What is the best thin camera under £500?

Dear all,

Could you pls help me with this question?

In your opinion, what is the best thin camera under £500?

For the past few years, I only bought two cameras, all of which were under £100. Their biggest problem is that night pictures are very bad. And apparently the colours are not beautiful as many pictures I saw on my friends' facebook.

I have used Samsung and Nikon, so perhaps this time I want to move on to Sony, panasonic or Canon.

Your kind advice is greatly appreciated.

Personally i quite like the lumix range from panasonic.

The problem with "thin" is that it is probably the worst compromise that you can make with a camera.

It forces the maker to create a complex, multi-stage lens system, and makes it very difficult to use anything other than a small sensor. The latter means that low-light photos will always be poor (excessive noise).

If you want better quality photos, it probably makes more sense to carry a phone with built-in camera for spontaneous snaps, and a bigger, better camera when you know you are likely to want quality.
