Well, personally, I'd rather go with Fuji.. but this looks like a bad camera, somewhat. But Fuji makes great digital higher end compact digi's and SLR's.

I think I'm going to go to the store tomorrow with my parents and look at the Canon PowerShot A520 and the Fuji.. I'm just worried about the high noise levels in the A520.

& I'll ask this again.. Do stores let you return cameras if you are not satisifed?
