Hello,

I'm looking for a compact digital camera...I'll mainly use it to take pictures of my young children but will occasionally take it on sightseeing trips etc
Therefore good shutter speed is essential... as well as good quality pictures and portable.
I'd prefer to spend under £300 if possible.
At the moment, I've been looking at two Canon models - IXUS 100 IS and 980 IS
If anyone has any feedback, alternatives or advice I would be really grateful.
I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to this, so please feel free to suggest different brands etc
The cheapest prices I can find for these two models are:

IXUS 100 IS = £187.80 at Amazon.co.uk
IXUS 980 IS = £227.98 at Camarabox

*Edit*

Right I'm now also looking at
Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 = £269.90 at Amazon
Fujifilm Finepix F200 EXR = £192.98 at Camerabox

I quite like the look of the Fujifilm...

Any comments?
Many Thanks

Chris
