Look at the S95/s100. Similar function and features but absolutely tiny.

My sis has the sony hx9v which has 16x zoom

Either of these three but S100 S95 HX9V in that order of my preference  :happy2:

Have a read of this.... If you haven't got one and you were thinking about one, the need for a point and shoot could now see you get one. IMO  :wink:

Keep the info coming guys  :happy2:

Like the sound of the HX9V and the Lumix too.  iPhones are cool, but don't offer a decent optical zoom. 

Other options still to be looked at.

Had never seen this website before, they rate my Canon 60D as 'poor image quality' which is interesting as I used it for this in Jerez last week



and its a decent enough photo for me. You cant go wrong with Lumix (Panasonic), Canon and Nikon (but keep a wide berth from Samsung) have a look at dpreview.com or Fred Miranda's website and you wont be far wrong. Personallly the Lumix is very, very good with Japanese reliability and a Leica lens (Rolls Royce of lenses), have taken 1000s of photos with my FZ 8 (now 4 years old) and has been a great servant as the Pandas in Madrid zoo will testify......
