Q. I want to buy a good camera. I have about a $150-200 price range. I want at least 10 megapixels, shoots HD video and durable. Doesn't have to be really durable but it can't break easy.
Answer
Take a look at the Canon Powershot 300 HS. Its a small little point and shoot but is great and has the capability to shoot stunning shots. It's the world's thinnest digital camera with a 24mm ultra Wide-Angle lens and 5x Optical Zoom and Optical Image Stabilizer, Canon's HS SYSTEM with a 12.1 MP CMOS and DIGIC 4 Image Processor improves shooting in low-light situations without the need for a flash, full 1080p HD Video for exceptional quality with stereo sound, High-speed Burst Mode captures 8.0fps, Smart AUTO intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based on 32 predefined shooting situations, super slow motion movie records video at high speeds to allow slow motion playback, zoom optically while shooting video and keep footage stabilized with Dynamic IS and lowers noise levels at higher ISO settings.

Why do you want a high pixel count on a camera?

Answer
It seems to be the popular thing to do now to jump on the "megapixels don't matter" bandwagon. Actually it is true and not true. I have an old TWO megapixel camera I keep in the car, and I can promise you, a 24 x 36 inch print made from that would be horrid compared to what would come out of my Canon 5D MkII with a much larger sensor and 21 megapixels. But, a camera with a sensor the size of medium format film with 60 megapixels, such as the Hasselblad HD4 would put my Canon to shame at VERY LARGE print size and close scrutiny of detail. But... in the real world, which means prints in the typical size ranges obtained by most people, there really is not THAT much importance in MP count. There are other things that also affect photo quality to a huge extent, ... things such as sensor size and thus pixel size, lens design, processing "engines", and noise containment.
So you cannot make a blanket statement that megapixels don't matter, but for most people, they really don't matter that MUCH.
A high megapixel count does give you the ability to do more cropping into a photo without excessive quality loss, but frankly, if you are having to consistently crop into your photos to that extent, you more seriously need to work on your photographic technique than you need more pixels.
