Camino
Mozilla power, Mac style
Camino is an open source web browser developed with a focus on providing the best possible experience for Mac OS X users.
The Camino Project has worked to create a browser that is as functional and elegant as the computers it runs on. The Camino web browser is powerful, secure, and ready to meet the needs of all users while remaining simple and elegant in its design.
Camino combines the awesome visual and behavioral experience that has been central to the Macintosh philosophy with the powerful web-browsing capabilities of the Gecko rendering engine.

Camino didn't warn me about an invalid SSL certificate, when Chrome, Firefox and Safari, and even Sunrise did.
Given that a "man in the middle" attack on a SSL certificate is a very real risk, I'd prefer to have the safest browser possible.
[camino 2.0.9, chrome 14, firefox 6, safari 5, mac os 10.5]
(FF message: "The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)")
Camino is still a great browser, but it'd be even better if it supported color management, like the most recent versions of Firefox. You can check for color management support here.
very good, better than firefox (on mac)
2.0 is officially out. I've been using the betas for the past few weeks. I actually find myself preferring Camino now over the other choices.
Note: like many other apps, Camino can be enhanced with scripts.
See macdevcenter for more information.
The scripts can be launched either with the generic script icon in the system menu, or via a button in Camino's toolbar.
Some scripts for Camino are available here:

It would be a good to have the download link to the multilingual version instead of just the english version.
Printing a web page or saving to pdf often doesn't work properly: the first page is mostly empty, and the content is truncated (my test page contains a table with about 100 rows).
Actually, this very page also gets truncated when printed.
