I am serious. If you read my original post, the only digital camera that I
found (P&S version) that was acceptable (i.e., minimal shutter lag, low
chromatic aberration, fit in hand, good build) was the Olympus 2100UZ. I
used that for a number of years until I got my Fuji S2. There is a huge
difference. The S2 beats film in many ways, the P&Sers do not.
I am not an incompetent user. With my S2, I do not have to worry about
shake, lag time, etc. Just like my Om1n. I will not shoot on a digcam
where I have to think about its operation maybe screwing up a shot, which is
why I have waited to get a DSLR.
I have many friends who have P7S digcams who have had a ton of problems with
them (blurry, poor colour etc). You know what, I lend them my S2 and with
no instruction they take better pictures.
There is a difference, a big one and until you shoot with a DSLR you cannot
know.

Huh? Cut it in what way? I can't tell if you're serious or joking.
The Canon S-series are very fine P&S cameras, as well as being very
well-made, better than many film cameras. So too are the Oly C-Series
or D-Series cameras. Don't blame good cameras for incompetent usage
by the "photographer".
