Good choice. The P7000 is a better camera, than the ones in your list. Hope it works good.

It's VERY unlikely that more than a mere handful of TPF regular posters have any clue whatsoever about P&S digitals in this price/capability/class ranger of $50-$60...but the online camera reviewers, people who specialize in comparing,testing, and evaluating cameras, probably would have some good advice. At one time, Dave Etchells, owner of Imaging Resource, used to offer his suggested model for multiple types of compact digital cameras, like the,"Best pocket camera", best "purse camera", best "soccer and T-ball camera" and so on.

I sold photo/video goods many years ago, and found that a real key aspect of camera buying revolves around how the user wants to carry the camera: pocket? jacket pocket? purse? camera bag? shoulder or neck strap? This is a big, big deal. Many of the best-performing cameras are large-ish, and require some type of strap or larger bag to carry them, but if the camera is not brought along, its features mean nothing.

dPreview periodically (annually) rates digital cams by their category/use.
