Camera Shopping

I know that designers also love photography, so hopefully someone can help. I’m looking for a compact (pocket sized) point ‘n shoot that offers the most manual controls (shutter mode, aperture mode). I’m in a bit of a time crunch, so I’m reaching out to the most active community I know. Thanks for any ideas!

Re: Camera Shopping

I would recommend a Panasonic Lumix, because of the Leica-lens (it’s great). Or a Nikon Coolpix P5100.

I would take a look at Canon’s Powershot Axxx series. My girlfriend has an A710 which I think is quite nice.

Re: Camera Shopping

I like sony cyber-shots as they come with a carl zeiss lens.

As we are on the topic of cameras, Could someone suggest a mid-range video camera which can do both standard and HD footage?

The options seem to be limited but this is probably due to my ignorance on the matter.

Re: Camera Shopping

If I’m right you cannot really adjust aperture and shutter speed, but I want to mention the Canon IXUS.
