Hi Shel,
I use an Olympus XA-2. It's very small, has a sliding cover for the 35mm
f3.5 Zuiko, built-in lens which means it really does fit in a pocket, has
a fully de-mountable flash, 3-setting focus, ISO dial-in from 25-800,
self-timer, very quiet electronic shutter. Where I go, it goes.
How big is your pocket?

Hi Shel,
Paul covered the original compacts very thoroughly. If you are looking for
something of more recent vintage you might want to check out some of these
(all feature exp. compensation, many have adj. diopters, spot metering, and
metal bodies):

Dan,
Thanks for brining the lineup up-to-date. I was unaware that you could get
spot metering on a contemporary compact.
With most the models that you've named have fine lenses and other strong
points, their extensive automation makes them a different breed from the
flexible manual-focus models

The highly regarded 28mm, f/2.8 Ricoh GR1, like the 28/3.5 Olympus XA-4 of

Autofocus is a no-no. Zoom lenses are a no-no. Not being able to
set my own exposure is a no-no. While a meter might be nice, I'd
have to be able to control it completely, including turning it off
and still being able to set exposure, otherwise a meter will only
get in the way. Thanks for
