Hello,
Does anyone know how to translate 'point-and-click camera' in French? I have found the expression 'point-and-click' but not on very many sites and think that there might be a term more widely known for this type of cameras. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

En général c'est "point-and-shoot" en EN...

On n'a pas vraiment l'équivalent en FR, ces appareils photos sont désignés comme "compact"
