I really can’t help you since I feel both cameras are excellent. You might want to look at Canon Powershot S2 IS. Probably cheaper, 5MP, 12X optical. I own Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H2 and I love the 8X10 photos it takes. The H5 has got to be latest model and probably more megapixels.
The best thing to do is try them both out, if possible. See which one is easier to use, in your opinion, and which one is easier to take full advantage of it’s features. Also, determine what your main wants are, and make sure the camera you choose can do them……for example, “burst mode” pictures, and optical zoom.
I have a Canon. In my opinion, Canon is better than Sony. Many people I know have Canon cameras so I would recommend a Canon.
