Camera malfunctioned within 5 months

The camera malfunctioned 5 months from purchase after minimal use, the lens retraction mechanism stopped working and the lens got stuck. There are numerous reports of this on the internet. A great disappointment from a Canon product.

Dont' by Canon, defective camera

Strengths: doesn't matter if the camera doesn't work

Weakness: shutter cover seizes the camera.

Shutter cover have closed. I looked on the internet and hundreds of people have this problem! I sent it in because canon concurred and said they'd fix for free. Then sent me an invoice for 170>00 for a "Cracked LCD" (that wasn't cracked when I sent it in) It's hard to defend a lie from a large company. Service on phone was like "Tough luck" Don't buy this camera.

Great travel camera

I just returned from two weeks in Italy and left the DSLR at home in favor of this point and shoot. It far exceeded my expectations for low light shots inside the Vatican and other churches. The wide aperture can actually provide shallow depth of field. I

Canon PowerShot S100 (Black)

THE GOOD: A great little camera with advanced features, the Canon PowerShot S100 builds on the strengths of its excellent predecessor. THE BAD: As a trade-off for extending the zoom range to 5x the lens aperture narrows very quickly as you zoom out. And theres no improvement over the S95s so-so performance, despite the price increase. THE BOTTOM LINE: The Canon PowerShot S100 is a generally great...

DCRP Review: Canon PowerShot S100

Overall, the PowerShot S100 is a well-designed camera whose best attribute is its image quality. It obviously can't compete with a digital SLR (or mirrorless camera), but it is way better than your typical compact camera. Add in the enthusiast features, special effects, and scene modes, and it's a camera that's well worth considering. The only folks I might sway toward other cameras would be...

Canon PowerShot S100 review at Camera Labs

Canon's PowerShot S100 is a powerful new compact for those who want something smaller than an ILC without compromising on control, but one of the biggest questions is how the quality compares to the previous S95 with the switch from a 10Mpixel CCD to a 12Mpixel CMOS sensor. Find out how it compares to the S95 and other top-end compacts in my Canon S100 review!

Canon PowerShot S100 Review

Canon managed to pack more features into the PowerShot S100 while maintaining the same relative look and feel of their premium pocket digital camera. Higher resolution has lately come at a cost, but Canon raised both the resolution and still image quality while also raising video resolution. The result is a pocket camera that can shoot quality 1080p video while the camera both maintains focus and...
