[simon1]

Hi everyone.

First time poster on here.

I'm looking at upgrading my Fuji finepix 2600 which i've had for about 4 yrs now.
I want something with more megapixals and a bigger optical zoom (bigger than 3x).
Like every newie to digital camera's, there is so many to choose from but i've picked a few out to find some advice on them.

Mostly will be used for family, special occasions but will take it out when I go out on my mountain bike.

Any advice would be most appreciated. If there are any other I should be looking at, please let me know.

I've looked at Canon Powershot G6, Canon powershot S70, Olympus C-7070 wide zoom and Olympus C-7000 zoom.

Many thanks in advance.

Some of the cameras you mention are fairly large, fairly expensive, and fairly feature-laden. However, all of those cameras you mention are very capable, so without knowing what you need in terms of mp's, size, features, etc., then it would not be possible to state which is the better choice for you. After all -- all of them can easily handle family, special occasions, and outdoor shots.....
