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
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1
Very expensive, but, as soon as you pick it up, you know this camera is special
