I'm looking for a compact point and shoot camera to replace my Canon SD200.
I'm looking for something I can put in my pocket easily, something with it's own rechargeable battery pack (don't want to mess with AA's), I don't need professional quality but I don't want a cheap one that does stupid things like add a red hue in low light or something like that. With my old SD200, the 3X optical zoom wasn't always quite enough, so something with 5X optical zoom would be nice. I'm not set on a 10 MP camera, 8 or even 6 would be fine, I think.
I'm looking for something under $200.
For the price, the FUJIFILM FinePix J150W looks like a decent camera for what I'm looking for. Anyone have any experience with it?
*EDIT* Link to the J150W on newegg.com
Would it be worth the extra $20 to get a Nikon? (Link to S550)
