Hi, yes buy one from Argos, I did!
very recently bought Vivicam 8300s made by Vivitar, 8.1 million pixels, 2.5in Lcd screen, rechargeable battery (with charger). comes with a 64MB memory card. I paid a bit more and got the 1GB card. Connects via USB (lead provided) and the camera the appears as a removeable drive you can store ANY info on! The camera also does video with audio - about 30 mins in ecconomy mode, brilliant and fits your price range.
I am the resident roadie, dogs body, payerer of bills and photographer for my sons band and I have found the following camera pretty darn good ......... What's more it comes right in on your budget :-) (Looks the biz too)

As if you would take any advice from somebody who lives in Rugeley??? Or one who cant spell Jessops. You need a fast lens in low light conditions (maybe f.1.4 or 2.8) and at least something with a 200mm focal length assuming your not going to be stood ont he stage with the other fools. Your looking at a grand plus for any sort of decent results. Your wasting your money on this cracker rubbish. If your that interested why dont you rent a pro outfit for when you need it, like a 1DS MkII or Nikon D2X.
Claiming not being able to spell Jessops because you dont have one in your **** hole town is just plain ignorance. Then going on to give advice on Cameras is just a **** take! Go to Argos??? Genius mate! Suppose thats the answer for everything where you live. At least I can vaguely claim to do a photography related job for a living (and no, I don't work for "jessups")
ahh thats nice, you got a camera for christmas did you, ahh bless!
couldnt agree more with you about our ****hole of a town, full of bagheads and dole dossers!
my job does not involve a camera and i could not give 2 flying ****** how you spell jessups?
misty asked for advice of the good people of the answer bank and you gave a childish and unhelpfull answer!
argos is a pretty good shop i suppose,not my answer to everything!
dont get me wrong, i look forward to your answers on this thread because during the day i have to speak to my many employees with the respect they deserve and i get a bit frustrated with it, then you came along with a bit of aggresion therapy for me, thanks bluejonjo, i look forward to your next answer!!!
No, I'm a pro and I buy my cameras for my business. But that's a different subject.
I tire of Digital Amatures picking up a inferior equipment, to try and do a pros job and than make an arse job of it.
It makes the industry I work in harder to make a living and gives people who have spent time and money learning the profession from college and beyond a bad name. My answer was intended in this vein.
I still think Mitsy would be better off renting a pro kit every time she needed it, rather than wasting her money on some tat, as the question infers regular high end work.
Oh and don't you mean customers, not employees? Surely a manager wouldn't use such **** poor punctuation and grammar?

no, i mean employees, im in a business that does not need a spelling test, i have a secretary who does that!!
i understand how you feel about people coming into a proffesional trade with an amatueristic approach, however i feel misty does not intend to make money out of her photography. perhaps i am wrong?
i know better than anybody else about people who wake up in the morning with the idea of starting a small business with no ideas of the job/concept involved, they cause damage whilst they trade and leave us proffesionals to pick up the pieces after they return to the factory they came from!!!!
Bloody hell, i only asked what a good camera was for around that price, don't want to do anything professional with it!!!!! is it against the law to own a camera now unless its really expensive and you know how to use it like David Bailey?? Thanks for all the feedback that you have all left, i'll have to shop around
