I'd got for a Sub DSLR like the Nikon P90 or one of teh Fujie Finepix Zoom ranges.
They are bulkier than most point and shoot as they look more like a DSLR.
That is just my choice though as I like the better control I have over the camera than most point and shoots. Also they have better zoom ranges x10 or even x 24 with the P90.
