"On paper" the Optio 550 looks very interesting to me; unfortunately NO store
in my home city ("ninth-largest in the USA" notwithstanding) carries it so if I
do get one it'll have to be purchased sight unseen.
Looking for any useful comments about this camera. I like the idea of *small*
because I'm looking for it to be my carry-everywhere camera; and not so
intrigued by the Altoids-tin one because I like having manual controls
available (even when I don't use them much).
The only other camera on the market that's seriously tempting me at the moment
is the Olympus C5050, but I don't think it's quite as small, and it's not a
Pentax. Also, I tried one out in a local store (this, they can carry, but not
Pentax) and was underwhelmed by image quality.
