Fuji F10 better than the SD500?

I still say my samples demonstrate the f10's strengths over the canon's much more clearly... I don't think they should be discredited just because it's so blatent. One of the selling features of the f10 is "Anti-Blur Program reduces image blur due to camera shake and subject movement in low light conditions". Now, you may not be able to conclude which camera ultimately has the best image quality (in my opinion the sd500 wins there by a small margin, but I'm finding this seems to be much more subjective than I would've thought) from the samples I posted, however as far as practical use goes you will be able to get more usable shots with the fuji than with the canon and this is what I was attempting to show. I didn't post examples of unmoving or posed objects with exif data because you can find tons and tons of those all over, what I couldn't find were examples of real world use of those situations that I keep seeing people ask about (indoor, low light, no flash, action, kids) because really those are the situations in which a compact camera is most desirable.

I think you should read this thread that i posted on 20.04.05.

Test of F10

I think the F10 is not better than the SD500. The F10 has a lot of purple fringing, and having owned the F10 and done some night shots and low light shots, I think the pics were a tiny bit cleaner, but it appeared to also have loss of detail. In other words, a little noise ninja going on.

Also not too keen on the F10's somewhat clunky menu system. But the low light revolution is still on hold in my opinion. The low light performance is probably a tiny bit better, but not nearly enough to sway my decision towards the F10 all things considered, and believe me, I weigh low light performance heavily.
