Been researching this for a while... I want a compact camera that I can take when I go to concerts or am running or going to a party where I don't want to lug around an SLR. I want the best camera I can get for night shooting of concerts, evening lit fixtures, neon lights, etc... to capture the mood rather than brighten it with a flash. And also offers great pictures for daytime shooting. What compact camera offers the least amount of noise for shooting at night? I have looked into the Fuji f30 (they are hard to come by), the Panasonic Lumix DMC LX3 (one site http://www.squidoo.com/best_compact_camera
claims it to be the best going, but I also read elsewhere that it takes a while to focus). I have also looked into Canon Powershot 790 because of its f2.8, the Leica D-Lux, etc... I've read about them all, but would really like to know what users of the cameras think. If anyone has any suggestions or thoughts... least amount of blur, iso settings, image stabilization, excellent pic quality, has f2.8 etc... please let me know. I really want to get one already.
