Typical price: £240
What is it: 10-megapixel ultracompact camera with 5x optical zoom
What we think: Its ultra-stylish, lightweight body is sure to impress on first sight, but beyond that it falls short

We like:
Optical image stabilisation; 89mm touchscreen LCD; pretty; fun features
We don't like:
Comparatively slow interface; relatively slow for its class; soft images; all but the power and shutter are touchscreen controlled
CNET UK judgement:
Fun features and chic styling make the Nikon Coolpix S60 a tasty choice for casual point-and-shoot use. However, if you need speed or snapshot perfection, this isn't your camera

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
