I want to buy a digital camera which has image stabilization so that I can shoot in low light. I have a limited budget so which camera should I buy

I thought I would go for Panasonic but heard that its picture quality is not good and it can shoot well in low light, the image noise increase drastically. I have heard good reviews of Canon S2 IS and SD 700 IS but they are expensive. I have also thought about Sony T 9 and T 30. So which camera should I buy. Please Help Me

Are you thinking of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ3? It has optical image stabilization and does some really good work considering its low price tag.

The Cybershot T30 is a fantastic camera (a little more bang for your buck than the T9, I think).

What other features are important to you aside from IS? That may help us point you to a better choice.

One thing- don't worry overly much about reviews unless everyone is saying a particular thing about a camera... lots of times I've bought a camera that got reviewed poorly for something and found later that it wasn't a problem at all. So just be wary of that.

Features that are important to me are image quality, colour , shooting in low light as I often have to do when in parties or out at night and most of all the budget.
I can spare to about $300. Please guide me to the best camera with these features.

The T30 might be a good choice for you. It is just over 300 dollars at most places (there are some prices listed to the right-hand side of the page if you click on that link).

A few others to consider:
Canon Powershot A85: I own this camera and I love its low light images. They sometimes do have a yellow cast to them, which I think looks great and so usually don't take out, but if you have a photo editing program the yellowness can easily be removed with the color balance tool. Takes perfectly colored daytime pictures.

Another great one to look at is the FZ20, although again a little above your price range. Also check out the Sony Cybershot P150 or its cousin the P200 for very true colors, low image noise and good twilight modes. Both retail for around 200 dollars and can be found on Amazon.com.
