Product name	Pentax Optio W10	Olympus E-P2	Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1	Canon PowerShot S90
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	6 Good	7.8 Excellent	8 Excellent	7.2 Very good
Review Summary	If you can get past its poor performance, the waterproof Pentax Optio W10 can take some pretty good shots where others can't even go.	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.	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.
