>>4369987here are some compacts i've used
>nikon a - great form factor for apsc, good iq, decent ergos, dreadful shutter lag precludes quick street/event shooting>canon s95 - feels flimsy, truly pocketable, kinda slow operation but cheap enough you can treat it as almost disposable. couldn't really tell it was ccd vs cmos but you know from rpt that it can certainly deliver on iq>nikon p330 - weak, squeaky build, pictures looked pretty decent. didn't test thoroughly because i got a broken copy. same form factor as s95>fuji xq1 - solid build, snappy operation, solid jpegs, suffers the fuji tax. also same sizes as s95>pentax optio s4 - early gen point and shoot with all of the drawbacks. widest on the zoom is 35mm equivalent, charmingly coarse iq, ovf is microscopic but nice to have in some situations. absolutely tiny body you can take anywhere, low capacity battery, terrible uii certainly recommend a small simple digital camera to complement film gear. if nothing else, it makes a fine light meter
