We make no bones about it. The Canon S100 is a superb camera let down slightly by its battery life that although short, will still get you through the day. Besides the minor stamina problem the Canon S100 excels in both photo and video, and is definitely worth a punt.
Pros:
  • For a camera so small, the Powershot S100 takes some cracking photos
  • Considering you can fit the thing in the smallest of pockets it isn't half decent
  • Images are bright, vivid, full of colour and noise-free
  • Great ISO control lets you snap some terrific photos in most lighting conditions.
Cons:
  • The price for a dainty camera capable of taking superb photos and recording high quality video comes at a cost to battery life
  • The Canon Powershot S100's battery life will wane after just a full days shooting.

Take into account the superb handling, impressive image quality – particularly at high ISOs – slick, detailed Full HD video, plus a responsive, accurate GPS system, and you have the recipe for a pretty remarkable camera that you can take anywhere.

Canon PowerShot S100 review

Updating the S95 , the S100 is described by Canon as a "serious compact" and comes in regulation black to prove it. Flat-fronted and pocket sized, with an unobtrusive pop-up flash, it boasts a roughened coating that recalls a DSLR and aids grip in lieu of a proper handgrip.
Pros:
  • Full range of manual controls
  • SLR-feel construction yet pocket sized proportions
Cons:
  • The most expensive compact on test
  • unimpressive battery life

Canon PowerShot S100 GPS compact camera

The PowerShot S100 is an excellent camera delivering image quality which exceeded my expectations. This, combined with superb handing, control and features justifies the S100 as a serious shooter, despite its size. It's certainly expensive, but in the right hands it's money well spent. ?

Canon PowerShot S100 Review: Powerful and Pocket Friendly

While the S100 supersedes the S95 in Canon's high-end digital compact lineup and bears a strong family resemblance to the earlier camera, it represents a fairly substantial upgrade rather than a more measured progression.
Pros:
  • Good stills and video
  • RAW/JPEG options
  • Compact and lightweight
Cons:
  • Modest battery life
  • Pricey
  • Slightly soft default images
