Canon PowerShot S100 Review – The Best Compact Camera
Canon PowerShot S100 Review Every once in a blue moon a digital camera saunters across my desk that changes the game at multiple levels, and the Canon PowerShot S100 (9.99) is one of those cameras. For an advanced point-and-shoot, the PowerShot S100 is about as good as you can get, thanks to various improvements Canon made over last year’s PowerShot S95. The S100 was granted a shiny new EOS-inspired 12.1-megapixel CMOS sensor with Canon’s brand new Digic 5 image processing, which means the image capturing hardware has been totally revamped and the S100 can capture up to 8fps in Burst mode at full resolution. Thanks to the new imaging sytstem, HD video has been boosted to 1080p Full HD at 24fps with 720p now at 30fps rather than 24fps. We also get a more generous 5x optical zoom this year compared to the S95?s modest 3.8x optical range, and a wider 24mm lens compared to last year’s 28mm lens, all of this without sacrificing added camera bulk. Canon adorned the PowerShot S100 with front and rear grips for enhanced stability and bathed the S100 in a stealthy matte finish, which gave the camera points on the catwalk as well. Lastly, GPS capability joins the PowerShot S100 with map logging and Map Utility software powered by Google. Other camera manufacturers should fear the Canon PowerShot S100. Its 12-megapixel 1/1.7-inch back-illuminated CMOS sensor was created from the ground up by Canon using EOS technology found in the company’s DSLR lineup. New Digic 5 processing …

Better then G12, seriously? I guess we’ll soon see a G13..

So right now for about $50 more I can get the Sony Alpha NEX5K instead of this one… Which one would be better? I go to alot of concerts to take pictures and record performances of artists at 1080p…. Please someone that knows about this stuff respond please. i need to make up my mind by cyber monday
Should my LX5 feel sad now?
@alfonsogemini I had an NEX5 for 5 months very capable camera especially in low light.Checkout some of my HD samples in my channel.Although not as packable as the poweshot in this review imho a much better camera suited both for beginners and professionals as long as you dont mind carrying a small bag for it (will fit in your pocket with the pancake but not with the standard zoom lens)
@koulis1984 yea I know the NEX5 with standard lens is not as compact but it doesn’t matter to me. I was looking for the better image and video quality. I checked out the sample videos in your channel… thanks alot for the help!
I would love to have this camera. But it’s so hard to find it. Almost every place on the Internet has that is unavailable.
wth gps? what will you use that for lol
I can’t wait for this to be released in the Philippines! Great review mate!

lol, nice review.. when somebody waits for this cam he knows how he is feeling when he says that things.. i also wait a long time for this cam..
just why you can just use 24fps in high res… !?
