Kyocera Finecam SL400R
The 4-megapixel Kyocera Finecam SL400R is a quick performer and is a lot of fun and easy to shoot, thanks in large part to its unusual pivoting lens. But the camera's lack of a lens cap means you've got to be careful about what else you have in your pocket. This, combined with mediocre image quality, makes the SL400R great for lovers of pricey, stylish gadgets but a poor value for the general consumer.

Nikon Coolpix 4200
The excellent 1.8-inch LCD, with 130,000 pixels, is one of the sharpest we've tested. The screen tilts, swivels, and rotates for easy viewing of over-the-head or low-angle shots. The live-image preview has a clever real-time exposure histogram guide, where a grid overlay appears red in highlighted areas and blue in underexposed areas, enabling you to obtain near-perfect exposures in difficult lighting situations.
The C-5060's closest competitor is the new Canon PowerShot G5, which offers similar performance at a slightly higher price. But the C-5060's wider lens and lower price make it stand out, especially if you need that extra few millimeters of wide-angle coverage.

Olympus Camedia C-5060
The new 5.1-megapixel Olympus Camedia C-5060 camera ($700 street) gives wide-angle shooters something to cheer about. In spite of the huge variety of digital cameras on the market, relatively few offer true wide-angle coverage without the use of bulky add-on lenses.
The C-5060 body design is almost identical to that of its predecessor, the C-5050, which will remain in production. The C-5060's 4X zoom lens covers an effective 27 to 110 mm (35-mm camera equivalent) versus the C-5050's more modest 35- to 105-mm film-equivalent lens. The wide-angle capabilities make the C-5060 ideal for taking building interiors, scenic shots, and panoramas, but low-light shooters may prefer the C-5050.
