Samsung PRO815, opinions?

Hi,

Thinking of getting a new camera, due mainly to a part-time job at the Brighton Centre and Brighton Dome, where bands play.

I currently have the Fuji S5600. However the aperture on it only goes to f/3.2 and on the Samsung it's f/2.2. I also like how it has the zoom ring on the lens as opposed to it being electronic.

The focus is also an advantage to me, as I have gotten used to manual focus lately due to my film SLR.

I have managed to find the Samsung for £250.

If anybody could give their opinions on the camera, or any alternatives that they may also think will be worthwhile to me, then I would be very appreciative. Bearing in mind that the aperture needs to be wide.

Thanks, Jarvis
