or 10x optical zoom and 5cm macro distance for ex new LUMIX TZ1

I thing also to get Fuji F10 camera cus it takes really great photos outdoors and indoor with low light scenes. It is a little smaller then Lumix and canon, and it got ISO 1600 and really nice noise level.

but it is 7cm macro distance and 3x optical zoom - if it is enough to see the clear or milk trichoms heads ill take it, if not i will get canon or lumix.

I will be thankful for your opinion guys. Maybe someone of you have Fuji F10 and try some macros with it ?

peace.

Hello, I just received the Canon A620 as a gift. It is an excellent camera... No macro shots yet as my plants are still seedlings.
