digital compact, with shutter and aperture priority?
I want a pocket sized camera to augment my dslr, that has some of the abilities, namely shutter and aperture priority. My Girlfriend has an older canon compact that has this, a A520 and I’ve looked on ebay at older cameras, namely the Sony DSC-V1 and DSC-V3, but I’d prefer a newer camera.
I really don’t want to spend loads, the guy in my local camera shop recommended a Sigma DP2, but I’d rather spend that on a lense for my main camera. I want a snapper with some creative headroom. My photography most takes place in some of the more chance-y areas of town, so theft is very likely, so again, cost is a consideration.
Any ideas? Recommendations?

Use this features search to find what you are looking for. If you select aperture and shutter priority and whatever else you want it will bring up the cameras that fit that criteria. Very useful and helpful.

This is a search I did selecting shutter and aperture priority, plus manual focus, aperture range f/2.8 or greater, compact, image stabilization and built-in flash. Just as an example.
the Canon Powershot A720 has aperture priority, shutter speed priority, and full manual. you can even manual focus if for some reason you want blurry pictures. its my sisters and i love using it.
it is a little chunky but you should be able to fit it in your pocket

don’t get it from amazon though, because its like 500 dollars from there and my sister got it for under 200 dollars brand new at some store, i think best buy.
