What kind of camera works best for rock concerts?

Question

Does anyone know what kind of camera (under or around $150) will work best at a rock concert? I'm trying to find a new one that takes good pictures where you can see the people on stage and has good sound on a video clip. The camera I have now has horrible sound when I record a clip, mostly because of the bass guitar. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

There are no cameras in your price range that will take good pictures and give you good sound.  All small cameras have small microphones and will give you terrible sound.  And as for the pictures, unless you are in the front row, you need a good zoom.  A DSLR would give you decent pictures, but they are way out of your price range and aren't allowed at concerts anyway.  

Buy a program for the pictures, and a CD for the music, and forget about taking a camera.

Answer 2

A Cannon would work the best.
