Typical price: £190
What is it: Attractive 10-megapixel compact with wide-angle lens
What we think: Despite its good looks, it's slow and underfeatured with an occasionally annoying interface

We like:
Compact and attractive; very nice outdoor photos; optical image stabilisation; relatively wide-angle lens
We don't like:
Annoying interface conventions; slow shot-to-shot performance
CNET UK judgement:
A good, though not outstanding, compact camera, the Nikon Coolpix S600 is hindered by some shortcomings in its performance and operation

Photos: Hands-on with the Nikon Coolpix S210, S520 and S600
Nikon is predicting that the 8-megapixel Coolpix S210 and S520 will be big sellers this year, but we think it's the wide-angle, 10-megapixel S600 that deserves to fly off the shelves

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
