    10x and good low light usually dont work together so well.

    All the widest aperture f1.8 or f2, (great for low light) compacts have 3-4 times zooms. these cameras -
    Olympus xz-1
    canon s95
    nikon p300
    lumix lx5

    The HX9v you linked is pretty ace, ive played with one loads. It can take 10 full resolution (16mp) shots in 1 second!

    AND the video on it is the best video quality Ive seen from a compact camera, it can do 1080p at 60fps! that's sweet for some half speed full res videos.

    HX9v has a new sensor which is good in low light too.

    LOL @ DOF effect. you of all people! youre a PS pro, you should be ashamed! (nah i get ya, its fun having little time saving gizmos in camera)

    So yeah the HX9v is great, but check flickr and get a feel for the pics, because ive found the sony HXxV range when it comes to colours and white balance can be a bit reddish and inaccurate, but you probably wouldn't notice unless you're a avid photographer.
