Price not really the issue - for the right camera, I'll probably pay whatever the cost except for some of the Leica cameras I have seen (£1300+).

Chris: thanks for your advice. I currently have a Canon Ixus 850 IS but I find that the picture noise can be a little too much - although I am not using it at its best resolution so will do some landscape work at 3072x2304 and see if that helps any. Just seems to me that if I am going to start moving on, I could do well to start with a 10mp camera. The Panasonic Lumix TZ10 looks good to me so might be worth considering.

Geoff: I have a cheap Jessops tripod which is pretty lightweight but I'll take a look at others you mention. As for other hillwalking kit - you could say I have quite a lot, yes! I even get sent kit by manufacturers to test for them.
