Hello all, i'm a bit of a noob when it comes to camera technology. I've searched the forums and done a bit of researching, but am still undecided on what to go with. I've currently been using a sony cybershot dsc-p9, but it feels like a brick in my pocket and is kind of hard to travel with.
Price is not an option
Here's what I need in a camera and what i'll be using it for:
Needs to be very small, light and compact, but feature rich.
I'll be using the camera, mostly for point and shoot for people photos and photos of landmarks, buildings, etc. i.e. for trips out of town, nights out, travel, etc. Photos taken in all light levels and something I can just pull out and shoot quickly and easily when events happen. The camera will mostly be taken on trips or to events where i'll be carrying it in a pocket. My current sony is, like i said, kind of like carrying a big square brick in my pocket and its slow to start and focus.
I really want something that takes great photos and is a good all around camera.
From what I understand Image stabilization and High ISO's (1600) are the things to look for.
Just by browsing the bestbuy website, these caught my eye:
Fuji Finepix z3
Nikon Coolpix s7c
Olympus stylus 720 sw
Casio Exilim
Canon sd600
Any recommendations based on the above info?
