Need some digital camera advice?

Im looking to get a new compact digital camera, Nothing fancy im not a professional or anything !! Anyway i dont actually know much about them but my previous camera was a lumix panasonic Dmc type. I loved this camera but unfortunately my sister broke it :( and it is no longer under warranty. I can no longer find this camera in the shops so im looking for a similar camera. I was just wondering if anyone could advise me what i should get for the best value etc. Ive been looking at this Fugi http://www.did.ie/fujifilm-digital-camera-jv300blk-bund and this slightly more expensive nikon http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Nikon-Coolpix-S3300-Digital-Camera-Review.htm

I really just want a reasonably priced camera Preferably under 100 euro or a little over.that i can use to take shots of my drawings and, maybe the odd concert.also it has to have a chargeable battery because i hate HATE cameras that require AA battery's. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Any advice much appreciated xx

My Nikon Coolpix p500 isn't reading my memory card?

Hi, I've been using the same memory card for my Coolpix P500 since I got it, and all of a sudden, my camera has been storing the pictures I take to the internal memory on the camera, instead of the memory card.It doesn't even appear to be reading the card. I formatted the memory on the card, the camera, made sure the card wasn't locked, and even tried using a new memory card. None of those things worked. Can anyone help me?

Why doesnt my camera focus?

I have a Nikon Coolpix S3300 camera, and when I am recording a video, most cameras i see automatically focus on the subject when it is up close. Mine doesnt do this, it is just average.
Is it because the camera isnt 'expensive' enough? even though it was just over £100…
Also while you are reading this, how can i get a blurred background (like in proffesional pictures) IF i can? because my camera isnt a huge bridge camera or anyything its pretty 'cheap' however it is 16 megapixels?
thanks for any help!"

Why does my sd card have blank files after i remove it from my laptop?

After I took some pictures with my camera I inserted the SD card into my laptop to save them. When i removed it from my laptop i went back to look at the pictures and some are blank with the words "file contains no image." I was wondering if this is a sign that I have a virus or if somethings wrong with my camera. Its a Nikon coolpix I got like 5 years ago.
Added (1). I always eject it before I take it out.

What camera to purchase?

I'm looking for a camera that helps take clear cut candid shots (good focus) and strong low-light pictures. I work a lot with landscapes (hazy, cloudy weather) and busy portraits.

I had a Sony DSC-H3, it was good for bright outdoor pictures, but nothing else. I just purchased a Nikon P510 but it takes far too long to focus as well as O. K. low light pictures.

So to sum it up: Good low light & strong focus. Speed is good :) Any price range. Any model.
Thanks!
