Decisions decisions

Some decisions can be made with a coin toss. This one ain't one of them :(

sony w290 @ 200USD? super compact (3.9 x 2.4 x 0.9"), super sleek, good enough resolution and ISO sensitivity, zoom but no zooming in while recording video :(
or,

panasonic TZ7/ZS3 @ 300USD? super zoom (12x), and zoom in while recording video :p
but not so compact (4.1 x 2.4 x 1.3" or 50% bigger than w290)
or,

both?

(P.S. I am getting the Canon 500D which also has HD video but not zoomable while recording - ARGH!)

Help me choose! (rationale behind your choice would greatly be appreciated, if not rewarded :D)

  1. Is that super zoom optical or digital? Optical is good. Digital just reduces resolution. I always disable digital zoom, I'd rather have a better picture.
