Have you considered other ultra-zooms from Konica Minolta, Olympus, and Panasonic?
I bought the S1 IS so I'm biased... out of the two you listed, I like the S1 IS better because it has image stabilization and excellent video mode... BUT if you just care about picture quality, something like the Panasonic FZ3 is better than any of these... |

I think the S1 is better than the competition (except Panasonic FZ3)--hence resulting in me buying the S1 over the rest. However, do keep in mind that the S1 IS has horrible auto-focus in low-light (especially since it lacks an AF-assist lamp which is useful in night for short-range pics)... (BTW, shouldn't you be comparing the Konica Minolta Z2 and Z3--not Z1? I don't thik the Z1 is really a worthy competitor. I only look at Z2/Z3 (along with Panasonic FZ3), when I was buying my camera) |

That's interesting. Around here, the FZ3 was cheaper than the S1. Where are you located? Phil |

The U.S.
Well, that explains the price difference. It's been quite a few years since I was in South America, and I certainly wasn't shopping for digital cameras then, so I don't know what the current pricing structure is. Both of the cameras you mentioned are fine, and will make great pictures. One really isn't "better" than the other - they just have different features, and you just have to decide which features are important to you. Don't sweat the decision.... Phil |

It is truth that canon s1 does not take off good photos with low luminosity? I have a Sony p72 and this is a serious problem: the slowness when the light is little.Therefore I want I trade it.
