I have a great pocket digital camera (Canon PowerShot S500) and I am not looking to get rid of it, but there are times when I find it lacking.
So I am looking for another camera, I'm thinking I may end up in the digital SLR cameras but I'm not really sure.
What I would really like is:
I'm not at all hung up on it being an SLR type/style. I see no real reason for interchangable lenses, it just seems that as the optical zoom goes up and to get quicker recovery times between shots that the cameras tend toward the SLR design.
My ideal camera would fit in a shirt pocket, and have the features I listed above.

What I would really like is:
- An OPTICAL zoom of at least 7x, but more is better.
- PictBridge printer connection (ideal but not a deal breaker)
- At least 1 frame per second capability for action shots
- Rechargable battery
- Easy to use
- "Secure Digital" card format (not a deal breaker if different)
