You 'll have to wait for the next generation of sensors/engines before something improves significantly. If you shoot daylight and need details nothing with such a form factor beats the CCD of the S 95 yet.
There is something in such form factor that beats the S95 quite comfortably, it's called the RX100!
Rubbish! The RX100 is a KNOCK-OFF CLONE of the s95... only with WORSE noise reduction and in inferior processor... If it wasn't for the smearing on of certain details, the best you could say about the RX100 is that it's a pretty good counterfeit. All the other reviewers have noted these things so have a think about this before you troll the Canon forums
I think you have some issues, taking defending some camera company so personally. Seriously. Most of my previous cameras have been Canons. But when another company clearly surpasses them (copying them or not it doesn't matter), then I open my eyes. I suggest you do too.
The RX100 blows the S95 out of the water. It's not even in the same class. Let the viewers go to the imaging-resource compare images page and see for themselves.
I just checked what you are recommending. I was talking about daylight shots - so I compard the House Shots from Image Resource - not the studio high ISO tests.
Pls feel free to do the same and you might discover that the S95 delivers with half of the resolution considerably more and much sharper details from corner to corner.
So I have to agree - Sony is not in the same class as Canon. They are in the class for people who can't afford a Leica but are willing to pay extra for a blue dot on their copied design compact that seems to promise better photographs - at least written on the paper.
Thanks for checking. I had honestly not looked at the house poster pic as it's it's a pick a a poster and I always thought that to be a bad idea. But you're right, the RX100 doesn't look good there. I do not know the reason why, but it is definitely not a representative. You do know they have studio shots at base ISO as well, no? Have a look as well and you'll see what I mean. Dismissing something based on one shot is not something I would do, but then again you do what you want.
I wasn't convinced by Sony neither before and I was one of those people who were advising others to always buy Canon for compacts and ignore Sonys, Samsungs "because they have no photographic pedigree" etc. But things do change and you mustkeep an open mind. You might want to read from people who have had both cameras (S95/S100 and RX100). There are many, many of them commenting ion these pages. They have had first hand experience with both, taking the same pic with both and comparinf under the same conditions. And they all agree on exactly the opposite of what you've concluded: The RX100 is in a different higher class than the S95. Not perfect by any means but still clearly superior in all lighting conditions (expect from shots taken from very close).
OK - agreed. I'd bought a RX 100 without hesitation if I just had considered the specs and the design, but I always wait until there is a reliable number of user feedback over some months.
The S 100 looked like the perfect camera to me - from the paper. After a while users reported lens issues, loss of detail at lower ISO etc.
Now it seems that the RX 100 suffers from sensor dust problems. This was a killer issue for me if it should be a design or construction fault.
Lets wait what the new year will bring. I am sure there is a superior solution comming soon and I'd love to see the zooms in this class starting at 24 or 22 mm.
Some RX100s also suffer from decentered lenses, mine does. Nothing's perfect.
The dust problem you mention, I don't think it's widespread. It's just that people have such high expectations from the RX100 that they seem to check double hard to find imperfections:) Canon's QC is just as bad. My G7 has dust on the sensor and my first 3 SX220s had decentered lenses, they went back. And my G3 had 2-3 stuck pixels too.
I wish you decide correctly for your needs and enjoy it!
