I'm on the look out for a new point and click camera and am after some suggestions. I've currently got an Olypmus Camedia C360 which is really good, although a little bit bulky and very battery intensive (despite me using 2500mAh rechargables!). I've also got a Fuji S5500 which I use for semi-detailed stuff (although is bulky as hell, battery intensive, and a pain to lug around!).
I'm looking for something smaller (much thinner as the C360 is 5cm thick and makes me look like a freak when tucked in my trouser pockets!). It should also have a higher resolution (5 or 6 MPs), with at least a 3 x Optical zoom. Ideally it will have a decent Macro function too.
I'd like to stick with AA batteries due to their easy availability overseas.
My budget is around the £150 mark.
If you have any suggestions, or use a particularly good digital camera, please post below. And no, I'm not interested in buying trousers with bigger pockets!!!
