Product name	Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX3	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	The LX3 is a good camera with an excellent feature set that positions it way beyond any conventional point-and-shoot on the retail shelves today.	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.
