Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
I have an Olympus VG-160 that I like. Has some disadvantages but for the price you can't really beat it.
I have the Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ7. 10x Zoom (with wide angle), FUll HD video for around £100. Very pleased with it.

You can't beat Canon for simple point and shoot cameras. I have an Ixus and it is tiny and well specified. What is most important to me though is that the colours are brilliant and it is fairly simple to muddle through the controls. My Mrs has never taken it off Auto and finds it easy to use to.
Certainly is, I did a lot of research before I bought mine, it's cheap because they released a new model with wifi connectivity,
I would also sing the praises of the panosonic luminx range. A friend bought a high end one for me/us as a wedding present,unfortunatley it died from serious missus later my wife bought a dslr from ge but she wasn't happy with it, really good camera if you eant aload of manual controls and are taking very static images but there is quite abit of time lag on the shutter so no good for spontaneous children/pet photos. However after a bonus from work this summer (woohoo) I bought a luminix camera to swap with my wif's ge one, a lower range one (I forget which model) with 16megapixel and 10 optical zoom, ideal for automatic camera it has a very quick shutter response so good for quick photos. I think I spent under 150 but also bought a case and memory card

There are not that many bad cameras about nowadays.
Panasonic Olympus Sony Fuji and Canon all make good compacts Nikon don't really.
