We like:
Superb styling and finish; pocket-sized dimensions and rounded corners; good picture quality; easy to use; responsive

Photos: Hands-on with the Canon Digital IXUS 100 IS

Nikon Coolpix S640
Doesn't excel in any one area, but it's a good all-rounder that should serve snapshooters well
Kodak EasyShare M381
Sound choice for casual snapshooters on a budget, but its rivals offer more features
Kodak EasyShare Z950
Its lack of gimmicks is refreshing and it offers good photo quality for the price, as well as manual controls
Canon PowerShot SX20 IS
Has more megapixels than its predecessor, but it's generally slower, and its photos could be sharper
