Among point-and-shoot camera under $200, which are ready to shoot next shot quickly?

Thinking about the Canon PowerShot A540. Will I be frustrated by the refresh rate?

I'd steer clear of this one actually. Recycle times are not that great. It's a nice little camera, but if speed is your primary concern you may find this one frustrating, particularly with the flash on. Ranges from 4-7 seconds. Problem is with the digic chip- the newer A-series from Canon use a newer chip and thus have faster times. If you like the A-series you might want to consider the A630 or the A620 (both just over two hundred bucks).

Outside of Canon, the Panasonic FX01 deserves a look.

I got the Canon A630 (two of them in fact, one for mom) in March for $213 from PCrush.com. Now the list price is just over $190 and two of my friends are each getting one tomorrow. The shipping is 2 or 3 days via UPS and is under $20 (that's how much to ship to Hawaii, which is normally more that most other places in the US).

If you are a first-time Google checkout user, they knock $10 off your order.
