    I have decided to get a P&S for me, have owned Nikon Coolpix S7 before. Have narrowed down on the following options:

    1. Sony DSC HX9V
    2. Canon powershot sx260 hs
    3. Panasonic Lumix DMC - TZ25
    4. Nikon coolpix 9100

    Any suggestions to decide on one of the above?
    I own a TZ25.. go for it if you are on a budget. Otherwise the canon powershot, i felt the sony was slow but has some great features and the Nikon has limited manual controls.

    My preference:
    Canon
    Sony
    Panasonic
    Nikon

    But pl note that they all produce pictures of similar quality so you cant go wrong with any and they will suck at night photography and wildlife. There are best for family, travel and landscape at best.

    You can see pix taken with my TZ25 here http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/tourer/2...kms-ke-tn.html

    Read online reviews, it should help you narrow it down.

    A clearance sale for the soon to come D5200 perhaps (?)...


    there is no news of D5200.. Nikon refreshes its cameras typically every 2yrs so the D5100 still has a yr left. the D7000 is 2yrs old now so logically they it will be updated first..

    I dont know what is missing in my post that is not communicating what I actually mean. Okay let me put it this way, within the limits of a car like Nano there isnt much of a difference between it and a C-class in ferrying a person from point A to B ! Got it? Yes a C-class is faster, sexier, smoother, smarter etc etc but coming to the basic functionality of people carrying which is within the capabilities of a Nano, there isnt much difference !!!
    The Nano-Merc comparo somehow doesn't fit here. I would like to say only one thing. Because the P&S has limits, it can't match a DSLR. There is no scope for matching the quality 'within limits'.

    Any suggestions on editing pictures? It seems only we three are active in this thread lol could find much articles on editing. I use picasa and try using "i'm feeling lucky" but i dont always like the results..
    I have been using FastStone Imageviewer for the last 3 years, particularly extensively in the last year. Its free and fulfills all your basic editing, including batch processing. I simply love it.

    Yet to take anything in manual control though.
    how did you overcome the issue? I'm into manual controls but yet to get the hang of adjusting the aperture. Read tons of articles online but still not getting a hang of it. And editing pictures. Do you guys have any suggestions for editing?

    I was in the same soup. If your budget allows go for a DSLR. Cause a manual P&S will never match up to the functionality or the quality available in a DSLR.

    But if you are tight on budget or feel you might lose in interest or want to first learn the basics.. then go for a advance P&S.
