point and shoot digital camera search
Leica C-Lux 1, in black: so pretty! also, $500. I am really frustrated with my camera's performance under low lighting that I've started thinking about my Christmas list. found this great comment thread on point and shoot digital cameras at 37signals, and I'm inclined to listen about the Fujifilm FinePix F30. I've been daydreaming about a digital SLR, but IRL I know I'd hate lugging it around.
the lecia is also sold under the panasonic lumix brand. exact same camera, less expensive and different body. aparently it has a full manual mode! super-unusual in a point-and-shoot.
