You're correct - Movie Digest is definitely a consumer-focused special feature that forces you to shoot in auto mode. For things like family vacations I've found that the compilation at the end is really great, though the feature does drain the battery quite a bit.

I'm still in a tricky situation where I'm considering purchasing a camera that I'm not thrilled about just for this specific feature. I was wondering if a camera from Samsung (which allow you to download apps for your camera) could potentially provide another solution.

The new Panasonic point and shoot cameras (which come with 4K video capabilities) have really cool video features (like rack focus, post-capture focusing, etc), but as far as I know, Canon is the only manufacturer out there that has a feature like Movie Digest...
