Product name	Nikon Coolpix 4600	Olympus E-P2	Canon PowerShot S90	Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	6 Good	CNET Asia editor's take	7.2 Very good	8 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.	More info	This advanced compact has a good range of shooting options to keep most shutterbugs occupied, but we think there is still room for improvement in some areas.	The GF1 is a very appealing choice for enthusiasts and users who wish to upgrade from a point-and-shoot.
