I would like a camera with most of these features

- Rechargeable Battery
- 3x Opitical Zoom
- Ultra Compact
- At least a 2.0 in. LCD (optional)
- Good Outdoor Photo Quality
- Cool Design (optional)
- Dock (optional)
- 3 Megapixels (minimum)
- Costing Less Than $350

I am mainly going to use this camera for travel so I need a good outdoor type of camera but still compact. Please list all of your recommendations here. thanks!

The ones in bold are required!

Consider the Canon SD200 or SD300. Be sure to add in the cost of a real memory card as no camera comes with one that is useful.

No dock (but I'm not sure why you'd want one), design is IMO very nice, Li-Ion battery (but I'd actually prefer AAs, something you're not going to find in an ultracompact anyways). You may notice some slightly fuzzy corners in shots, but I haven't seen it in my real world photos yet.

I've used the Nikon 3200 and 5200 before, but not extensively. They seemed nice as well. There are also Sonys and Casios in this class.
