I was originally thinking of buying a HP812 or HP850.....then I read some reviews about S45 and thought that was camera for me. Now I read about a few questionable reviews. I was ready to order but not sure now. I'm just looking for good quality family type pics etc. Would anyone recommend another similiar priced camera over the S45? Thanks.
 
definitely go with the canon if the only other options you considered were HP !!

in my opinion HP makes good printers... nothing else
if there's one right now, would you buy a Microsoft Digital Camera?

Thansk for the responses and welcome any other pics. Is there any other digital cameras in price range that you'd recomend over the S45>

No! In fact Phil's review is what really got me interested in the S45. I was very impressed with the detail of his reviews. Guess just last minute jitters in spending my hard earned $...lol.
Now I read about a few questionable reviews.
Do you find Phil's review questionable? If there is
a better reviewer out there, I would like to know
who it is.

I wouldn't worry about it - the S45 is a great camera(just bought one
for myself). There isn't anything else out there that even comes
close,
including the Oly C-50(with its strange yellowish/orange color cast).
IMO if you read any of the other forums you will not find another camera in this class that is any better. If there was a camera that was you would be reading about it. All cameras in this class will have low light and red eye issues but with the S45 you do have the controls to help limit these issues.

As far as picture quality I have not seen any other camera in this class that tops the S45. I am happy with my decision to go with this camera.

If the $ is making you think twice, you could opt for the S30, which would give you the quality family pics you're after. You could always trade up later if it wasn't enough camera for you.

Thanks everyone for all the reassuring replys. I guess I'll order one before the wife thinks of something else to spend the $ on!

Larry has many of the same worries we have about buying the "right" camera. I posted another question asking about the S45 vs. the Minolta F100 which I've been impressed with. The Canon will give a longer movie mode which is of some interest. I'm getting the impression the two cameras are both of high quality for the money. The Minolta did move the flash a little furthur from the lens that may reduce some red eye.
