Why do you ask? Probably, nobody knows. If you are serious, check the MANY
reviews. You can start at www.dpreview.com

I'm sure it depends on how you measure. If compare the single best photo
(based on the lens sweet spot) from each camera you will get a different
answer than if you take an average of the two extreem telephoto and wide
angle shots.

I recently took some photos of a school concert. The fact that I could
mount a flash with a GN of 120 on my camera meant I got pictures at all. A
camera without a hot shoe wouldn't have worked at all.

So I guess you need to define the specific shooting situation first, and
then ask what camera could get the best quality in that particular
circumstance.

If it helps, DPREVIEW uses the Oly 8080 as their benchmark non-DSLR for
image quality.

I personally like the Fuji f810 seeing how well it did against the Oly
8080

I have been extremely happy with the results I continuously get from a Canon
Powershot Pro1.

I have used the Sony 828, the Olympus 8080 and the Nikon 8700, and compared
with them the Pro1 give me consistently brilliant results, particularly when
shooting RAW.

You have to forget about automatic everything settings if you want to get
the best from this camera.

Hope that helps

Sam
