Product name	Nikon Coolpix 4600	Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1	Olympus E-P2	Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	6 Good	8 Excellent	CNET Asia editor's take	7.6 Excellent
Review Summary	The entry-level model in Nikon's low-cost point-and-shoot line, the Coolpix 4600 has several leading-edge features that help compensate for its limited ISO range and lack of manual settings.	The GF1 is a very appealing choice for enthusiasts and users who wish to upgrade from a point-and-shoot.	More info	The TX1's slim body and design will appeal to the fashion-conscious crowd, but some users may not like the photo quality.
