I had a great time with my SX730 until my daughter dropped it in some water.  I was quite happy with the photo quality.  Particularly given how light and compact it is.

Not as much happy initially with my ZS100.  It seemed like the pictures never were quite sharp.  I read a few complaints, including on dpreview reviews and www.cameralabs.com about quality control issues with Panasonic.  But after quite a bit of use, the pictures seemed to get sharper.  So I am wondering if some mechanical mechanism needed to wear in a bit.   Anyway, happier with it now.

I will be curious to hear about your comparisons.
