I'm looking to replace my current all-around everyday & dive use P&S camera. I've always had oly's before but am open to suggestions. the only thing i dont like about my Oly's is the Video limitation to 20 or 30 seconds for the higher res video's so I would like something with a longer time. In addition to using it for diving pictures - (nothing super professional there, usually the subject is 1inch to 10feet away) a good image quality is of course nice. I would like it with( but not necessary) 10x optical, a real good night mode, 8mega pix is good enough, size to fit in my pants pocket but not tiny - 1.5" x 3"x 2" is apx my current size and fits the pocket fine. I would like one with a knob to switch between Pictures and video VS menus, And a price range to about $300, maybe $320 - for the camera only, I'll worry about the housing later. I may even just continue to use the old camera for diving and this for above water. So if there is a great suggestion that doesnt have a housing, I will still consider that.
so... any suggestions??
Thanks
( and PLEASE.. no comments about the 10x zoom turning on by mistake while in my pants pocket!!!
