How can I find ratings of digital cameras that I am interested in buying?

I want to buy a ultracompact digital camera. How do I find out the pros and cons of each camera in the category to make a good decision?

The best digital camera comparision site is imaging-resource. You can configure side by side comparisions of sample images and specs. There are a few other sites that have great reviews but they don't include comparision tools. They are dpreview.com, megapixel.net and steves-digicams.com. Also, CNet is less "expert" but often has good comparisions. Photo.net is good for seasoned photographers. I'll include all the links below.

In my opinion, Canon is far and away the best ultracompact digital camera manufacturer. They are the only company that makes the lenses, sensors, and firmware themselves and it shows.

Dpreview.com typically has my favorite collection of digital camera reviews and information. There's also a convenient Buying Guide: Features Search section http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare.... where you can select "Ultra-Compact" as the format, and automatically have it compare some of the cameras that it reviews. You might have some luck browsing around and reading there too!

dpreview.com is the best site.
It's too technical for most people, but if you jump straight to the summary it is perfect for the typical buyer.

You may find the Photobird Digital Camera Buyer's Guide helpful:

It shows lots of cameras in an easy-to-read listing, along with links to the reviews that are available for each camera.

You can also see a list of just the ultra-compact (tiny) cameras:

... or ultracompact and compact:

There's a list of all of the cameras available, as well as other types, such as SLRs, large, and medium sized cameras with more zoom than ultra-compact and compact cameras.

I agree that DPReview has the most comprehensive reviews for digital cameras, I prefer to take the user review approach and go to Epinions.com and Amazon.com. While I appreciate the depth that DPReview goes into, I prefer the real world tests of ordinary users.
