If it is only a cheapie that you need. I bought one in Argos. It's a Panasonic H-CV100, has Zoom function and takes excellent video, has vibration reduction (very important for a coffee drinker). I have used in on a Lidl tripod €20 at a family Christening and it has excellent footage.
The only downside, the SD card has to be played back on a Panasonic TV. With the help of some website I managed to convert it to MP4 format for distribution. Which I have forgotten how to, but know it can be done.
