Scott, first just let me say your photos are spectacular. If you don't mind, I'd like to ask you some questions about digital cameras. I'm planning on buying my first one soon, and don't know squat about it.
After asking a lot of people and browsing a lot of sites, I've narrowed it down to the Canon S50, Olympus C5000, and Sony DSC-P10. Do you know much about these cameras? From the reviews on dpreview, they seem pretty much equal; a lot of the details were over my head, but the general feel that I got was that the S50 tends to introduce a lot of noise and "chromatic aberrations." The Sony produces basically the same quality images but has much less manual features (which I probably won't use anyway, I'm pretty much a point and shoot guy). As far as the Olympus, one person I talked to said that they are not a great brand. Overall, everyone I talked to likes Canon the best. Just wanted to get your opinion.
Oh, also, what's the difference between the Canon S series and G series; all I know is that the G series is a bit more expensive.
Thanks!
