mentioned.

Shooting In Snow
A polariser filter will cut down snow glare-reflections and give a bluer
sky , if your shutter isnt real fast it will also help 1 stop to reduce
light.

pocket digicam with good glass
Read reviews at dpreview, with present manufacturing systems good glass
comes as cheap as 200$ on some name brands. The other 2 factors you
forgot are the sensor and control program.

50-200$ get one at 1/3-2mp
