Product name	Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX55	Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1	Olympus E-P2	Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	6.6 Very good	8 Excellent	CNET Asia editor's take	7.6 Excellent
Review Summary	The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX55 is a cute compact camera that sports a nice wide-angle lens, but its so-so image quality keeps it from reaching its full potential.	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.
