What Happened to the S100 Short Cut Button?
What Happened to the S100 Short Cut Button?
I'm disappointed to see that Canon has removed the short cut button from the S100, a change from its predecessors the S90 and S95. I use an S90 with a Canon underwater housing primarily while scuba diving. The camera is capable of taking remarkable underwater pictures without a strobe! This is possible by resetting the custom white balance for every change of depth and lighting condition by simply pressing the short cut button and pointing the lens at a white dive slate. How easy that is. In over thirty years of diving and taking uw pictures with various Nikonos and housed cameras with strobes, I've never had as much success as I do now. I normally dive to depths of 60 to 100 feet. The camera's ability to sense low level light and put the colors back in with custom white balance is awsome. Someday I may have to replace the S90 - I can only hope that the next Canon S (S105 ?) camera corrects this omission.
