Flower Petal Len

Camera Question?
I'm an amateur photographer and I am looking for a camera that does the following:
1) Takes good zoom photos (Like pictures of flowers, etc, with crisp detail.)
2) Has good battery life
3) Is pretty portable
4) Takes good quality shots in both daytime and nighttime.
So far I narrowed it down to:
1) Panasonic Lumix TZ3S
2) Canon Powershot SX100IS
3) Sony Cybershot H10
I'm leaning towards the Canon one because it's the cheapest and I heard good things about it. My question is, am I looking for the right things? I take a lot of pictures of the insides of flowers (petals, etc) so I need them to come out crisp and nice. So I thought that getting a camera with a high zoom would be good. But is zoom the thing to look for? Or do I need a special lens to get all the flower details? Please help!!
Canon is an excellent choice in cameras, but I personally think you are looking in the wrong type of camera for the type of the pictures you want to take.
The detailed close-up pictures you want to take actually require using one of the DSLR type cameras (interchangeable lens through the lens of viewing type cameras) for top quality images.
Any of the Canon digital SLR cameras will work perfectly for what you want to do. You will also want to add a macro lens to your camera. Canon makes several excellent macro lenses. The 100 mm macro is my favorite but Canon does offer several other good ones.
If you do buy one of the Canon DSLR bodies, for the kind of pictures you want to take, the body you select it will depend mostly on how you are using your pictures. The higher the megapixels, the bigger enlargements you can make from your pictures, so if you are thinking of making a large prints, a high megapixel resolution body is what you are looking for. All of the Canon DSLR bodies however, will work just fine. A good macro lens is more important for the kind of pictures you like to take, then the actual camera body you buy.
Hope this helps you in making your decision.
