I had to send my Fuji S9000 in for repairs so to get me by, I bought a Fuji S2000HD. Well, I was soooo dissapointed with the colors and lack of depth, faces washed out, horrible. I wanted to wait for the faster SX1is but I went back and bought the Canon SX10is instead.
The Canon SX10is is very well built and feels solid, impressive lens, zoom in all the way and grab some blur-free shots you won't believe! Grab birds out of the sky! I don't know how I made it without Image Stabilisation all these years. I like the "common sense" menus, the AA batteries (I use 2900MAH NiMh) and they last all day.
The zoom has two speeds, Fast to get to where you want it and slow to "fine tune" the zoom. During Video, only "slow zoom" will work (makes sense). The grip could be bigger but I have large hands. Auto does very well, but sometimes I want to customize the flash settings and It does that well. My Fuji S9000 has almost NO shutter lag or delay, when I pre-focus before the shot, It's INSTANT. With the Canon there is a 2-4 sec delay (with flash) but it can be reduced a little through the Menu settings. You can set it to "P", "Force Flash" and It will pull off continous shots at around 1.5 seconds one after the other.
For a P&S up against other P&S's I give it a 4.5 stars but here in the real world up against cameras that are also within reach, Nikon D40, Lumix G1, It's a solid 3.5. I am glad I own this camera.
