Hi All,

I am interested in a 'pocketable' digi-cam with reasonable quality
(for typical indoor / outdoor 'snapshots'), good battery life (ideally
replaceable if not std cells) with expandable memory and not a fortune
(so ~£100 etc) please?

Better pictures than yer typical camera-phone[1] and not as bulky as
what you might take out for real 'photography'?

It doesn't need to be truly rugged or waterproof as such (but it
would be nice if it still fits the remit above), the sorta thing you
might carry with you to record those before and after d-i-y / work
shots and not need to really mollycoddle (but not meaningfully abuse
ether of course).

What is in *your* pocket? ;-)

All the best ..

[1] I know some phones have pretty good cameras on them now days but
we don't have / want such a phone ta.



It would also be good to know what the latency is like on the various
cameras being suggested. I've used a couple of digital cameras which
produce superb pictures of static scenes but have too much delay from
pressing the "shutter release" to "taking the picture" for anything
that's moving (kids diving into pools, etc)
