Camera for Biking

[OakLeaf]

Actually the S5 is already a little dated. FWIW I was looking at one in the store the other day, and the sales guy was steering me away from it (and not toward more expensive cameras either, toward more up-to-date ones in the same price range). I've also read that it does rather poorly in low light situations, which was a big complaint I had about the Minolta 7Hi that just died on me.

But in any event, the S5 IS is rather large for bicycling.

On Saturday I had a bunch of friends over. There were various digital cameras there, and I made sure to take a peek at each. My friend's Panasonic Lumix TZ3 seemed too bulky for what I want. My other friend had one of the Olympus SW cameras, and while it was the right size, that particular line is a bit more than I'm looking to spend. The 3rd camera was a Canon of some sort, probably an Elph, but I didn't check the exact model so I don't know how much it costs. Some day I'll get this figured out......

Get thee to a store and look at those new Coolpix.
Tiny little things, Nikon glass and technology and less than $200.

Yeah, don't you see all those 'cool' Coolpix commercials with people having way too much fun with Ashton Kutcher's camera while he's supposedly not looking?
