Canon Powershot Digital

I am looking at buying a Canon PowerShot Digital Camera.?
I have narrowed it down to two camera's. The S5 IS and A650-IS, does anyone have these camera's? I would love suggestions on which one you think is better. I want to use the camera for nature shots and to capture my very animated 4 year old son. Thanks for all of your help!
Hi,
Here are some positives for Canon PowerShot S5:
1) Size and weight; Lightweight and not bulky for my small hands.
2) The Canon LCD display can be set in many positions, with its unique hinging system. You can hold the camera overhead or ground level. You can flip it over for use as a monitor when doing photos or videos of yourself.
3) The multiple shooting modes will appeal to many casual photographers. The movie mode works very well.
4) The S5 uses 4 AA batteries. Many will argue that this is an old-fashioned approach. Not me. I have had run out of juice with lithium ion battery powered cameras. Nothing is more frustrating then a camera that is without power. AA batteries are available worldwide, are relatively inexpensive and relatively lightweight. Again, I consider the use of AA batteries in the S5 to be an advantage and a reason to buy the camera.
5) Very nice face detection.
6) Photo capture responds very fast. It is a huge factor for those people take lots of shots of children who never stop moving...
7) Uses SD cards - cheaper and easier to find than XD.
This camera can be used as a video camera with the zoom and focus all functional. Though most camera can take video, the zoom is not function that makes them not very useful. Very few camera can fully functional as both camera and camcorder. This is the perfect camera to do both. I do not need to buy a camcorder any more.
9) A real lens cap that does not get lost
10) Outstanding customer service via telephone
Be patient with your S5. It really is a fabulous camera if you take the time to get to know it. It truly is worth looking through the instruction manual or checking out a how-to on YouTube.

Good luck!
