Looking at the P850. Specs look good.
Pros: Schneider-Kreuznach 36-432mm f/2.8-3.7 zoom, image stabilization, big LCD, easy-share.
Cons: A little slow click-to-capture and between shots?

Any experience with this camera or Kodak digitals in general? Image clarity, inside/outside use, auto focus, etc etc. Would appeciate any feedback. Seems to be less written in general re: the Kodak digitals.

Also considering the Canon S2 IS which also looks good but is $100-150 more.

I bought the p850 but it was so painfully slow and such poor image compared to my old 6330 that I returned it and now have the canon s2is which is unbelievably better. I like Kodak products and only hope I had two lemons. (Yes I bought two kodak p850s and both were the same--slow and poor images.
