Sony Alpha NEX-5R (Body Only, Black)

The NEX-5R is great for taking photos, not so much for sharing them.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200

For those searching for a long-zoom camera that falls in between a point-and-shoot and a digital-SLR experience, look no further.

Nikon Coolpix P7700

This enthusiast "compact" camera offers a comfortable, streamlined shooting design, but doesn't set us on fire.

Canon PowerShot G15

A fast lens pushes the Canon PowerShot G15 beyond its predecessor, but not quite to the front of the class.

Samsung Galaxy Camera

For those who love to shoot and share, but yearn for a "real camera" experience, this might be worth its high price.

Canon PowerShot S110 (Black)

It's still the smallest compact available with advanced features like raw support, but the S110 just doesn't feel like an enthusiast camera anymore.

Nikon D5200 (with 18-55mm lens, Black)

While the replacement for the D5100 hasn't been announced in the U.S., we're likely to see this solid-sounding upgrade.

Fujifilm FinePix S4200 (Black)

While its photos and performance aren't stellar, the S4200 is still a bargain camera for megazoom fans.
