The FUJI F30 seems to be THE P&S to get these days... I have a canon s700IS and a 10D (soon to be a 5D), but if i had to do it all over again, i'ld probably get the Fuji to get shutter and aperture priority.

So what are you going to do Ryan? You asked for help, now tell us which way you are leaning, or what you decided to buy.

I took the lazy way out and ran up the road to Staples. It was $329. It doesn't take regular batteries as a back up though, does it? Get ready for all the questions.

No it does not. It takes a square rechargeable battery.
