Compact cameras with big screens

We all know that familiar moment where, after taking a group photo, everyone crowds around you and tries to get a glimpse of the picture. But the screen is so small anyone could have missed out the details. To your horror, you discover that Uncle Fred's eyes are closed only after you have made the print. Oh well. Give these five compacts some consideration. With a larger screen, viewing and framing a picture are going to be far easier.

	1.	Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300   CNET Asia rating: 7.6 out of 10 The good: Fast performance; tons of handy image editing and playback features; zoom rocker is in a much more comfortable position. The bad: Soft, noisy photos. The bottom line: A great design, fast shooting, and lots of features can't overcome the fact that the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300 simply doesn't take very good pictures.

	2.	Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX520   CNET Asia rating: 8 out of 10 The good: Stylish design; intuitive 3-inch touchscreen; manual exposure control; 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens; improved image quality. The bad: Slow startup time; Face Detection didn't recognize faces with spectacles; oddly shaped stylus. The bottom line: Besides the startup time and stylus, it is hard to find fault with the FX520. Image quality has also improved and we really like the features that are incorporated with the touchscreen. Screen size: 3 inch Review | See full specs | Rate this
	3.	Canon Digital IXUS 90 IS   CNET Asia rating: 7.1 out of 10 The good: Stylish retro design; optical image stabilizer; fast auto focus The bad: Scroll wheel not intuitive; high noise level above ISO 800 The bottom line: Despite a paucity of features, the IXUS 90 feels substantial, thanks to its sturdy build, quirky controls, large screen and respectable picture quality.

	4.	Kodak EasyShare M1033   CNET Asia rating: 7 out of 10 The good: Brilliant color reproduction, HD video capture, sleek design.

The bottom line: The impressive image quality tempted us to forgive the M1033 for its less-than-expected performance. Screen size: 3 inch Review | See full specs | Rate this
	5.	Nikon Coolpix S52c   The aesthetics isn't much of a difference from its predecessor, the S51c, but Nikon's new Wi-Fi-enabled S52c has undergone some minor upgrades like a higher resolution of 9 megapixels and increased ISO sensitivity of 3,200. If you have a my Picturetown account, you can upload your snaps from the point-and-shoot via wireless network to your online album. It comes with the usual fare of face detection, 3x optical zoom and Nikon's proprietary vibration reduction (VR) image stabilization system. Screen size: 3 inch See full specs | Rate this
