Stunning difference! So the S1 IS has exposure settings that lets you do 
night shots like that? Nice.

; Mine can do a few different lenses, but is somewhat limited. It was
; $350. The Canon digital Rebel has a much more flexible lense setup,
; but is between $800 and $900. I think there is one from Nokia in the
; same price range as well, but I'm not sure.

; That's not configurable? I know I can set mine to not reset when the
; media is removed, so the numbers go up sequentially from when the camera
; is first turned on.
