So basically I would like a decent camera for when I go to the British Grand Prix in July. I'd like to know early so I can save up some money for a good quality camera that can capture some good shots of the cars (they'll be going slow around the corner I'm sat at so it doesn't need to be super super awesome camera!!!)

Any ideas?? No particular budget as of yet.

Panasonic Lumix TZ6 or TZ7 if your budget can stretch.

Leica lens, 12x optical zoom, 10mp.

A great all rounder.

I got the :Panasonic Lumix TZ7 Digital Camera - Black (10.1MP, 12x Optical Zoom) 3.0 inch LCD
recently and cant recommend it enough. Takes really colour rich shots and the Full HD video is amazing. Its got stereo mics and records excellent sound too. Very happy I went for this camera.

Ya i got the TZ6, couldn't justify HD recording, for my uses at least. Anyone who's used my TZ6 are like 'i need this'. Is a very able camera, so easy to use too, just whack it on AI if you cba to mess around.

I was using various "big" cameras up until recently. I sold them and bought the Lumix so my last upload where from it.
flicker page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/35084176@N02/
There is also a video on there but flickr doesn't do HD. You can see a 460p video on youtube here.

Its worth noting that you can upload a full HD file to youtube. I keep it down to 460 so it plays better for people.
Plus listen to the audio quality for a compact camera.
