8.  Olympus Mju TOUGH-8000
 
CNET Asia rating: 7.2 out of 10
The good: Toughest camera in its class; Beauty mode quirky if a bit useless; bright LCD screen.
The bad: Incredibly bright flash; average image quality; only incremental updates to the 1030SW; no high-definition video.
The bottom line: While the Tough-8000 may be the most rugged camera on the market, it didn't impress us in terms of image quality and performance.

10.  Nikon Coolpix S60
 
CNET Asia rating: 7 out of 10
The good: Interesting touchscreen interface; iPhone-like playback navigation; lush 3.5-inch LCD.
The bad: Below-average image quality; no control over zoom speed.
The bottom line: The S60 tries hard to differentiate itself from other shooters by having innovative navigation options, but sadly its image quality isn't up to expectations.
