My Canon Ixus 400 is playing up. It keeps reporting "Memory Card Error". Now, it's entirely possible that it is a memory card problem (I'm using Jessop's own-brand cards), but they were fine when I got them.

Either way, I'm looking for a new camera. I'd like something with comparable features to the 400, but I want something smaller, so that I'm more likely to actually use the thing (I took a grand total of 12 photos on a long-weekend ski trip).

I had a quick look at DPReview, but I'm a little behind the curve in terms the current market.

One thing I'd quite like to resolve -- but I don't know if it's possible in a compact camera -- is the delay between pressing the button and the picture being token.

So, what's hot?
