The Panasonic one looks good ,But for some reason i don't like anything Panasonic,all the electronics i have ever had are either Sony or Samsung.I may check some reviews on it though.
And i don't want to go over 250$,maybe a little more only if it's worth it.

Here's a Sony one then. It's a little over $250 but maybe it's worth it.

Depends what you need it for, have you considered a pocket hd blog camera?
I own the SONY Bloggie MHS-CM5, very nice HD pocket camera with 5x optical zoom.

This one on Amazon is 500$ that's way expensive for what i need.

I was originally considering the PM5 it's very cheap and small but the digital zoom was a turn off this one is double the price or even more but it's actually looks good.One thing though i find very hard to find when i search is the size of the video files.I heard that some cameras can produce a 10 minutes video in 2GB and others in just 200 MB.

Don't go with the PM5 the focus is rubish I had it and returned it. If you can find it the CM5 has proper focus and 5x optica.
What are you going to be filming?

Oh I got my CM5 from America for $215us shipped.
