Hey guys, I currently own a Panasonic FZ20 with lots of accessories to add on: filters, convertors, flash, battery pack, to name the basics. But I don't want to bring around all these wherever I go. Hence I'm looking for a compact or an ultracompact WITH manual functions. Now, I know there aren't many in the market yet but I've shortlisted a few:
1. Casio P700 (FULL of features + manual)
2. Panasonic LX1 (noise issue - )
3. Fuji F10/11 (high ISO, low noise)
Here're others that are in the lower regions of my list:
4. Canon A95
5. Panasonic LZ2 (6x optical yet compact enough, but no manual)
6. Sony W7 (don't like proprietry MS)
I'm sure there are others but I read reviews until my eyes gonna :bigeyes: liao. Does anyone have any other suggestions? My budget is about $600 - $700, excluding additional batteries & memory. I'm quite biased towards the Casio P700. It's full of features & it's an ultracompact, not just a compact. Of course, I wouldn't mind a compact if features are good. Purpose is general... I'd say a 50-50 of indoor as well as outdoor.
*sigh* :sweat: I know I'm being difficult... Please help? :lovegrin:
