I had the Panasonic Lumix TZ5 and it was a very very nice camera and always took great pics.
However, I switched to Canon! Nothin' can beat Canon!
I currently have this:
Canon - PowerShot 9.0-Megapixel Digital Camera - Black - SX110IS
And just LOVE it! It's pretty small, not as small as the PowerShot, but small and with 10x zoom. Love it. Here's a few pics I've taken with it.
