Interesting feature: Panasonic DMC-LX5 vs Canon S95 vs Canon IXUS 300 HS / SD4000 IS High ISO Noise

As much praise as the S90 gets (and deserves) the lack of anything for my thumb to hold on to it really annoyed me. It's basically a little plastic brick that is waiting to fall through my sweaty fingers (I am aware there are third party solutions).

\/ Didn't know this. Thanks for pointing it out!

After doing a little research today I think I'm going to buy an Panasonic Lumix ZS10 camera. It has a good optical zoom, is wide angle, and has an ISO equivalent of up to 6400. Is there any reason I should consider something else over this camera? Again, most of my picture taking is at concerts, day and night, indoor and outdoor.

This is from a while back, but in case you haven't made your purchase yet let me just say that I am a big fan of the Panasonic series. The ZS10 however made the jump from CCD to CMOS sensor which brought worse image quality with it. I'd therefore recommend the predecessor ZS7 which also has the advantage of being considerably cheaper. Just my 2 cents.

EDIT: Do all SLR's have detachable lenses? That's usually the wording a venue will use to limit cameras: "all cameras with detachable lenses are prohibited." Which is the whole reason I'm looking at a Point and Shoot instead of an SLR.

I can't think of one that hasn't. But even if you find one they'll probably won't allow it, as it "looks" like a DSLR anyway, while "pocket-cameras" are cool.

\/ Excellent.
