canon powershot s2 is vs. fujifinepix s5200

[beee17]

:confused: :confused:

I'm driving myself bananas trying to decide whether to go with the Canon s2is or the Fuji s5200 (yes Iknow these are last years models but price is a consideration).

I've read thru about a dozen of the editor/user/professionals reviews and still can't convince myself that there are clear reasons for selecting one over the other.

Is there any kind of concensus out there which might enlighten me?

Thanks

IS0 400

S5200

ISO 1600

Unless you need ISO 800-1600 I'd say S2 is better if prices are similar. But S2 usually cost more. What prices are you looking at?
