Canon s30 vs Olympus c4000 vs Fuji FINEPIX 3800

[dxkj]

I can get these 3 cameras for the same price (or all within like 10 dollars of each other), which should I get? Originally I had my heart set on the S30, but due to shipping canceled I get to make the decision all over again.


Any input from owners would be very helpful.

Fuji 3800.

Can't beat the 6X zoom and the sexy SLR body

I was just deciding between the C4000 and the 3800. I went with the Fuji for the 6x zoom and the xD memory card. I won't need anything larger than a 3 MP camera. I definately won't be doing any prints larger than 8x10 and both will do that. The Olympus supposedly has slightly better picture quality, but both are close. The Olympus is also supposedly better in low light conditions.

The major plus I had for the Olympus was the ability for full manual control, but I came to the conclusion that I'd never use it. I'll let the camera electronics figure things out.

Bought the 3800 ($334 shipped from www.buydig.com), 8 NiMH batteries w/ rapid charger (2100 mAh - $55 shipped from www.bugeyedigital.com), and a Fuji 128 MB xD memory card ($61 shipped from www.buy.com)


I had fun today.
