Powerful little package
I am a professional photographer tired of never having a camera handy for fun family and pet moments. My nephew, an electrical engineer, meanwhile has been taking great shots with an S95. He found that camera after exhaustive research.

A quality compact camera with great features.
Looking for a compact to fit in your jeans or shirt pocket. Where most compacts are too thick, oddly shaped or have a lens that protrudes excessively the Canon S100 fits the pocket perfectly. Sure it could always be smaller but that would be too small.
Pros:
- Superior build quality
- Durable
- Easy to use

Canon PowerShot S100 Review
UPDATED: Canon's S100 is a small, pocket-sized advanced compact that packs a larger than average 1/1.7in sensor, a 24-120mm zoom and full manual control. But with the advanced compact market more competitive than ever can the S100 still cut it a year after its launch?
Pros:
- Front control ring
- small size
- GPS
- image quality
Cons:
- No hotshoe or full flash control
- expensive
- AF-area buried in menu settings
