Ok so I bought a Ricoh Caplio R5 which I'm returning as I hear bad things about taking low light pics and its rubbish for when you want to take a self-portrait of u and your friends (finger covers flash because both are on same side!)
Anyway here are my contenders:
Panasonic LX2
Fuji F30
Canon 850 IS
Canon S80
Now i keep hearing about the high noise on the LX2, but i'm no pro so wont need to take pics at over 200 ISO??? Also i want the camera for all types of pics - beach, bars/clubs, daytime, holidays etc...so an all-rounder....i did want manual controls but im not sure if this is now that important, i do want to learn and hone my skills but may get a DSLR in future...are manual controls on compacts worth it?
Size Matters....and ideally it should be compact - I know the LX2 lens protrudes and the S80 is big and heavyish....
Help! I wanna exchange my ricoh today! I am doing the right thing by returning my ricoh R5?
Someone who is really in the know help!
