get a waterproof/dustproof/shockproof camera.
that way when you're at burningman sand wont' be a problem, you can drop it and get it soaking wet with vodka and it won't be a problem.

10x and good low light usually dont work together so well.
All the widest aperture f1.8 or f2, (great for low light) compacts have 3-4 times zooms. these cameras -
Olympus xz-1
canon s95
nikon p300
lumix lx5The HX9v you linked is pretty ace, ive played with one loads. It can take 10 full resolution (16mp) shots in 1 second!
AND the video on it is the best video quality Ive seen from a compact camera, it can do 1080p at 60fps! that's sweet for some half speed full res videos.
HX9v has a new sensor which is good in low light too.
LOL @ DOF effect. you of all people! youre a PS pro, you should be ashamed! (nah i get ya, its fun having little time saving gizmos in camera)
So yeah the HX9v is great, but check flickr and get a feel for the pics, because ive found the sony HXxV range when it comes to colours and white balance can be a bit reddish and inaccurate, but you probably wouldn't notice unless you're a avid photographer.
