Very good image quality, Slim and lightweight exterior, Easy to use, excellent smart flash feature,
Below average battery life, Lacks ND filter, Poor video functionality
We’ll say it again, the S95 probably will not and should not be the first choice for control-happy advanced photographers. For these photographers, the S95 is easily overshadowed by Panasonic’s excellent LX5, which does just about everything the S95 ca...
Compact, pocketable size, Control ring provides fast access to settings, Very good image and video quality, Easiest advanced camera to grasp for beginners, Fun scene modes for both stills and video,
Disappointing battery life, No raised hand grip, Slow burst mode
The PowerShot S95 is our pick for a "starter" advanced camera or for a camera that you might share with your whole family, due to its compact size and its complementary auto modes and manual controls. It can fit comfortably in a pants pocket, which exp...

Abstract: The S90’s quality, predecessor to the Canon S95 camera that we discussed here, was already at a high level. There were a few features, such as the position of the zoom button, which prevented smooth control of the camera. The Canon PowerShot S95 has im...
Pocketable body with great controls and customisation, 3.8x zoom with bright f2.0 aperture at 28mm, Great quality 3in / 460k screen, Full manual control, RAW files and 720p HD movies.
Slow continuous shooting at full resolution, Can't optically zoom while filming, Panasonic Lumix LX5 better-featured, Quality beaten by mirror-less 'EVIL' compacts.
Canon’s PowerShot S95 may not represent a huge leap forward from its predecessor, but remains an ideal choice for enthusiasts who want a pocket camera without compromising on control and features. Think of it as an IXUS / ELPH for the more demanding c...
