I want something with a decent number of megapixels.

I want something as small and lightweight as possible.

I want something where I can select the settings at the beginning of the night and then point and shoot and have it be pretty automatic.

Good in lowlight situations would be a plus.

I don't care how much it costs.

These examples were shot with different cameras, but basically, I want it for silly pix like these with around this level of picture quality:






So what should I get?

For an around the town camera get a Canon Powershot G3, they are very nice with 4.1MP and have a nice quality image. The body of the camera kinda small but the price may get you, I beleive they run $599 to $750, but well worth it for a nice quality camera, we had the Powershot G2 and it was very nice.
