Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP8 (black)
The Lumix DMC-FP8 lives up to Panasonic's speedy performance claims; its photo quality isn't bad, either.
Canon PowerShot S90
As long as you're not expecting dSLR speed in a tiny body, the Canon PowerShot S90 is an excellent compact camera for advanced amateurs.
Samsung HZ15W
The Samsung HZ15W has good parts and features, but ultimately disappoints on the whole.
Casio Exilim EX-FC100 (black)
Casio provides affordable, advanced high-speed shooting for the masses with the Exilim EX-FC100, but other aspects lag behind its class.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 (with 20mm lens)
The best interchangeable-lens compact we've see thus far, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 delivers great photo quality and performance in an enthusiast-friendly shooting experience. Like competitors, however, the lack of an optical viewfinder limits its usability for photographing action.

How to file digital photographs on a computer

You may want to use an image management program to organize your photographs, but you can also do it quickly and easily with Windows Explorer.
How to develop digital photographs from home
Printing your digital photographs using an online photofinishing service is a great way to get traditional prints from the comfort of your own home.
