I went into the store tonight and they offered me a discount on the Canon Powershot G12 - the others mentioned are not available here. It does seem to work well in low light - this is an issue I'm always having problems with. For emergency outdoor family stuff I use my iphone 4 which turns out pretty good. Although the Canon Powershot G12 doesn't seem to be wizz-bang like the others, it impresses me with its small size and low light feature. See how I go, and thanks so much for this discussion - its been mighty helpful. Cheers, Aylwen
