Larry,
there are several great cameras that allow you to swap lenses. Sony, Nikon, Olympus, Canon, Panasonic, etc.

Lots of detailed reviews on that site too. Also, any of the high end P&S cameras that shoot RAW format. Canon G15, etc.
Here's a panoramic (stitched together on camera and saved as jpg) off my Sony NEX-5. Images shot in RAW format and not swept by hand come out much better.
