Looking for a digital camera to use on my honeymoon at the end of June.

Was eagerly waiting for the Sony H1 review...now that I've read Jeff's review I was thinking about the Canon S2 or the Panosonic Z5....Here in Canada they are all about the same price ($699).

Now I see that the Canon S1 price has dropped quite a bit.....it is available for about $200-$250 less than the other cameras.

Could really use some help - what do you think?

(Looking for a camera that will take good pics and has good video mode as well - thought that zoom would be a great feature to own! I do wear glasses so that is definitely a concern as well!

Your advice would be GREATLY appreciated. :)

Sad to say, never did get a response.

I've noticed that alot of people read my post though....so here is my update.

I bought the Canon S1 IS..played around with it for a few days and loved it.

Then I read Jeff's review of the Canon S2 IS as soon as he posted it and knew I had to have that camera. I returned mine to the store and ordered the Canon S2 IS and a 1 gig card....just opened the box today and loving it!!!

You will too! :)
