You will have to do a comparison between the Canon and Sony cameras you are interested in purchasing. No one can tell you which is the best. That depends upon how you use your camera and what you need it to do for you.

If you are not talking about a point and shoot camera, but a DSLR, look at Canon's and Nikon's. They are really the only pro grade DSLR's out there.

Canon is much more experienced with cameras. Sony does a little with everything.

The Cannon power shot. Why? well because i have one and the pictures come out as clear as a persons vision with 20/20! Its the best. Sony sucks!

a Sony

My camera is not the best. It can't do everything. What it was designed to do it does well. The Sony CyberShot DSC-H2.
Comes with batteries and charger. Lets you adjust shutter speed, aperture or lets you shoot on auto.Makes excellent 8X10s, has 6 megapixels, and 12X optical zoom. Has image stabilizer. 1 sec shot delay, and I love it.Very good on batteries.

Cannon -- Great

Cannon having very sharp lens, and able to take very sharp and accurate pictures, Sony may be good for all rounder and you can get great pictures from tht .

Sony's with the Zeiss lens are probably an edge over the Canon. Canon make better lenses than Sony so a Canon has an edge over a Sony with a Sony lens.

Canon's take a less expensive card.

Both have good longevity repuations.

So, to put it bluntly, the S2 Canon is better than the H2 Sony (Canon lens vs Sony Lens), but the H3 Sony is better than the S3 Canon (Zeiss Lens vs Canon lens).

Then there is also the Kodak series. The Z712 has a Schnider Lens and Schnieder design and is $100 cheaper an both the Sony and Canon.

The Z710 has the same design, but less manal features and 2X less zoom, but it's almost half the price of the Sony and Canon.
