One path to take would be toward the Olympus FE-5010. This is considered a point-and-shoot still, however it has many features to give your photography an upgrade.

Once you have your subject matter in mind, you will want to make sure the picture is clear and concise. The many automatic features lend to ease of use and implementation. The Dual Image Stabilization will make blurry pictures a thing of the past. If your camera moves or shakes, this mechanism will correct the image for you so you do not receive any motion blur. No more fuzzy pictures with the FE-5010! Intelligent Auto has selections that include portrait, landscape, night, macro or sport. When you choose one of these auto settings, the camera will compensate and adjust for excellent imagery worthy of any gallery's walls. Have you ever taken pictures where the scenery is pretty but the faces are not? With Advanced Face Detection the FE-5010 will track up to sixteen faces and automatically focus on each one to insure top quality photography. This model even has Smile Shot that will shoot off three consecutive frames as it detects the smiles so you can choose from the best shot. There's even an in-camera tool that will correct any mistakes you may make while shooting such as red-eye and shadow detail.
