Which would you say is the better camera?

[Hiram Yates]

So I figured out the answer to my galvanometer question ( http://www.cinematography.com/forum2004/in...showtopic=16960 ) and found out that is much more expensive and involved than I want to go through right now... so I went lookin for some other cameras and have found a few that I really like but was wondering if anyone could offer me some info on the best buy:

1: Nizo pro - macro and AA batteries

 

2. Nizo 560 - Schneider 7-56 lens, light weight.

 

3 S800 - older style 7-80mm lens, no macro, crappy 1.3 volts batteries required...

 

4 None - the Canon is not in the same league as the above 3.

Awesome, thanks so much for the info... I would have never known about the batteries on the S800, I really appreciate it!
