TS query seems obvious to me : he is looking for a 'best bang for sub $500"camera, and the usage he care more is.........
And he is seeking the gurus here for some learned advice.
Then why?......
Must he list out his shooting preference, shooting style, shooting experience... or should he rephrase his qn and litter those camera technical terms/features all over his qn?? Is is a sin for a newbie to ask for a camera that can take nice picture - we know what he meant, right?
Disappointed with some of the replies!
His requirements and understanding are as blur as your comment. Please give us a good example of your answer. And please don't shy away with "not being senior" or so...Sometimes I find a little strange why we we have to be so ánalytically precise/critical 'on such posting, esp in the newbie section.

Basically he wants a compact that is:
1) below $500
2) can take decent video under low light
3) can take decent stills under bright light
And from the way he ask, it is obvious he is a noob. So no need to waste your time doing scientific analysis for him, he wont understand.
All he want is a noob recommendation, if you are not a noob then do not attempt to his question. Can skip one, nobody will blame you one.
