small camera recommendations.

[starrylizard]

I'd like to buy a small camera. My smart phone is a bit hit and miss with photos and video and that is all I have at the moment.

Basically I'd like something small and reliable and easy to use. Not rocket science. Something I can stick in my pocket or handbag would be ideal. But ones I've had in the post have created fairly grainy photos and video.

Has anyone seen any good reviews or has there been a Choice survey of small cameras recently or do you have one (recently purchased) that is working well?

I won't lie, I want it before GISHWHES begins!

Any help appreciated.
Xx

And I should mention that if your camera doesn't take normal batteries but has its own removable battery block, I recommend you buy a second, extra one. There's nothing worse than being out and about, and you wish you could capture that perfect shot but you can't because your battery ran out five minutes ago.

True. Thanks!
