- Limited zoom range
- Effective but annoying pop-up flash

Building on the success of the S90, the S95’s handling has been improved and there are some useful new features. Image quality is also right up there with the bulkier LX5, but it does lose some flexibility as a result.

The Canon S95 is not designed for a beginner, someone who wants photos of the kids and dog. At first, the controls are confusing, one is never sure where the function you want is located. There are 13 physical controls including two adjustment wheels and some combination settings.
Pros:
- Excellent image quality
- small size
- array of functions
- fast operation
Cons:
- Need to read manual to get the hang of the camera
- Expensive at regular price

"A DSLR in compact camera form."
As a serious amateur photographer, I have searched high and low for a compact camera that I can carry around with me when it is not convenient to lug around a great hulking DSLR. But i've never found anything that can compete with the image quality of my SLR - never found anything previously that...
