Would you all say that the S1 IS is the better camera?
I've read the reviews on these cameras but curious about your actual user
comparisons. I know the A80 has 4Megapixels as compared to the S1 IS having
only 3.2Megapixels, but the S1 IS has 10X zoom & Image stabilization. Does
one take clearly better pictures than the other? Or are they almost the
same? I'll probably mostly use the manual controls, rarely using a flash.
