I've used an Optio S4 (that my daughter reclaimed) and now an SV. Both are nicely compact and the SV was $200 new with a rebate. I recently bought an S4 on ebay for $100+ for a friend. It took a month of patience, but the camera is so cute (altoids tin) and convenient. Take a look at the Optio's and www.buydig.com Enjoyed the twins thing, by the way! Regards, Bob S.
