camera for recption parties?

[Ariel K]

Hello,


I have an art gallery and I need to take good photos during the reception parties + I want to be able to shot movies that I will upload to youtube - the camera will probably never see the daylight....
Which camera should I get for less then $500

thanks

Everybody will have different favorites. But I'd say the Panasonic LX3 should be one on your short list -
