Plenty of people have switched to smartphones for their photography needs, but that doesn’t mean standalone cameras are dead just yet. Companies like Fuji, Canon and Olympus continue to make great DSLRs and interchangeable lens cameras for photographers who are serious about their picture-taking. But what about users who aren’t that advanced, but still want something that packs a little more oomph than the average smartphone? There’s a sub-category of cameras just for that, known as compacts. They’re easy enough for a novice to use, but still offer plenty of options for experienced users. We’ve taken a look at a few of the more outstanding models on the market to help you decide whether it’s worth carrying a separate camera for those precious photogenic moments.
