Re: Digital Camera for nightclub?
 

If you can stretch to £169 you could go for a Canon A60 whch has a `Night
Scene` mode which I think would be great if you want to capture clear images
of people near the camera and have motion blurring in the background - and
there`s lots of manual adjusts as well to get the shots just right - of
course it all depends on how active you are as to practicalities of using a
camera like this ... Zol.

A little more than I was looking to pay, but may certainly be worth a
look for the extra features. I've also come across the Yakumo Mega
Image III, which seems fantastic for the price on paper, but does
anyone know if they're any good for actual use? I'm always a bit
dubious of a brand i've never heard of!

Thanks
