Product name	Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS	Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1	Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1	Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	7.6 Excellent	7.6 Excellent
Review Summary	While the Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS doesn't have an optical viewfinder or manual exposure controls, it captures beautiful images with its wide, 3.8x optical zoom lens and ranks among the top compact cameras we've seen.	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.	If you can forgo the shooter's boring design and lack of HD video recording, the F70EXR has a lot to offer.
