Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX100
If you absolutely must have a 12-megapixel compact camera, the DMC-FX100 isn't a bad choice, but you can find better performing cameras with lower pixel counts for the same money.
Canon PowerShot G10
The Canon PowerShot G10 is a solid digital camera for enthusiasts who want something more compact to complement a dSLR, but its performance leaves something to be desired.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W300
Although we like the features and image quality of the W300, it lacks a wide-angle lens which has become a must-have for a premium shooter. While other alternatives in the market may not offer as high a capture resolution as the Sony, they do make up with other features.
Fujifilm FinePix F100fd
Despite an awkwardly positioned flash unit, the F100fd didn't disappoint with its enhanced feature set and excellent image quality.
Canon Digital IXUS 960 IS
Canon's Digital IXUS 960 IS looks great and can take very nice images, but the digital camera's whopping 12 megapixels will leave you waiting between shots.
Megapixels vs. camera sensitivity
If you squeeze more megapixels onto a sensor of a given size, a camera works worse in dim conditions. So what's better, more megapixels or higher sensitivity?
PMA 2008: Pre-show predictions
What will the world's largest international photo imaging event showcase? We dare some predictions.
Higher resolutions: 12-megapixel cameras
Cameras might be staying small, but their photos are getting bigger than ever. While once only digital SLRs could hit such high resolutions, now even inch-thick point-and-shoot cameras can reach or surpass 12 megapixels.
