Hi Jane,
Some key differences between these two cameras:
1. The S6000 lacks a hotshoe, so you can't use an external flash.
2. The S6000 lacks a tilt & swivel LCD screen, though its screen is bigger than the S9000's.
3. The S6000's EVF is slightly lower resolution, but still quite usable.
4. The S6000 lacks the S9000's command dial, which allows you to change aperture and shutter speed without looking at the LCD. This means that on the S6000 you have to change these settings with the four-way control pad on the back of the camera.
5. The S6000 offers ISO settings up to 3200 (the S9000 only goes to ISO 1600), and also features the well-loved F30 CCD, which gets great marks for low noise.
6. The S6000's sensor captures 6MP images compared to the S9000's 9MP, and its sensor is physically smaller (though only slightly). This the combination of much lower MP and a slightly smaller CCD means that the noise levels should be lower on the S6000. On the flip-side, you'll be slightly more limited in terms of printing giant, poster-sized images (but how often do you do that?).
My recommendation between these two, especially for a beginner, is the S6000. It's cheaper, nearly as feature-packed, and better rated by users.
Good luck!
