BEST Camera for Movie / Video Mode?

[atma-rising]

Hello All,

I am currently looking to buy a digital camera, and the movie mode for me is of high priority. Can anyone please recommend a camera (ina ultra-compact size) with a high quality movie mode? Image stabilisation and zoom during movies (either digital or optical zoom) are important to me.

I am currently looking at5 cameras, those being:

• Canon SD700 IS (also known as - IXUS 800 IS) [/*]
• Kodak V603 [/*]
• Kodak V550 [/*]
• Olympus 810 - Stylus / MJU [/*]
• Casio Z850[/*]

If anyone has had first hand experience with any of these, I would love to hear from you. Or if I have left out a camera that you believe deserves a look, please let me know.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your time, Atma-Rising.
