Which Compact Digital Camera to get?

[Skippy]

I'm looking for a compact digital camera. Preferbly something slim and able to manually set ISO. It would be a bonus if camera also have a lens VR feature. My budget is below $500.

I checked out the Nikon S500 and S50. The S500 seems to generate a lot of noise when taking photo set at ISO 800 and above, higher than the S50.

Tried the Canon Powershot A570IS, it didn't have manual ISO setting.

So far I haven't try any of the Fuji cameras.

Just bought a Panasonic FX-30, after tested numerous cameras.. my advice is go down to the shop and tested printed the different cameras. See you what you get and like.

Bought the Fuji Finepix F40fd at South Asia Computer. Excellent bargain, better than the GSS deal from Fuji ($499). I bought mine at $479 with additional goodies (1 x additional battery, 1 x 2GB SD card) on top of that given be the GSS deal. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
