Compact Crank for 2008 Specialized Tarmac

I have 2008 Specialized Tarmac Expert (specs link). It came with a Shimano Ultegra, Hollowtech II 2-piece crankset (53-39) that I'd like to replace with a compact crank and not spend an arm and leg.

What are my options? I'd like to keep my bottom bracket too if possible.

Sounds like a good solution. Current Tiagra components are very good quality and value
