I'd go with the Fuji F70 EXR. The Velvia mode, and EXR modes are unmatched.

Surprised with the S90 leading by a good margin and dlux 4 are so few.

another consideration is flash. The LX3 can adjust exposure compensation and flash exposure compensation independently. Don't know whether the other digicams mentioned can, but it's a nice feature for balancing natural light with flash.
I think you have to combine the LX3 and DL4 stats to get a better idea.

I keep an eye open for a pocket-able that will make better files in low light than my Fuji F30. Haven't seen one yet and given megapixel mania, I don't expect to. I shoot the Fuji at ISO800, do a bit of clean-up in pp if necessary and am quite happy with the results.
I thought the 200EXR had potential but the results I've seen are disappointing -- though I'd like to have vibration reduction on my F30 . . .
YMMV

I use a Ricoh FF90D. Opens to 2.8, a 35 mm lens I think. Got some super shots with it

I have the f30 and love it
I have the f30 and love it
Also the f31fd, f40, etc.
Agree that most of the successors to the f30 (f31fd was very close) got worse at 1600/3200. F70EXR is back on track, but you do get only 5 megapixel images, which is fine for me and 8x10s, 11x14s.
Haven't tried the fxr200.

I concur with previous poster- the S90 produces good quality photos, and is small and light enough that i can keep it in the front shirt pocket. Used it this way on a recent trip, with a long lanyard on it. Good compromise of size and image quality. Also, decent manual controls available.

Btw, I also havea Fuji F31 which I agree with it's lowloght capabilities. I put here the newer models only.

I think most digital P&S cameras have shutter lag, because the camera is asked to do too much.
That's always been my wife's main complaint, and I find them to be a pain for the same reason, especially when photographing children and dogs -- both of whom move around much too quickly for a digital P&S to use to catch the fleeting expression or pose.
