    Point & Shoot Camera recommendations

    Hi!

    As the title suggests I'm looking for some point and shoot camera recommendations.

    At the moment I have a Nikon D5000 - but we're going on holiday soon and I don't want to be lugging such a large bag around with me (the kids and nappy bag will be enough ).

    So I'm after bang-for-buck options. Happy to spend up to $250 and hoping for something that actually takes the photo pretty quickly - no time lag (as I've experienced with my old Olympus). I don't mind about the GPS function as I've heard its a battery sucker?

    Thank you!!

    I have had a few Canon Ixus p & s and loved them! I grab it even now with my DSLR around for those quick shots and its really small and compact.

    We have a canon ixus too and would definitely get one again when we upgrade it.
