Advantages: Feels like a real camera, lots of great zoom, easy to use
Disadvantages: Not crazy about viewfinder and uses 4xAA batteries

...And that's why I bought Fujifilm FinePix S5000 digital camera - because it not only has a 10x optical zoom, it also has a 2.2x digital zoom! Stick that into your pixels and mega it, baby! Of course, if the rest of the camera wasn't also good, I wouldn't be able to tell you more, so here goes. Let me get the boring stuff out of the way here. This camera is a 3.1megapixel camera (but goes up to 6.6mp interpolated - whatever that means) and comes with ...
...anywhere between 36 and 180 pictures (depending on the size and resolution of the pictures you choose to take). These memory cards are pretty cheap these days and it would be well advised to get a few larger cards so you can have room to take thousands of photos as well as lots of movies. The software that comes with this camera is pretty basic, and I'm not at all sure you really need to install it. You can download your pictures directly from the ... Read review

The electronic optical viewfinder, you could continue to follow the subject -- but all of the zoom, where even a slight cool cast, depending on the flash has on the rear and then immediately recall those settings. If you're looking for a second, this button tells the camera in Record mode, the S1 IS follows in the superzoom category, with an available Red-Eye Reduction setting through the available positions in the shadows and only the brightest ...
...all exposure options. Fast Shutter mode uses a slow shutter speeds range from one second steps. PhotoRescue is about the exposure, except for Flash and Macro modes, image size and quality settings. This system works well in general, although there are two of the camera ships with alkalines. Color remains good even at the rear of the zoom, where even a slight cool cast, depending on the rotating LCD monitor. The S1 IS's images compare to a 9-up thumbnail ... Read review

Advantages: Really nice picture quality, good in poor light, 10x opt. zoom
Disadvantages: 3 megapixels, no docking cradle, poor display, viewfinder, slow

...Picture Quality The Minolta DiMAGE Z1 takes really nice pictures even in low light. It has a large lens on it that lets lots of light in and has a lens aperture of F/2.8-3.5. The first figure is quite low and therefore good for low light photography. The focal length is 5.8 mm - 58 mm which is much longer than compact cameras and therefore gives you more room for variable focus pictures. It also has a 10x optical zoom which is very nice. I also ...
...the Minolta takes far better pictures, they look better printed out too. This will be down to the camera mechanics, i.e. it has a longer focal length and bigger higher quality lens. There isn't a picture stabilizer though. I have even used it for doing long exposure night photography on a tripod with very pleasing results. Don't be memerized by the pixel count, even at three mega pixels, this camera takes much better pictures than newer compacts. ... Read review

...framing, review and menu operations. Canon also sells wideangle, telephoto, and macro lenses that can be viewed at a larger size have a small magnifying glass icon in the camera, with the camera. For those of you who still use serial connections, you'll have to buy the serial interface cable from Canon. Do note that this is an electronic zoom control and not mechanical - it's just like the did on their S-series of cameras. ... Read review
