Hello to everybody!

I'm a beginner with photo-shooting, and looking for a new compact, point and shoot digital camera to replace my Panasonic DMC-FX10 cos it fell into water on my last trip.

I'm looking on shooting armature outdoor pictures and I've done some research on what would be fit for my choice.

I have a budget of $300 and below is the list of cameras that i'm considering on buying. I wanted to ask your suggestions and experience you've had with them.

  1. Fujifilm FinePix F200EXR
  2. Panasonic DMC-FX580
  3. Olympus Stylus 9000
  4. Panasonic DMC-ZS3
  5. Nikon Coolpix S70
  6. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290


I will greatly appreciate your comments and suggestions on one of the above.

Thanks,
Derek
