Which camera to get?

[undertai]

I can't decide which camera to get. Hopefully others that have used them can help me decide. I have narrowed it down to the following 4 cameras. Will mostly be using the camera to take pictures of my corals that I'm fragging and posting for trade or sell. The corals are in a 24g Aquapod.

Thanks in advance.

PowerShot SX110 IS
Cyber-shot Digital Camera DSC-H20/B
FINEPIX S1500FD
Nikon L100

not for nothing, but the only opinion worth a darn would be someone that owns all 4 :/

otherwise may as well label it, which camera did you get

I'd go for the canon because of the macro capabilities for coral shots.

Canon and sony have nice lenses, but the sony is fully automatic. The canon has a few controls if you want to pick your own shutter speed or apertures.

Additionally, I feel one downfall of the canon is that it takes double A batteries. This is not a problem. Do not use regular alkaline batteries as you will burn through them in 15 shots. Rechargeable double A's will work, but they don't last quite that long anyhow and both regular and rechargeable AA batteries have a tendency to bleed into the battery cell and corrode that part over a few years if you don't take the batteries out each time you shut the camera off. For this reason, I recommend paying a little more up front and getting lithium ion equivalent AA batteries. They last a long time anyway. Worth the price. Don't need to take them out after turning the camera off.
