big zoom digital camera

hi guys...
Can anyone recommend a good digital camera with a big optical zoom for under £200, ideally around the £150 mark.
I have seen the Nikon L120, is that any good?

the Nikon L120 doesnt look to bad for the price

I have narrowed it down to a mega zoom camera/bridge camera, where I get either the Panasonic DMC-FZ45 or Fujifilm HS20 (which out of these two do you think is better).

Alternatively i get a super/travel zoom camera, where it is between the Canon PowerShot SX220 HS or the Panansonic Lumix DMC-TZ18/TZ-19 (which out of these two do you think is better)..

out the 2 bridge cams i`d go for the FZ45
i had one and its a good cam and still have my FZ48.
out of the super/travel zoom cameras i'd get the Canon PowerShot SX220 HS

Thanks looks like I will get the Powershot SX220.. but really would like the new SX240 HS but thats over the £200 budget.
However the samsung WB690 is available for £99.99.. so i will need to research that one.
