Suggestions for a good digital camera (read conditions carefully)…?
It MUST:
- be compact (as opposed to digital slr -styled)
- be cheap! (under £200 – so ebay/ high street shops only)
- have a li-on battery – I can’t afford any more rechargeable batteries
- have 5x or more optical zoom and at least 6x digital zoom
- take very high resolution photos – at least 8 mega-pixels
- work well in extremely well in very low light situations – ie. crisp, hi-res photos in museum type conditions where you can’t use flash
- have macro mode on it that works from 5cm
- and most importantly, have an optical view finder coz i’ve got shaky hands 
So, they are my conditions.
I’ve already looked at the Panasonic DMC-FX500 which looked great, but it didn’t have a viewfinder 
and the Sony Cybershot DSC-W130, but reviews i’ve read said that it didn’t work well at all in low light conditions – it was way too noisy at even ISO 400!
I had a cybershot dsc-500 before, but that was also too noisy in low lighting (i’m referring to picture quality btw)
I would go for the Panasonic Lumix, the leica lenses are far superior to the Zeiss lenses on the Sony’s. I meself have an FX-50 and do quite a lot of similar type photography and the photos are always spectacular.
