After very extensive research on many different camcorders, I ordered the GS500 yesterday. Try www.cnet.com,

Well, as of June 2008, there is a post in the CanoScan 8600 vs. 8800 discussion by CM-Monkey (I believe is his moniker) where he reports buying the V500 and the 8800 and his side by side comparison ends with Epson V500 the winner! So, where do we go now with this discussion? I'd rather not have to buy both scanners to do a side by side comparison myself.

Thanks for the info. I did purchase the VN5200-PC Version some months ago but I do appreciate the reply.

I compared the Canon SX30is with the Nikon P100, and the Nikon CLEARLY won when I was comparing image quality. I returned the Canon, and when I found out the P500 was being released, I also returned the Nikon P100 and will patiently wait for the P500. Where did you get your Canon? Some places have a 90 day return policy (Sams).

Thanks for the update, dsrussell. I'll take your advice and check out the review of the 765 that you mentioned at gpsmagazine.com. It's too bad that the folks at Garmin didn't include this info about the 765 in their owners manual. Must have been an oversight on their end. Again,thanks a bunch!

Larry, I have done the exact thing you have been doing. I need/prefer optical viewfinders also and can't find one to suit my needs anymore. I wrote an email to Canon about a year ago, when I was camera shopping, asking why they are eliminating it on most of their new (new at that time) Powershots. The reply I got was that they're responding to consumers who are demanding larger LCD screens and don't need optical viewfinders. I replied that they should start reading forums to see how many people are lamenting the lack of viewfinders. Some people don't like to use the LCD because it eats up battery power. Others, like me, live in the desert with bright sunshine that renders the camera pretty useless with only a washed-out LCD screen. I asked the person at Canon to pass on my pleadings to Canon powers-that-be to not eliminate optical viewfinders. I also need a Powershot size with 6x or higher optical zoom for my business use, and I love my A720IS, but that was discontinued in 2008 so I can't buy another. I can't afford $300+ for a new camera. Canon appears to no longer care about consumer comments and just goes with the flow. I have three Powershots, but may have to move on to a non-canon if I can find a camera that better matches my needs. I can't be loyal to Canon if they no longer offer what I'm looking for.

Just went through this debate myself. In the store, my husband noticed how different the screens were. The 500 series was much brighter than the 300 and sure enough, it states so on the garmin comparison page. Here's your link, hope it helps.http://www.garmin.com/garmin/cms/us/ontheroad/streetpilotcseries

All the Gs608 models I have gotten have been v3 models. The Gs605 I have gotten were v4 models. I have 2 Gs608 both v3 that have been running almost continuously for 2 years. I use them to condense multiple 10/100 IP camera streams to 1GB stream sent to a GB router. No problems.

I am considering the 880 / 770/ or 1100. Leaning to the 880- overall I think its a better value for vacations and everyday use. I went on the canon site and di t the product tour. No mention of a movie mode on the 880. I need that- in VGa. That will help my decision. Thanks

hello michael, good, great answers, but if I change it for the same P1800SX vega gives best shot, and frequencies are better, recommend P1800SX,,

They are different versions of the GS60... there is the Ghost and Ghost pro so it could be an early model with 860m. Mine is an 870m and I tink the latest is 970m. Basically check the product specs before you buy and ask the question of the vendor to make sure. The 870m is a beast!

MME says:Epson V 500, versus V 700 or V 750. I have a large number of photos from the late 1800, some very faded, others in quite good condition. Also size of photos varies a lot, from small to quite large. Have some slides as well. My main goal is to save and upgrade quality of old photographs, many of which I will be using in a book. My question, is the Epson V500 sufficient, or should I go for the V 700 or V750?

Hi, What is your operating system...PC window or Mac? I am looking for a camera that will work as a webcam also and it seems that Fujis are ones mentioned, but have not found any info on which cameras or how to hook up. I see no one replied to your posting, but wondered if you ever got the S700 to work as a webcam as i am very interested in this camera...thanks

Sorry, I do not understand. This listing is for the glasses only. These glasses require a DVR as well though. Most customers use the PV500 series DVR's as well.

What did you end up getting? I had the same dilemma but choose the 790 for its picture quality. It's a great camera and am very pleased with the results. I had fun with it right out of the box, but must confess I am a manual freak, so I did study it before the camera even came. www.steve-digicams.com posts reviews and sample pictures if you want more info. For me, it's a perfect little P&S; for your pocket.

Sorry, this post was really old! But in case you tracked it, how do you like the S200exr? I have the HS10 but am wondering if the latter would have been a better choice for sharper pictures.
