Hiya guy's...

Im in a bit of trouble at the moment! I have broken my camera...yes I know, very stupid. Clever me. BUT I am looking for a new one. Can anyone recommend me one so I can take good quality photo's without it busting my bank?! (Pst..brownie point's for anyone who can show me a picture of there camera's art in work!)
 
I think sony are good :) Before I got my Sony alpha 35 (which I would really recommend, and I will add a pic from both just now) I had a sony satio phone camera which I loved to pieces even though it was an awful phone :p

Satio:

(not the best picture, but they were cantering/bouncing here so shows how stable and clear the pics come out!)
 
I've got a fujifilm, can't remember which off hand, and i really rate it. I use it for the horse, dog, sheep and wildlife photos so it has to be good at catching things in motion, and it is!
 
Very much depends on your budget and what you want. You *can* get good photos with just a regular click and go, but it's easier with something like a digital SLR, but obviously there's a massive difference in price. It's also worth noting that knowing how to use your camera is as important as what you get :) These were all taken with the 500D (I only got it in July so am still very much learning how to use it so some are a bit dodge :) http://victoriaallin.imgur.com/ )

I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS11, and for £89 it is fantastic. It takes HD videos, pretty good quality pictures with a variety of different settings to suit the scene. It also has an intelligent auto option, which automatically adjusts the camera exactly to the ideal settings for the light etc. Although they brought out a new model of it last year, I'm sure there are still some retailers around, and I should think that the new model will be fantastic too!
Some photos I've taken (pretty low quality, had to get them off my fb cause I deleted them off my computer:p)
