Default Konika-Minolta Z2 vs. Fujifilm S5500 vs. Fujifilm S3500 vs. CanonA95 vs. Canon G5

Hi,

Which would you buy!!!... I'm looking for a digital camera with the
following features:
* long zoom (would be very nice, but will compromise if can get a
better quality camera/picture with lesser zoom)
* at least 4MP
* excellent reliability
* ability to shoot macro 10 cm (would be nice if possible)
* good level of manual control but most importantly exceptional
'automatic mode'. Want a camera that will take great pictures on auto
mode.
* easy to use user-interface (have used Nikon Coolpix 4300 and find the
user interface a little bit of a hassle to use)
* ability to focus/shoot well in low light is also desirable

These are the approximate prices I can get them for:
Konika-Minolta Z2 - AU$549 (US$384)
Fujifilm FinePix S5500 - AU$549 (US$384)
Fujifilm FinePix S3500 - AU$369 (US$258)
Canon PowerShot A95 - AU$573 (US$401)
Canon PowerShot G5 - AU$668 (US$467)

I've read the specs through and have become more confused! Liked the
feel of the Fujifilms. Haven't seen any example galleries of shots
taken by Fujufilm s5500. Thought the finish of K-M Z2 was a bit cheap
-ie plasticy, but have seen some example photos which were excellent.
Have always heard good things about Canons, but their long zoom camera
doesn't take my fancy.

Thanks for your opinions.
PretzelX
