Cameras..

For my birthday my mom said i can pick out a new camera ~$300
right now i've been messing around with 2 possibilities but looking through the latest Consumer Reports there was another one added to the list

it's between
  • Canon S3 IS (6MP)
  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8K (7.2MP)
  • Fujifilm Finepix S6000 (6.3MP)

they're all 6-7MP and i'm looking for something with a decent zoom
any suggestions or critiques are welcome, i sure as hell can't decide yet

I have the S3 IS, and I love it. I haven't messed with the other two at all though, so I can't tell you what they are like.

Do some reading here (lots of unbiased reviews and specs): http://www.dcresource.com/

Here's the S3 IS review: http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/ca...hot_s3-review/

Check out the Sony DSC-H7. I got to play around with it today and its a pretty nice 8.1 MP camera.
