Replying to Buying this camera?

so basically I want a camcorder for camp this summer although im pretty low on funds. What I am looking for is pretty much something under $250 no more. I have been looking around and have somewhat of an idea what I want but im pretty much an idiot.

basically I want something that will be reliable/qualityish, be decent for skiing with, and have semi decent video quality.

I have narrowed it down to a few and this is what I am thinking of:

if you guys have any opinions on what i should get or any suggestions for a different came, please help.
