Eversince I bought my digital rebel, I've noticed I've been taking a lot less photos. It's such a big camera I can't bring it everywhere so I was thinking of getting something small. Not planning to take professional photos with this camera; just everyday photos.

I was considering the Canon S550 and overall it's a good camera, but there's the Fujifilm FX10 which has very little noise! I don't know which one to get. The S550 has more function, is smaller and looks nicer but the FX10 point & shoot has way less noise.

S550
7MP
• More functions, manual controls, etc
• Noise like any other compact camera
• Small, metal body & looks really nice
• Uses SD cards which I have a ton of
$600

FX10
• 6MP
• Very basic point & shoot
• Very little noise. It's like a Canon 350D; ISO 1600 is similar to ISO 400 on other cameras.
• Bigger, not as compact and looks cheap.
• Uses XD cards which adds another $100
$470 (or $350 CDN from the states)

EDIT: I forgot to add this camera:
Fuji FinePix 9.0MP Digital Camera (E900)
• 9MP
• manual controls, etc
• Little noise, ISO 800 is similiar to ISO 400
• Biggest of the 3, I still have to have a look at it to see how big it is
• Uses XD cards which adds another $100
$600
