I am looking for a digital camera.

I want something TINY(fits in a shirt front pocket) but of good QUALITY.

Any suggestions?

Tiny and quality generally don't go together in cameras.  If you have a way small camera you are going to have a small lens, which means means it will be slow, and not gather much light for your image.  If you have small, low quality glass that your image has to pass through on its way to the image sensor, you won't get the best results.  

There may be something out there that can preform well, but I shoot with DSLRs and don't know what all is out there.  But the best source for digital camera shopping is DP Review.

I'd recommend Canon, Nikon, or any other CAMERA company, not Sony, etc.

I've been looking on Dpreview alot lately. in the last 72 hours or so.

However. i saw a Casio 5mp camera at Radio shack that look cool. almost ended up buying it.

Mainly i am looking for something very slim to fit in my riding leathers that i can keep im my jacket and not the storage compartment on a Triumph 955i.

Some of the best pictures happen away from the bike and i'm tired of using that as an excuse.

something small. compact. and not noticable.

In other words. What is the ultimate carry camera?

If you plan on making 8x10s and 14x22s a 4 Mb camera is actually good enough for both. Of course tiny 4x6 prints come out great. I like the Canon SD400 to SD550s. I have a 550 and it's nice enough for snappies. The Casio Exlim line is really tiny.

Have a look around dpreview.com
