Spec me a point and click

[tintin82]

Hi Folks,

I am in the market for a new point and click digital camera, nothing fancy, just great shots. I don't care for Wi Fi / GPS, and all that fancy stuff, I just want great pics with a camera that's simple to use.

I have been a Cannon IXUS user for years having a 750 back in 2006, 95 in 2009, and my current IXUS 220 HS since 2012. It has served me well, but as time goes on the pictures just seem a bit washed out, and the low light capability is rubbish. My wife took a selection of shots on Xmas day and they were pretty blurry which frustrated us, hence my thoughts that technology might have moved on and an upgrade is overdue.

I see deals are quite good on the IXUS 185, although note that the movie is only 720p vs my current 1080p.

Any recommendations?

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Its a SGS5. Using it in auto all the time, which is probably as you say why its blurry.

Daytime shots on my phone are fantastic, whoop my compact hands down, but night shots are again blurry. Guess I need to learn how to use shutter settings
