In the very first page of cameras section we have more than 5 threads discussed cameras of this budget. You will be getting suggested the same models again in this thread. Why don't you take your time and read those threads. You will get to know a lot and sooner from there than in this thread.
Aroraanant means sony HX9v not hx90 since canon sx220hs and 230hs r not availabe in market anymore ,we have to look for a alternative with manual settings
Ya thats true, HX9V is far better than H90.
So I suggest OP to pick HX9V as the price of HX20V will be quite high, and it doesn't fall in OP's budget.Even for HX9V you have to increase your budget but it is totally worth and if you can't increase your budget then I suggest you to Nikon S9100
H90 is a better choice 16x optical zoom , 10 mp. That's goof offer @ Rs 14k. My guess sony is rolling out more cameras with zoom as their main theme because the new advt talks about zoom and details. Lot to look forward to then.
