Need Help deciding between these cameras

[raniosman]

Like the title says.

Been searching around and have landed on these cameras. I need input from anyone with good camera knowledge since none of my brain cells carry info on digital cameras and I don't want to rely on choosing just by which is more pricier.

I'm looking more for quality instead of $$. If there are better ones for prices before $250Cdn that I haven't listed, I would take suggestions lol

1) Olympus Stylus 7000 12mp - $240Cdn

2) Canon Powershot SD780 IS 12.1mp - $200Cdn

3) KODAK EASYSHARE Z1285 12mp - $120Cdn

4) Fuji film S2000HD 10mp - $200Cdn

I might be going to the U.S. from Toronto on a road trip and need a camera to take some amazing pictures with. Mostly scenery and attraction pictures. Maybe some videos if necessary.

Thanks fellow RFDers! :D

I have the Fujifilm S2000HD.
Good camera for the price.
Picture quality is good.
Does excellent HD videos. Zooming is allowed in video mode.

The Canon Powershot SD780 IS doesn't look to have excellent image quality from reviews. Lots of noise at low ISO's.
It does HD videos as well.

Don't go Kodak anything. In my opinion, they've never had decent compact digital cameras which produced decent quality pictures.

Olympus, don't know much about.


I can suggest the FujiFilm F200EXR.
It's compact and does excellent quality pictures, at high ISO's as well.
Reviews have excellent verdict towards the camera.
