Simply said the faster camera here is the Canon Powershot SD800 IS and it also have the better image stablization. Remember not to expect mircles the image stablization is not perfect and will still have trouble picking up all types of motion. But this is certainly the best you can get in the price range.

I agree with Joe. The shutter speed on the SD800IS is very fast. Ready to close on this question, or is there anything else we can help you with?
