Which one and why? I currently have the S1 IS, but I'm thinking of selling it for the P850. My wife just bought the V530 with the printer dock, so there's that "synchronicity", but no other considerations. Any comments/opinions are welcome.

Thanks,

Russ

I bought the P850 for my dad and he likes it. However, most reviewers would probably prefer the S1S. It has a better lens and takes slightly better pictures.

Oops! I mistook the S1S for the S2S. I wonder how much you can get for an S1S now. Let me revise my previous posting's recommendation.

I think most reviewers would prefer the S2S to the P850 because it takes slightly better images andhas a better burst mode. Both cameras are available for under $300 online now.
