The S9600 is obviously the better specified camera, but it's too large and too heavy for me to carry on a daily basis in my backpack. I've always carried a camera with me even if it was a small compact, I was looking for something to replace my Ricoh RR30. The S5700 fits the bill for me for the sort of photography I'm interested in. I have a friend who bought the Nikon D80, I think he's taken it out once and shot a half a dozen images because it's too bulky to carry around with him. So it sits there waiting for him to take it on a dedicated photography shoot. What a waste of money.

Thats why I am going to keep hold of my DX6490 as its easier to carry round. However I am now getting into photography in a more professional sense and feel the S9600 fits my needs. Photo shoots for bands and also at gigs.
Attached are a couple from a shoot taken on my DX6490
