that good

Very expensive, but, as soon as you pick it up, you know this camera is special
