CANON =)

slim, good pictures, great video... all fingers point to sony.
canon's also great, but sony wins out in the slim/video categories plus style to boot =]

Sony's definitely slim and has a big lcd screen, but to me, its about the size of a wallet. I had a Canon powershot sd10, and it was great. Now looking for a new camera as well.

It would all depend on the price range, the store your going to..and exactly what features. And what use you might be using your camera for.

To me..the higher the MP(mega pixels) isn't always better
Megapixels Information
^ Here, read that site and decide exactly what usage you will be using your camera for.

anything around 5-7mp should be enough for you. canon is always good, cant go wrong with that. check out other brands too though. as for storing lots of pics and long vids, you'll have to get a good memory card.

The DSC-M2 is pretty cool (it looks more like a cell phone than a digital camera/camcorder) but it's kind of hard to come across unless you look for it on-line... Basically any camera from Sony has okay photo and good video... So get a Sony camera and 1gb~2gb memory stick pro duo...

sony's t series are slim...canon's sd series has good pic quality...get either, but canon sd630 has a 3 inch screen [that's huge]...and for the video quality, look if it can capture the videos at 60 fps [frames per second] and the memory solely depends on the memory card [1 gb is suffice]

[ddonq]

check out the nikon coolpix s6

My sister has a Canon sd600, I suppose it's older than the 630 but it works pretty well, big lcd screen too.

THANK EVERYONE!!!!!!

ok since everyone is suggesting sony. im going to look at some.. ^^ thanks yall..

Canon SD1000

It's seriously smaller than a deck of cards and so cute (3.4" tall, 2.1" wide, and 0.8" thick)! I don't know about image quality since I saw it last week at Best Buys. I think it's around $300. But like everyone says, if you want a slim design with a huge screen, sony is your best bet, but I don't think their image quality is that great (I owned a sony p-10 for four years. Design was gorgeous, but pictures were ok. Good if you know how to customize settings)

NO!! DON'T GET SONY!!!

Go with Canon or Nikon. Sony products are overpriced due to the brand, and the quality aren't even as good as Nikon or Canon.

[Jiraiya]

Canons are pretty nice. Go with a camera that has high ISO, they will be able to take good pics even in low light..
I have a Nikon and it is not that good, low ISO, blurry pictures in low light, even though it is a 6 MP camera. For slim and good pics, go with Canon ELPH, Casio Exilim, Sony has nice ones too.

Check out the following site for camera quality comparisons.

Oh and storing lots of pictures depends on your memory card size. Typically Sony uses memory sticks which are more expensive, I think Fuji uses xD which is less, the rest use CompactFlash (CF), or Secure Digital (SD), which are least expensive.
