Most of the people here use more expensive slr camera's, not saying that no one here has a point and shoot, just saying that there might not be too many recommendations so try this approach:

Think about your last camera (or any camera you've ever had/used) and make a list of things/features that you need/want/and don't want the new one to have.

Then go searching for anything that meets those requirements and falls in your price range, there will probably be a few. After you have them picked out read up on reviews, look at pictures taken with them, and even go to a store that might have a display model and see if it feels good to hold/has nice button placement/etc.

I know it seems like a lot of work but in the end you wont be kicking yourself for buying a camera that doesn't meet your expectations, trust me
