Its been a great little camera has my S4 but time has come to replace it. My wife has a A20 which I enjoy using. I am looking at spending around £100 to £130. There are so many different models, I wondered what could be reccomended.

What do you need your camera to do? Without that information, we cannot advise you.

I need something that I can take about with me so I can take pictures wherever I may be, I enjoy using my current camera taking Scenery Shots and pictures of flowers. I go to Canada frequently and take pictures of different landscapes and scenery over there. I also enjoy taking pictures of friends and family. I orignally chose my s4 because it was light and small enough to fit in my pocket.

So essentially, you are after a pocketable 'point 'n shoot' camera.

Does it need to be waterproof?
Is shake reduction important to you?
Do you need/want complete manual control?
Do you need a macro function?
Do you need a proper viewfinder, or just the LCD viewing screen for composition?
Do you favour any particular make?
Do you favour a particular memory card type?

These are just some of the many questions that might need to be answered before you can choose which of the several hundred available cameras that might suit your needs.
