Which Is Better? Fujifilm Finepix S8000FD Or Fujifilm S1000FD?

[Loqo]

Okay so am interested in taking photographs and already mentioned I wanted to by a camera in the 'Pictures' thread. I have been looking through cameras and have been looking at reviews and I have came to these two. They are both priced at £150 and I dont know which one is better. I am 90% certain that it is going to be one of these two cameras that I will be purchasing, just which one. Any help is appreciated and +Rep will be given out. Here is where I found them. http://www.currys.co.uk:80/martprd/store/cur_page.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@0269259286.121889101 2@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccdhadeelkihmdjcflgceggdhhmdgmi.0&page=ProductList&category_oid=-33706&fm=10&sm=0&tm=0&show_all=true#(any):(any):(any):0:675:PageNo_8:Sor tOrder_DOWN

I say the 8000 for the optical zoom.

Cant edit - Looks like I might go for the S8000FD, unless anyone has a reason why the S1000FD is better. - Peter
