We have a nice digital sony camera that takes phenomenal pics, but it is a semi-professional model that has a huge lens and is somewhat inconvenient to carry around
So, my wife asked for a smaller one for when we go to the beach this summer, sporting event, out to the bars with friends etc.
I bought what I thought would be neat- a Kodal zx3 which is mainly a HD camcorder that also takes 5MP pictures. I didnt think about it before purchasing...it doesnt have a flash and as such takes crappy indoor pics. I thought the HD video feature was awesome and as such bought it...but the wife isnt thrilled.
I was thinking of the Nikon Coolpix 12MP....or maybe one of the Canon's.
I also like the idea of waterproof cameras as we are going on a 10 day beach vacation and it'd be nice not to have to worry about sand and water.
Her only request is that it be small enough for the pocket and take decent videos....and have a flash and some sort of optical zoom
Suggestions?
