I don't have any opinion regarding the best version of ImageMagick. 
It competes against my own project. :-)

It is wise to execute its test suite and make sure that it seems to be 
working.  I have encountered versions which exhibit huge problems on 
Solaris type systems.

ImageMagick is continually in flux so it is best to try to stick with 
similar versions as popular Linux distributions in order to improve 
compatability with applications using it, and access to any security 
patches which are posted.
