Default Cutting plasterboard over timber studs

I need to replace a damaged section of plasterboard on a stud wall and am hoping to cause minimum damage.

What's the easiest way to cut a rectangular section of plasterboard out? I want the cuts to centre on the studs so a saw wouldn't do in this case. I guess a Stanley knife with a good blade might be enough, but would this be rather hard work?

Suggestions welcome


In order of preference: Stanley knife, oscillating saw, floorboard handsaw.
