Does anyone have any?

I'm after something very small and compact that'll easily fit in a trouser pocket or similar. I'm getting fed up of taking crappy shots at gigs or out and about with my phone camera :)

Currently have a Canon but it's too bulky.

Ta :)

We've had the Canon IXUS 70 for a few months now, and i'm quite pleased with it so far.

It's smaller than most mobiles... although once you add a case, etc, it does soon get bulkier...

Have a look at dpreview.com.
Perhaps looks at threads in the photography group too :thumbsup:

Probedb,

Morgan do very good deals on end of line equipment. Got a Fuji still going after 4 years and an Olympus FE130 very small and compact, for camera's with an X3 optical zomm and x4 digital zoom.

Would recommend this company on price and value. Store in Birmingham and London.

I hope this helps
