compact digital camera

I am looking for a compact digital camera. I have looked at the Nikon Coolpix 5200 and also Canon Digital Elph cameras in particular. I will use it for fishing and hunting pic but it must have a document or copy mode because I want to use it to copy deeds etc at courthouses....I saw a guy doing this and it had never occurred to me. It would be great for my work...and justifiable as a business expense. I read the prior post but again, I really want a small camera. Has anyone bought one of these recently? Thanks.
