Hi,

Looking for a digital camera with following features:

Primary Criteria: Best Image Quality. Not megapixel count or x optical zoom.
Primary Use: Basic Indoor / Outdoor photography. I want point and shoot. I won't mess with settings.
Max Budget: 10 K (+ 2k Max)
Prefrred companies: Sony, Nikon, Cannon

Pls suggest.

Thanks.

IXUS 255 should fit the bill...

If you think you can spend little more, you can get SX260 for 13.5k

With the IXUS you will get more zoom than WX50. Fair comparison would be between IXUS 255 and WX150/WX200.

SX260 @ 13.5k is highly recommended, nothing beats it

As I have the similar query, I would like to add the battery life is major concern for me as I had a Kodak entry level camera with very high consumption of battery. And my cousin bought Nikon L610, with 4 original Nikon batteries and charger and I quite like it. And also SX260 is around 15k in flipkart where can i get it in 13.5k?
