So I am looking for a small camera that I can fit in my pocket and bring to parties. I want to be able to dance with it in my pocket. I need something small and compact.
The smallest camera I can find is the Casio Exilim EX-S100. Nice looking camera, but the picture quality isn't all that great. Thats to be expected with a camera the size of a credit card. I also noticed that there was a sony DSC-T33 but it doesn't have a lens cover and its expensive. I am looking for something under 300 dollars.
Here are some other bigger models I was looking at:
Pentax Optio S5i
Canon Powershot SD200
Panasonic DMC-FX7
Fujifilm FinePix F450

Any insight? If I decide I want better pictures, I will probably go with the Pentax.

I would highly recommend the canon sd 10, or another model from the sd series.

The nikon looks nice, but its too expensive. I think I am going to go with the Pentax Optio S5i.

Holy crap this thing is small. It is smaller than my MA license. Wow.
oh yeah, B and H photo and Video is great. I bought the camera from them tuesday night at 10 something, They shipped it the next morning and it came in one day even though I selected UPS ground.

The New York times has a roundup of tiny cameras right now. Read it before it disappears into the paid archives.

The Pentax S5i is a great little camera, it's about to be replaced (within 2 weeks) with the S5z, which adds a larger lcd, better image quality (less dark corners), and adds an af-assist lamp.
The Panasonic FX7 is also awesome, but has really really poor battery life. There's a model to rectify that issue, the FX8, but sadly it's not coming to the US!
