  • Nikon Coolpix S640

    The S640 boasts dSLR-like responsiveness and good pictures but is let down by its price and lack of competitive features like HD video.

  • Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR

    The S200EXR stands on its own as a hybrid between a superzoom and SLR, with a 14.3x optical zoom lens and Fuji's Super CCD sensor. Expect great pictures but be prepared for backaches.
