S110

[iND]

The best camera is the one you have with you.
That is why I carry my S95 in my pocket all the time
Passed on the upgrade to S100

Any comments on the S110

I know a few of you are S95/100 users



Thank you.

iND, tell me more about your S95. Are you planning on upgrading to the 110? If so, why? I was thinking of getting either the 95 or 100 for my wife, but then I saw the 110. The S110 supposedly has better AF. Would that shine over the S100? Amazon shows about $100 more for the S110 over the 100.

Neuroanatomist also has the S100. Neuro? How are you liking your S100? Does it AF fairly fast?

I would love to eventually get one of these too!

Still using and enjoying the S100. The S95 is in my wife's purse. IMO, there was a big bump from S95 to S100 - CCD to CMOS, wider and longer lens, better ergonomics with the front 'grip' (as opposed to the stick-on Franiac mod for the S90/95).

The S100 to S110 looks very, very incremental. The S100 has decent AF speed for a P&S, could be improved - but it's not going to be the PDAF of a dSLR even with improvement. Plus, they took away the grip?!?

I have no interest in the S110, but I'll keep happily shooting with the S100...unless I get the Sony RX100 at some point.

I just picked up the Sony RX100 for my wife, she loves it. But I use it mostly.

Love the look of the RX100.

I use the Fuji X10. Bit bigger, especially with the hood, but I carry a bag most places so it's not a problem.

I'm loving it more the more I use it.

I like the S95 because of the advanced manual features and the 2.0 aperture.

The S110 would be an upgrade for me because of the advanced burst mode that I am not sure is on the S100.
High-Speed Burst HQ mode allowing for continuous capture of up to 10 frames at 12.1-megapixels

The image quality I get in adequate light rivals my D50.
I don't use the movie mode.

btw: did canon not have a prior model 'powershot s110' (actually an elph?)

I'm right in thinking the aperture is only f/2.0 at the wide end on the canon range?
