12x Optical zoom is huge as far as digi cams go; I haven't seen anything larger yet.
And it fits your budget, and is closer to the DSLR type cameras with decent shutter speed, and tons of manual options. |
I got an S3 a couple of weeks ago and it's awesome. I have recommended it to a lot of people. Built in 12x zoom and the ability to add an adapter/hood for filters and lenses is key too.
One thing that I really like about it is it is not as menu driven as most compacts are. There are dedicated buttons for macro/iso/etc. you can get some amazing pics with the super macro mode which will focus on something right against the lens.
