Increased graininess is a problem with pretty much all digital cameras as you turn the speed up, sadly. Depending on what effect you're lookng for, you might take a look at some of the utilities for digital cameras, like Noise Ninja. Sometimes, adding a little blur effect can disguise grain and make the picture look a bit better.
It is a tough call between the two cameras. The Canon looks a good bit better, but the low speed seems like a killer for taiko photos.
