Cute "Always with you" as a supplement to DSLR

Canon PowerShot S95 Digital Camera (. 10 megapixels, 3x optical zoom, 7.5 cm (2.95 inch) display, image stabilized, Aperture 1: 2.0) (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have the S95 now for 3 days and can already get some experience with it. I must say that I otherwise an EOS 40D with several L-lenses intervened with Raw and also some time already could try an S90 before S95 purchase.

The image quality is for a Compact fine. Over ISO 400 but you should use as a DSLR Pampered only in exceptional cases. Fortunately Auto ISO can now be limited to 400. The sharpening is in JPG very geared to coarse and medium details, which are sometimes almost a bit over-sharpened. The finest details, however, are smeared, so you should deal in greater detail with the same claim Raw, where you can, among other things to have more influence significantly on sharpening and compression.

Positives:

- 2.0 maximum aperture at WW with the IS is (as with the S90) together with the well usable for a higher ISO Compact great for availabe light shooting. The flash can often stay inside.

- Canon has finally the tiresome 3: adopted 2 problem. When RAW + JPG format that is now without much fumbling available. The superfluous part disappears immediately black in the viewfinder. The JPGs are directly 3: 2, the associated Raws have a finished crop rectangle for DPP, which is used when developing in DPP, but also at any time removed (or moved) can be. Especially moving is more useful than originally thought when the cut is something gone wrong.

- The rear control dial is significantly improved and now has fine notches.

- The grip of the housing has been slightly improved.

- Limiting the Auto ISO can be adjusted (from 400 upwards), I would have liked but the lower limit 200.

- The AF face recognition works amazingly well and continuously without pressing the shutter button

- Safer, but not arrow faster AF

- HD Video 720p

- The processing of the case is excellent (except for the rickety lens rotating ring).

- Now two mounting options for the wrist strap available.

Negatives:

- The exposure is unfortunately still * very * abundant, you have to correct -1/3 to -1 stop almost always.

- Raw solo without also recorded JPG is inexplicably still 4: 3, there will be no 3: 2 crop rectangle for DPP with stored.

- The case of the S90 adjustable even under Custom Display gray auxiliary limits of 3: 2 in the viewfinder are omitted useful with Raw solo in 3: 2 to work thus requires so always, in addition to need to record a useless with JPG. In the S90 could be a solution for RAW shooting with the subframe on the display and then create later in DPP once a centrally arranged crop rectangle and pasted into all Raws of shootings.

- The dynamics can also be on Raw with a DSLR by no means keep up with, along with the over-exposure slope makes the S95 a more experienced photographer needed, if you want to have balanced exposed images.

- The gruff flash a still almost the camera out of his hand (using the belt highly recommended!) Skin.

- When using the flash pictures is chosen a strangely warm color temperature when AWB what with / without flash necessarily Raw forces on a shoot with fill flash in the shade during the day and frequent changes, because otherwise you do not subsequently consistently gets the white balance on all shots back.

- The IS is in the macro-region - unlike advertised - not as effective as in telephoto.

- For My Menu is only an unnecessarily restricted set of commands to choose from, which is missing from me frequently used formatting example

- The thumbnail mode is available only in SCN mode, not in Av / Tv / P and it also brings with it a very high ISO.

- The battery life is modest. Again more modest than the S90. Ok, purely physical point of view can not store much energy a battery 21g course. Cheap imitations are unfortunately only with significantly less capacity.

- Unfortunately An HDMI cable is missing from the set, but then it has also other products sad tradition ;-). For a rather useless composite cable is ...

Conclusion:

With the S95 gives a very compact device for Always with have-and still has many of the options of a DSLR. As a complement to a (Canon) DSLR it is almost perfect, especially the Raw workflow when using DPP is identical.
