I am searching for the "perfect" digital pocket camera and this is my ideal for my needs. 1) pocketable and about the same size and configuration as Contax T-2 2) large sensor, full-frame (24x36) or at least APS-C or 4/3 3) wide sensitivity range 100-1600 4) single focal length lens equivalent to 35mm on 35mm but perhaps anything in the range of 28-40 equivalent. 5) very low distortion lens, I hate barrel and pincusion distortion in most of the P&S zooms. 6) fast lens speed of f/2 or faster. 7) simple controls with common ones readily available without going to the menu-- shutter speed, aperture, ISO 8) accurate eye-level finder, I dislike LCD only viewfinders, and I wear glasses. Anyone have any ideas? What is your "ideal" pocket digicam? Regards Mike
