people who suggest a G10 or DSLR  for  an amateur to take good family photos , simply dont have any
experience with the new cameras coming out in the last 5 years of the digital revolution

maanmo closes the eyes pick any camera , and it is good

for example
steve's digicam just review another new samsung camera
http://www.steves-digicams.com/camera-reviews/samsung/sl420/steves-conclusion-10.html


Pros

    * Excellent image quality that rivals that of more expensive digicams
    * Great shooting performance
    * Capable Smart Auto mode
    * Pleasing ISO performance up to 800
    * Nice compact body that can be tucked away in your pants pocket or small handbag
    * Awesome "bang for your buck", with a street price of $179 or less

Cons

    * The protective cover on the back is reflective and very easily scratched
    * Useless Motion Capture burst mode due to the screen blocking "Capturing" pop-up message
    * Slow standard burst mode of under 1fps


if you are taking your kids to the opening of canada line,  the last thing you want to take along is a DSLR

and  hands off that G10,    maanmo's heel is coming down !!

Samsung fanboy?? :-) j/k

I think Canon, Fuji and Nikon make some nice P&S at $300 level.

your question is best answered by a careful reading of a good review on the web

maanmo does not know anything about noise level  and acceptability to whom etc

maanmo   talks about photography and maanmo always posts his photos
maanmo talks shoots, and posts  , always,    just to put things in balance
maanmo also uses the heel, particularly with the G10

maanmo's philosophy is  when you look at social  and family photography, all noise are acceptable,  
the noise on the photos  goes very well with the tears in the eyes, in maanmo's experience

someone in this forum is selling the fujifilm finepix f200exr

maanmo bets the heel on this one, that you can get better photos with this f2000exr  than a hired photographer

this camera is guaranteed to make clear pictures , is it not ,

maanmo

after considering the question  of  chossing between 2 canons, for some time now

maanmo's  feelings are the fujifilm f200exr, featured above , is really better for the purpose
than  the 2 canons in question

the person who bought this f200exr, for his wife, and is selling it now ,  really made a very
wise decision in buying this f200exr

Only part I agree is, the F200EXR is a very good camera, take great clear pic, and it is pocket size.
