Camera for Video and Images

[teaboy5]

A friend is getting married and has hired a professional photogragher which is fine, but they're not having a wedding video done. They want to video the speech via their own camera but are going to purchase one for this.

They also the want to take the camera on the honeymoon for images and video as well.

What's good in the compact range? Budget is around 300-500 and I was thinking some kind of Sony would fit the bill?

Maybe something like these?

I'll pass on the info. It's not me doing this they were just asking advice. I normally do motorsport events etc from a stills point of view.
