Camera advice for someone who knows next to nothing about cameras...

74.215.224.21

except how to push the button. I am looking for a compact digital camera. It must be compact (one without lense attachments) so I can take it into concert venues. I've read that the pixel count is not so very important in a compact digital camera, but that the degree of zoom is (at leat 10x being preferable.)

My questions are whether there any specifications that can tell me how a camera performs in subdued lighting, and can tell me how clear a picture it can produce with the zoom fully extended?

Anyone have any suggestions for compact digital cameras able to do better in subdued lighting, and from a distance?

Thanks for the help.
