Final decisions on ultracompact cameras: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35 vs. Canon Powershot SD790 IS

!>http://www.trustedreviews.com/images/article/summary/8006.jpg!

Overall, it is interesting how cameras have not improved much from my trusty “SD500”:http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/canon/powershot_sd500-review/ and Fuji “F11 […]

No Compact Camera for a prosumer? GX200, DP1, G9, SD950 compared
