Canon's A710 has an image stabilizing feature that effectively lets you 
shoot in varying light conditions +/-2 f stops. It apparently makes a 
huge difference, letting you set your exposure longer or shorter, and, 
for a mere $400 at your local big box store, you can get one too.

Hmm, Face detection on the F31d with 3x optical zoom, more control over 
your aperture and exposure on the A710, with 6x optical zoom and higher 
resolution... I think the Canon may be cheaper the the Fuji too.
