Hey /p/. I want to get a really cheap, practical digicam for christmas. Just something to use when I'm out with friends, or whatever. I'm not looking for anything expensive, or unnesicary. I was thinking of this http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926INGFS10078467&c

Or this

Which one would be better for me?

I vote for the HP. Greater optical zoom (you can never have too much optical zoom), better range of shutter speeds, and SD is a better format than xD compatibility-wise. The Fuji has a better range of ISO speeds, but 100 is going to be good enough and 1600 is useless unless you really, really want to be able to take that picture without a tripod or something.

I approve of the OP's cat.
