I'm interesting in purchasing a point & shoot digital camera that has a fast shutter time. I recently purchased the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W200 but wonder if there's something out there that is faster. I don't want to spend more than $400. I would be using it for photographing my kids, who don't sit still for very long so I need the camera to be quick. But I also want it to be small enough to fit in my purse.
Answer
From your description, it sounds that you're describing a shutter lag instead of shutter time. A shutter lag is the time that the camera need to process information between the time when you press the shutter button fully until the camera actually took the picture.
With that kind of price, I would think a bridge camera would be the best options you can get. It is not as big as a DSLR camera, but it's usually faster than most pocket camera.
A Canon Powershot S5 IS is a good bridge camera - it has a 8 megapixel sensor, ~$380 in price - depending on the merchant, and more importantly it only have ~0.1 second of shutter lag between focused composition and shooting (0.45 second if you press the shutter button right away before focusing, faster than the average pocket camera).
Dimension: 117 x 80 x 78 mm (4.6 x 3.2 x 3.1 in) - small enough for a purse. I've seen it myself and its only slightly larger than an average compact camera (not the ultra compact, of course)
Then since you've already have a Sony which is uses a memory stick, you might want to also take a look at a Cybershot DSC-H7. At a glance, it has similar specifications to the S5 IS, but more importantly for you, the H7 uses a memory stick instead of an SD card - something of a plus since your W200 uses a memory stick also. The H7 also have 8 megapixel sensor, similar dimension at 109.5 x 83.4 x 85.7 mm (4.6 x 3.3 x 3.7 in), and a slightly faster shutter lag time (though I doubt that it would be noticeable compared to the S5 IS). The H7 goes from around $330 up to $400 depending on the merchant.
Well I hope this would help. I know you won't be disappointed with both options - they are going to be a much much better improvement compared to your W200.
