I think you meant Canon S2 IS

S2 is so different from the Panasonic's. If you prefer more control, the closer Panasonic models are FZ5 or FZ20/30.

Can find more info in the forums at clubsnap.org.

if you are serious about photography, go for a DSLR. no matter what they tell you, a digicam sensor cannot produce comparable image quality against a DSLR.

i'm still quite new to photography don wanna buy a DSLR yet. but will defintely get one in the future

**hwchoy** · 8th Sep 2005, 01:34

a high-end digicam is quite close in price to entry DSLR, so consider carefully.

Choy,

Are you thinking of upgrading too? Are are you going to milk the trusty G5 to it's last drop (or pixel)?

Cheers,

Benny,

Seems like you keep bugging Choy to upgrade...

**hwchoy** · 8th Sep 2005, 11:17

Benny, I will make a cheapskate bid on your second-hand 20D

It's with KF now.

I think you will find a 350D more than suitable for your needs. Costing only marginally more than a G6 these days. You already own all the necessary accessories. You may still get some $$ back from your G5 when you upgrade. Your total upgrading cost may be less than you think.

Cheers,

**TanVincent** · 13th Sep 2005, 00:29

coz i heard your shutter is going anytime soon...

**XnSdVd** · 13th Sep 2005, 01:23

Bah, just go for a cheap 300D. It's got a slightly screwy auto-focus but it gets the job done.
