Now that the Canon S100 is thoroughly outclassed by the Sony DSC RX100, when do you think a Canon S105 or other upgrade will be released?

You can find some rumors about dates here: http://www.canonrumors.com/forum/index.php?topic=8438.0 And given that the RX100 costs 40% more than the S100, I'm not sure comparing them makes any real sense.

How do you think the Canon S100 has out classed the Sony RX100. First you and clearly are not taking into account Sony's RX 100 is a much better lens from Carl Ziess for one point. A much bigger sensor with the mega pixels too. I buy the Sony before I'd buy th Canon if price wasn't a factor.... The Sony RX 100 offers much more than the Canon S100, but you do get what you pay for.

that's simply a stupid question. Cost not being a factor, there are a great many Canon cameras that "outclass" anything from Sony.

Better yet, if you swing it, get a used S95 or an S100. Any issue with the S100 return it and get a new one. A slightly larger camera (and better camera) is the Panasonic LX5. Great lens, larger sensor, better video (even if it's not 1080).

I've been waiting for this camera to be released here in the US but after researching it I'm thinking that the SX10IS will be better for photos (in the superzoom group that is). Here's a link for an in depth review (which does not include the RAW feature since it has not been released yet). http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Canon_PowerShot_SX1_IS/

I got Canon SX30is(well,last Nov). I was fairly satisfied except inability of continual shooting(1.3 frame/sec.)picture quality(PQ) not so good but acceptable for 1/2.33 sensor,720 HD video is good, but Sony came out with HX100 30X zoom with rapid shooting,1080 HD and Finepix HS20,now Nikon P500 with 1080 HD, 22.5mm-810mm lens which is due for sale on March 3rd in Japan. I'm tempted,but what do I do with Canon....

I'm trying to decide whether to go with either the 800IS, 850IS, or the Sony DSC-T100. I guess pic quality is the most important, and I usually trust Canon images above all others in this class....but I really love the size and design of the Sony, especially the sliding lens cover which powers it up. Anyone have an opinion?

Answer from Canon support asking release dateThank you for your inquiry. We value you as a Canon customer and appreciate the opportunity to assist you. We are pleased to hear that you are interested in the PowerShot SX210 IS. This great new PowerShot SX210 IS is coming out in mid-March.

I was in the same dilemma when these two products were announced. In the end I bought both and tried out... and finally returned the 4500 and kept the S95. I really liked the better PQ, wider lens, more powerful flash, and better low light performance of S95 over 4500.

has this been added to the SX200IS now? I was looking at side by side comparison to the ZS3 and it showed RAW support for the Canon...

Sorry, this post was really old! But in case you tracked it, how do you like the S200exr? I have the HS10 but am wondering if the latter would have been a better choice for sharper pictures.

"Neither the SX10 nor SX1 will keep up with any decent DSLR in image quality and surely not in low light, they just don't have the image sensor size"Yes, C. Jones, that is a given! If you want the convenience of a P&S; you have to still give up some of the features of a good SLR...at least for now.

I agree. I looked really hard at the S95, would have been happy to spend the extra bucks to get better photos in all conditions. But the 3X zoom was a bummer for me - when I can get just about as good photos with the S8100 with a super slick 10X zoom. Unless you are really a professional photog as need that extra f2.0 lens, I would say bite the bullet and take it back, again.

The S95 (or in my case, the S90) takes far better macro shots than the X100. Focus is much faster and solid. But the X100 takes 'bokeh' shots much better than the little Canon. I'm keeping both as I believe they complement each other rather well.

I am wondering the same thing.I chose the SD4500 over the S95 because it has HD 1920x 1080 Full HD movie and because it has a 10x zoom lens..If anyone can point out why I should have went with the S95 instead please let me know.

Thx everyone for the info. I have to say that I´m still undecided but I guess the SX120 is the only one available right now.

Quite frankly, I don't remember, but I wouldn't let that interfere with buying this amazing camera. And there are a number of books available on the camera including "Photographer's guide to the Sony DSC RX100" by Alexander White that should give you plenty of info. Now my camera of choice when I go out the door. And the best part - it fits in my pocket - with a nice big sensor to take amazing photos. Enjoy!

I've tried both and for me the extra $100 is beyond well worth it. S100 has much better low light performance and overall picture quality(although 110HS is very good). Video looks substantially better to me as well. The S100 is truly at another level in so many aspects. The 110HS is extremely impressive for it's low price and has to be one of the best at that price range but if you have the extra money to spend you won't regret moving to the S100(assuming you don't get the dreaded lens error).
