CANON Powershot - SX150

Thanks nitin sir.

Any reason why you would recommend that over the other two.

Because according to my understanding, it is the oldest, has the least amount of zoom, and lacks a viewfinder.

I have used a SX130IS and minus the viewfinder I have found it an amazing cam when it comes to image sharpness (even at full zoom), colour capture HD video recording. 12x zoom is decent enough- how much zoom do you want for a cam costing under 10k? And the 150IS is an upgrade over the 130.

Following are a few pics I have clicked from the SX130:









Regular shot:



At full 12x zoom:



Hope this camera dilemma doesn't carry on like your motorcycle

Thanks everybody.
I made up my mind.
I am going to get the Fujifilm.

The first to go was Olympus. No PASM mode meant only one thing. Useless.

The Canon and the Fuji both had PASM mode, but the Canon lost out on the viewfinder.

The Fuji is a perfect fit into the requirements. (Not to mention the 18X zoom vs the 12X on the Canon)

These two reviews were the final nails in the Canon's coffin.

So, my ranking is as follows.
Fujifilm
Canon
Olympus
