Hi guys,

I want to buy an ultra zoom camera (10x-12x), which one among the s3, h2-5, fz50, fz7, s6500 do you think will take better pictures? I'm gonna use it especially during the day to take airplanes pictures.... all I want is to have clear and focused pictures...

help me please!

Thank you!

I know, but I wanted to know your opinions..... I've already read all those reviews, but..... I really don't know what to do!:?

I'd say go for the Canon S2 IS or S3 IS. They are proven cameras. You won't be disappointed. Also, there is hardly any differencebetween the two, so between the two - its your call

I took some decent shots last year at the Wings Over Houston airshow using my Canon S1, so I'd vote Canon for the superzoom P&S.

It's coming up again in two weeks and I plan to use my Pentax K100D this time. Now I have to figure out which lens to go with.

Hey, I was there too! But with a sony dsc-p200.... mmmmm no decent shots....

I don't know guys... the s3-s2 shots look sooo soft.... I'd like something more crisp and detailed.... what do you guys think?
