Which one of these should I get?

Casio Exilim Z500
Casio Exilim S600
Samsung i5

IMHO none of them. A Canon is the only thing I will touch these days. Keep in mind that MP rating isn't everything. You can get VERY different results among cameras with similar MP ratings. Canons tend to be a bit spendy but the powershot series is pretty affordable and you will be hardpressed to find better picture quality for the price. I know it is a little bit more expensive than the others and maybe a little bit larger but you get a solid 7MP+ camera versus 5MP. http://www.epinions.com/pr-Canon_PowerShot_S70_Digital_Camera

Thanks for your opinion m8 but what I want is a slim, point and shoot camera with reasonable spec (which I think all the above have) that also take video/movie clips with zoom (again which I think all the above have). There aren't many cameras that have zoom while recording due to the zoom noise!

I wouldn't touch a Casio with a Barge pole, or a Samsung....
Canon, Fuji or Sony is your best bet...Don't waste your money on a Digi that says Digital Zoom only or if the Digital Zoom is longer than the normal zoom.
But there again, it's your Money!!
