I prefer shots 001 & 006, good colour and saturation, lots of detail, highlights and lowlights are good. 017 is overexposed, you've lost the sky and everything else is bleached out. Compare the yellow table cloth in 006 & 017, there is detail in 006 which is gone in 017.
BTW, were you inside shooting out through a window?
Here is the EXIF for those three:
001
Exposure Time: 1/1000
F Number: 2.80
Exposure Program: manual control
Bias: 0/10
Metering Mode: multi-segment
Light Source: 16
Flash:
Focal Length: 5.80
Shutter Speed: 1/1000.00
Orientation: upper left
Aperture: 2.97
006
Exposure Time: 1/1500
F Number: 2.80
Exposure Program: manual control
Bias: 0/10
Metering Mode: multi-segment
Light Source: 16
Flash:
Focal Length: 5.80
Shutter Speed: 1/1000.00
Orientation: upper left
Aperture: 2.97
017
Exposure Time: 1/180
F Number: 2.80
Exposure Program: program normal
Bias: 10/10
Metering Mode: multi-segment
Light Source: 16

It can be quite subtle, I don't think you are going to see it on a LCD.
There is a relationship between speed and f-stop:
1/1000 at f2 = 1/500 at f4 = 1/250 at f8
Under normal circumstances you'll go for the highest f-stop number for best depth of field, but if you're photographing moving cars for instance you'll want the fastest speed to stop the motion.
It's all about compromises, therein lie the joys of photography.

The 3x optical zoom is fine, it's a real glass lens magnifying the image with no loss of quality. Once you reach the end of the 3x zoom the digital zoom takes over. The 5x digital zoom throws away detail and making what's left bigger to fit the screen, nasty.
