I was planning to buy the Konica Z6 but after much consideration settled for the Canon S2.

Advantage of both Canon S2 and Konica Z6.

– 12X Optical Zoom.
– Standard AA Batteries.
– Standard SD Memory.
– Many SLR like features and finer controls.

Canon S2 Advantage:

– Better image quality as per web reviews.
– LCD can rotates around which provides flexibility.
– Super Macro mode to click real closeups.
– Looks better.

Konica Z6 Advantage:

– 6 Megapixel vs Canon S2 which is 5 Megapixel.
– Cheaper by US$100.
– A bit ligher than S2.

I have been using the Canon S2 for a week now, here is what I didn’t like about it.

– Bulky and a bit heavy as compared to my older point and click.
– You tend to press the menu button by mistake while taking a photo.
