Best Compact Camera for Low-Light/Night shots?

jdunne08

Ive been looking for a good camera for the last few days and im having trouble. Id like a camera thats good for concerts that is 14 or 16MP, 15 or 20x Optical Zoom that is pretty good for night shots. Ive come across these:

Fujifilm Finepix F770 & F660EXR
Canon SX160 & SX260
Panasonic Lumix TZ30
Samsung ST200F
Sony WX100

The last 2 arent over 15x Optical Zoom but are priced good and over 16MP but im not sure if their good at night.

Which camera is the best for what i need? Or any other recomendations?
budget preferably €150

Compacts are generally not good in low light, especially those under €150. Most high end cameras (over €1k) aren't either unless you can use strobes. You're better off just getting the one you like the look and feel of most. Don't expect to get anything good out of a compact in gig conditions and you'll hopefully get a few surprises.

Also there are so many makes and models of cameras (and more every year). It would be impossible for people here to give you advice on a particular model, especially since most of the experienced people here are most likely using SLRs.

Also, there is a thread in a subforum for this:

Have a look at the Fujifilm X20. It's a little over your budget but one of the best low light compacts out there

Some mobiles are better! The Nokia Lumia 925 is excellent for
Sharp clear low light shots.....and you can phone home!!
