Best ultra-compact?

Narrowed down my search to either Sony DSC-T200 / Casio Exilim EX-Z77.
Unless anyone knows better ones? I know high megapixel cameras are a bit of a marketing ploy so i dont really mind what MP the camera is 6 is probably more than enough? Which ultra compact is the best?

Re: Best ultra-compact?

Some additional zoom is now an interesting option with ultra compacts.
Although, basically point and shoot, they must be able to do ok in an evening type social environment and produce 6x4 prints.

Consider these, and if you could find some images to directly compare:

Sony T100 or T200
Casio V7 or V8
Fuji Z100fd

Re: Best ultra-compact?

Found somewhere that has images taken with all 3 models. They all look similar, and not brilliant to me, but what you have to expect for this size and convenience of camera.
If anyone can indicate major differences, then help would be appreciated. Similarly, if another ultra compact does much better, please advise.

Re: Best ultra-compact?
