Best Ultra Compact under £130?

Need some help deciding on a Digital Camera. Trying to find best one for my bucks (in these credit crunch times). Have looked at all the reviews to narrow it down to four cameras. Musts are Image stabiliser, over 8mp, good video recording, compact and easy to use. The ones I have selected have it all. Have used the canon Ixus 70, which took great picture is a good size but had problems with Red eye and blur.

My Shortlist is:

1 Sony DSC-W130 £89
Carl Zeiss Lens, 4x Zoom, manual control

2 Canon Ixus 80 IS £107
Its a Canon, best reviews, looks great

3 Ricoh Caplio R7 £116
7x Zoooooommm does any one own this?

4 Panasonic DMC-FS5
Leica lens, 4x zoom

(Maybe even the Nikon Coolpix S610)

I think I would be happy with any one of these and thats the problem and the reason I cant decide. Is it all about the zoom, or lens or something else?? Can anyone help please???

I personally would go with the Panasonic. My family has had four between us and they have all amazing quality and very durable. I got one at christmas but i have used my sisters and mums and they are so easy to use and i just love them. I get confused when i use other peoples. Anyway that is my personal preference though i do have to say that if your fingers are slightly bigger the buttons maybe a little tricky but you get use to them.

Edit: Though this is the case i agree with above it is personal choice and you may find it helpful to try them at a shop. Which one feels good to you? Its the same with mobiles.

problem with digital camera?? Please help ASAP?

my ricoh caplio r6 takes blurry out of focus pics. i didnt drop it, so what could be the problem? does anyone know? please help me!! what could be the problem and how much (aprox) would it cost for repair?

You have the camera on the wrong setting.
More than likely you have it set for taking extreme closeups..

Take it off the macro mode.. and you will be fine...
