Best USED, smallest pocketable point and shoot with a good zoom for < £80?

- Budget: Under £80, with the lens, not looking for detachable lenses!

- Country: UK

- Condition: Used

- Type of Camera: point and shoot

- Intended use: Photography and video (I'd like it to do 1080p video ideally)

- End use: Personal enjoyment, prints for family etc.

- Type of photography: Street, wildlife, portraits

- If video what style: Documentary, video essays maybe

- What features do you absolutely need: 1080P video, optical zoom > 5x, interchangeable batteries

- What features would be nice to have: Hot shoe mount

- Portability: Pocketable

- Cameras you're considering: Panasonic DMC-TZ30 (and TZ35): Amazing zoom lens, very small, relatively affordable, relatively new considering, 1080p video, seems to be similar size to Cannon Powershot S100?

- Cameras you already have: Nex 5n. It's an amazing camera, I love that the lenses are detachable. Its tiny for what it is! But, its still quite heavy and large with a lens attached. I want another camera that is pocketable and could be an EDC.

- Notes: Another camera I really like the look of is the Cannon S100, its beautifully small! But so expensive. Plus, I've heard it has reliability problems, which is a concern for me. Are there any other used options I've not found yet? The thinner and the smaller the better!
