Canon Pro90 vs Fuji6900

[Mindbomb]

Has anyone done/know of any such side-by-side comparison? (except the simple one available here at dpreview)

Seems like this canon has got all the 6900 features + an amazing stabilized lense and much much more...--Ido.

Oh my God.. The Pro90 seems better than the 6900 with the long zoom lense, Stabilizer, good color balance, ISO 50, noise reduction, flip-out LCD, TTL flash mount... Oh my God...

Thanks Cassandra.

Ah but have you taken into consideration the overall image quality (i.e. colors), price and the fact that the Pro90 is only a 2.6MP camera?

Well, the Canon has a 10x zoom and an image stabilizer, but nearly everything else is in favour of the FP 6900, I would say. The Canon is a very nice camera, no doubt about that, but for the 10x zoom you have to accept a much lower resolution, a much bigger and heavier camera, and a much worse EVF (the display is quite nice, though) -- and of course it's much more expensive.

FWIW I own both the 6900 and the Olympus 2100UZ which is for all intent and purposes the same as the Canon. I use both cameras regularly. The 6900 has two major advantages IMO: more pixels and the best color that I've seen in any of the digicams out there.

Price is nowadays about the same (I already own the 6900) give or take $50 to $100... The difference between 3.3 (actually image in the fuji has got 3,100,000 pixels) and 2.6 ain't that much to make a real difference. I am not sure that the color balance in the canon isn't one of the best ones available in digicams as well...
Oh wel.. decisions...
