Digital Camera @ Rs.14K (Very Urgent)

Guys, I am in a hurry.

Want a good digicam @ around Rs.14k.

Which is the best among the following 3 ?

Canon A590 IS

Fuji Finepix S5800

Nikon Coolpix L16

Don't suggest canon a720 IS, SX100 IS as they are not available here in singapore.

Be quick guys, I can wait only for an hour. I have to reply back to my uncle who is in Singapore. Besides the above 3 models, you can suggest any other model if it's better than the above 3.

Hurry guys hurry

PS : Camera will be used for long distance photography, macros, festival photography along with occassional family & friends snaps.

I am falling for the Fuji finepix S5800? What say guys?

Yeah, apart from having to use batteries , Fuji Finepix 5800 is a fine choice.
Its got almost full manual controls.
Invest in a set of good rechargables and you're gold.

Thanks for the response ray raven

I don't mind carrying batteries.
Also which battery type should I go for?
Alkaline or the hydrides or so??

AFAIK , NiMH rechargables are good for digi cams.

Thank you again.
The only person replying.

I am so thinking of finalising Fuji S5800. Will call my uncle in a while.

Go for the 7.2 MP Sony W120....Its great...

W120? Its only 7.2 MP and 4X Zoom. And no manual control.

Sony H9??

H9 is good , but i dont think its available under 14k.
Its close to 500$ i think.

I finalised Canon SX 100 IS + 2 GB card.
Has 8 MP sensor, 10X optical zoom, manual controls, DIGIC III processor which brings Face detection etc.

I think I made a good choice?

Yes nice choice indeed,its one of the best canon has to offer in its P&S segment and comes second only to S5IS(very similar though)

I was considering S5 IS, but it's heavy price tag meant I had to drop it.

Though SX 100 IS has almost similar specs. I think S5 IS has a strong foot in video recording and maybe a minor in taking snaps.

So will get the SX 100 IS around a month or so. My hands are itching :))
