Default Getting a new camera

Hi guys.
I hope this is the right place for this new thread.
I do apologize to the mods , but I think it will be beneficial to everybody at the forum if I get a good camera
What do you guys think is a good camera for shooting skyscrapers and skylines?
Please no SLR's since I don't think I will be carrying that around as much.
Since I want to make some night shots I thought fuji f series could be the thing for me.
As far as I know f30/31 are nowhere to be found so I am thinking f-40?
I am open to other suggestions too if you can bring proof (actual pics)

good thread I also want to buy a new one and I dont know what to choose, from what I see canon has some good cameras (features for price). I also dont want to mess with SLR and I want at least 8 mpx and a 5-6 zoom.
I saw at a friend canon A720is and it had good results they were pretty happy with it, only it looked a little plastici

Default Cameras

I have had a very good experience with the Sony Cyber-shot camera. They are small and the pictures come out very nice. They have models that go up to 14 X zoom 10 pixel. The pictures I have posted were with a 7 pixel 3 X zoom.

The camera will fit in a shirt pocket and very easy to handle.

Yeah I also have a friend that thinks very highly of Sony cameras.
The thing that is turning me off is the need to use their memory stick cards.
I got alot of sd cards from my previous camera and it would be a shame to get rid of them.
What about low light performance?
Did you try taking any night shots with them?
