Anywhere bright or outdoors it will kill you as you'll need to be at like f/16 for everything. Remember shallow DoF makes your photos look "professional" compared to the everything in focus P&S photos others will take. You have 2 cameras load 2 film speeds make 400 other.

Fast enough to not use the flash until the sun sets and then enough speed to make even a smallish flash useable. Also sharp and grain free enough to go to 16X20 if you do your job right. Which one to use depends on you palette preference as well as how you local lab is balanced. Shoot a roll of each in similar conditions, give them to whichever lab you plan to use and make up your own mind.
