Thanks for your replies. I hadn't considered the Olympus but am still seriously considering the Fuji 9500, despite your reservations! I like the idea of a manual z*om instead of buttons and using ubiquitous AA rechargables as against the Olympus dedicated battery. The photos on your site taken with the Fuji look fine to me - I would be delighted to get similar, especially if they're straight from the camera and not post processed with Photoshop or similar. I doubt I'd use RAW.
I looked at the Canon S80 but worried that the smaller digicams would not give such nice results, smaller lens and processor etc. Also I want the big z*om. (Censor wouldn't accept zo*!)
Although the Pentax offer is tempting I guess, as Fred says, it's a pain to carry all that gear in your pack. I don't see carrying the Fuji 9500 as being any problem so that's probably the way I'll go. Now to find the best prices...

: Hi

: We have used an Olympus C-5060WZ and Fuji S9500 over the last year and I'm inclined to say that the Olympus is the better of the two.
