Whilst I say, you choose the camera that you are comfortable with, some people dismiss the compact as just that compact. I use a compact fujifilm F500exr and apart from interchangable lenses it does most things a SLR or a Bridge will do and is 16 megapixels.
Having said that we all choose a camera for different reasons, my main reason for choosing mine was, it had to fit in my top pocket. Not a photographical reason, but a reason to take photos, as its always in my top pocket. I even have a pocket in my pyjamas, just for chance something crops up in the night.
