Tips And Tricks: What is the best digital camera for my needs?

Hi,I did the following:

What is the best digital camera for my needs?My father owns a Sony Cyber-shot (6.0MP), and I love the thing. Its pictures always come out beautifully, and both the zoom and the focus are perfect.
However, it is a very large digital camera and much too bulky for my lifestyle - I need something that I can slip into my purse, not a camera that requires its own purse. I know that as the size of the camera decreases, the zoom must also decrease to a point. Are there any slimmer, sleeker digital cameras on the market that will offer me close to the same features as the Cyber-shot?

I have a Casio Exilim EX-S500 and I love it. It is a 5 megapixel camera that take beautiful pictures. It also has a voice recorder, and video recorder with sound. I have a 2GB memory card in mine that allows me to take over 600 pictures or over an hour of video footage. It is very small *about a half inch thick* and it's a great camera!

I have been looking for a long time for the perfect digital camera. Having the zoom and the portability. Your not going to find both in one camera. I suppose I would find out what is the largest camera I could carry comfortably with the biggest zoom and go for that one.

This is a new breed of camera. The ultra compact, with the big zoom lens. Of course, you do compromise a bit on image quality to fit such zoom capability in such a small package- but, for most regular folks, the minute differences in image quality really don't matter, and it's more about capturing the moment. Certainly, a big zoom range can help.

So- take a look at these models. all of which have 10x zoom range.

The Kodak V610. Very sleek

Canon Powershot TX-1 (not out yet) Kind of a pocket camcorder form factor. An interesting offering.

Panasonic TZ2 or TZ3. Great wide angle 28mm big zoom .with Optical Image stabilization. here's a review of the previous model TZ1
