So you are basically looking for the slickest James Bond Camera on the market. I don't blame you. The Kodak V610 is offically fully loaded. It has a great 10x optical zoom, 6MP, and nice fast lens, not the fastest you can get but nice for a camera this size and price range, all packed in to a great tight package. This is one of the most versitile cameras on the market right now. I would read the user reviews as well and see if it is your style. If it is not what you are looking for I think the first thing you would have to sacrific is the size to get what you want. Something like the Son y H5 would be a bigger size but with the features you want.

good luck 007

I'm sorry, I can't agree, especially on the Sony.

It's by no means a small camera and the lens isn't fast at all.

The Kodak isn't much better.

Don't get me wrong - both cameras are fine but they don't meet the 'fastest lens' and 'longest zoom' requirement.

Perhaps it would be easier to see which compact cameras have the fastest lens?

I think the Olympus 5050 (discontinued but still available online) with f1.8 lens is the fastest digital compact ever?

I managed to get a brand new unit last week and it's great.

The zoom is 3x, I think - 35 to 105.

The earlier Canon Powershots were also great.

The G5 has, I think a 4x zoom and starts at f\2 at 35mm. (It drops to f\3 at 140mm.)

Both cameras aren't small. Neither do they have ultra zooms.

If you want a super zoom, maybe get the Canon 3Si.

35mm - 420mm. Around f3.5, I think.

Hope this helps.
