    Default looking for a camera

    Right i need some expert help.

    I am going to holiday soon and will be wanting a new camera to take some pics. This is what i would like to do.

    Take good pictures of people on stage with flashing lights and low lights around.
    Not too bulky so its easy to carry round in her bag.
    High quality pictures so high pixels.
    Good action shots.
    Looking at around the £200 mark.

    Not sure what to suggest but do not be sucked in with the pixels thing....

    It all come down to optics. The HTC desire has a 5mp camera, but the pictures are shit..... My old IXUS from about 9 years ago was a 2mp camera and still takes better pictures.

    Anything by Panasonic in the Lumix range should do you well but not sure about the price.

    the HTC desire hd has 8mega pixel and its good, but you want a small camera without a phone ? I bough a small Sony for £210 a few years ago and it shoots 720p hd video. Loads on the market now around your price range
