Review Summary

A stylishly designed ultracompact that grabs most of the best features from other diminutive camera makes.

Olympus second effort for Micro Four Thirds camera feels somewhat half-hearted, but users who wish to try their hands on this new format will find the E-P2 an attractive choice.

The GF1 is a very appealing choice for enthusiasts and users who wish to upgrade from a point-and-shoot.

The TX1's slim body and design will appeal to the fashion-conscious crowd, but some users may not like the photo quality.
