My camera of choice at the moment is the Canon Powershot SX410.

It won me the Photo of the year catergory for scenic photo on here.

Also here is two examples of night shots I've done with it (freehand too)

I currently also have a DCR-SX30E recorder which I've just found.
It's 720p (Not quite HD), it apparently has low light capturing, so I'll have a go with that tonight to get an idea. It's by far the best digital camera I personally own, so it will give an idea of whether dSLRs are needed for the small pieces of work I do. I don't plan on using it as primary because it's main function is recording, so I feel as if it won't be too good.
Will report back with examples of my work tonight for further discussion!
