I'm wondering if there is consensus on a good family point-and-shoot
camera. In particular:
- fast focus, even in low light, for capturing kids
- capable of giving reasonable snapshots indoors (incandescent lighting)
- reasonably compact (<1/2 lbs and fits in a coat pocket or smallish
belt case)

Also, I'd prefer 28 mm wide angle, but I suspect that's hopeless. I
bought a Panasonic FX01. Nice camera in good light, but it did so poorly
indoors with low light (slow focus, very noisy images) that I returned
it. The Canon S80 has slow focus (but otherwise seems very nice).

So far I know of:
- Casio Z750 - fast, some complaints of poor image quality and easy
breakage but overall seems well liked
- Fuji F10/11 (or the upcoming F30). I can't get a handle on this one.
Some folks love it, others seem to hate it. The focus seems a bit slow
unless one turns on fast focus (which according to dpreview means it
can't focus closer than 1m? that could be a problem indoors).
- Sonys have fast focus (at least in decent light), but again a lot of
folks are down on them.
