Looking for a digicam

Samsung NV7 OPS

I am in the market for a digicam to go alongside my DSLR. This Samsung NV7 OPS looks beautiful, has good specs and hopefully overcomes my main sticking point with digicams; manual control.

Sadly I already know it doesn’t have a zoom ring, just the usual rocker switch on the back. But does it make changing aperture and shutter quick and easy?

Responsiveness is also another important bit. I was using Fiona’s Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX7 over the weekend and while I liked it I did miss a few shots due to shutter lag. I also pined for an optical viewfinder as during the day the LCD is not always easy to see.

Any other good digicams out there that are targeted at SLR owners?
