I took a quick look at the Canon S3-IS and the Sony H2.
I found the eyepiece electronic finder unacceptably unsharp
even with my best efforts to focus the eyepiece; the Sony's
finder is considerably better. I would consider the H2 over
the H5 for its lower image noise levels (the images are otherwise
similar, so why pay the extra?).

Subject: CANON S3 or SONY H5 ?


Hello,

I am shopping for a digital camera. I narrowed down my search to two cameras: The Sony Canon S3 and the Sony H5. The S3 can be
controlled by the PC, while the H5 cannot. The H5 has a large display, while the S3 does not. Which one should I buy? They are
priced almost the same. Thank you.
