can't go wrong with the canon. I also have a Casio, and I'm not crazy with the image quality.

When it comes to picture quality, a difference of 1.2MP doesn't make that big of difference. If you want I can find the link that explains why. Having not looked at either camera somethings that could affect quality would be the kind of sensor used and its size, whether it has some kind of image stabilization, ISO ratings, etc.

Yes, the 6MP versus 7.2 is really not going to be very noticeable for you. If you really are concerned about the length of the video that the camera will take, then you might want to consider a true digital video camera...

As far as the two cameras you have put up for consideration..., I would spend the extra $80 on the Canon.

For a little more money, here's another option that's a sweet camera (little less MP, but 5x optical w/ no moving lens!)

From your two links, I'd personally go for the Casio.

Have you ever have a camera or have any past experience? If not, the Casio is probably a better camera for you because Casio's usually have best shots mode that help you pick the perfect setting whether it be day, night, water, soccer games, fireworks, leafs, etc.. You really can't go wrong.

It also has Anti-shake which is a really great option.

sorry, these guys are right. I mis-read your post. I thought one was only 3 MPs. You would see no difference in IQ. Personally, If I was buying a point and shoot again, I would look for one with the most manual settings.
More megapixels play a role in image editing. The more megapixels you have, the more flexibility you have in cropping.
Another big factor is holding it in your hands. Go to the store and hold them and get a feel for the button locations.

I would go with the canon... just because I noticed canon is a brand known more and also because I have a canon and I like it.

A lot of how the image turns out is on the photographer and some on the camera. But use it for a while and you'll get the hang of it.

Check here for a lot of examples.

I have a Casio also and is still very impressed with it. A lot of the users will state their camera type so you'll get a rough idea.

Mine is pretty good..it all depends on wich model you buy but i think that if you dont need the camera for pro reasons they will all work just fine... also you can manually change their settings to w.e looks good to you
