In the end, it all comes down to your price range, the type of pictures you're planning on taking and where you'll carry your camera. I use a mid-size camera, the Canon IS3 because I want the features (zoom, stabilizer, view finder, macro, etc.).

However, it is too big for in my pocket and I find the rear rack bag too inconvenient. So when I travelling and want pictures I have use the smallest Topeak handle bar bag. Enough padding, enough room, but not too big and heavy to be terribly detrimental for my riding. Others would feel differently and never use a handlebar bag.

Have fun shopping for one...cameras are almost as much fun to shop for as bikes! (well, I think so )
I agree fully! Price can play a big part. I got to test drive my camera before I bought it. I would check all your friends a family's camera's and ask ? Ease of shooting, set up ,computer set up, extra's etc... I have a cannon 400 it is very small but mighty. I have had it now for i think going on 4 years. I have taken it every place around this world with no problems. My battery is starting to not keep a charge as well but i think that is normal. I do wish it took better action shots. Next camera! Good luck.
