I'm looking to buy a cheap compact camera (possibly second hand), that is capable of capturing an image without a long delay once the button is pressed. I had a compact camera a couple of years ago and the delay was so long that the subject had invariably moved by the time the image was captured!
Budget is approx £100

Thanks in advance!

Nikon V1 or J1
"The Nikon V1's full-autofocus shutter lag in single-point AF mode (center AF position) was incredibly fast, at only 0.097 second with the 10-30mm kit lens."

A bit of practice can help reduce the effect of shutter lag

Thank you, the Nikon V1 looks like it has potential.
