The EZ-Z750 has a series engineering problem where the lens will try  
to pop out when it's in it's case or some other un-zoomable location,  
wreck the motor and destroy your autofocus capability.

The Canon S80 is very nice for consumer compacts. Quite heavy, but  
small enough. The Canon EOS 350D is a very nice DSLR. I have the 300D  
and have been quite happy with it for over a year.
