Read on to learn about our favorite enthusiast long zoom cameras. But if you can find them cheaper, the S100 or S95 are still good alternatives. Canon made a few changes in its replacement for the popular S100, including much-needed improved autofocus performance, but the image quality hasn't really changed despite a new sensor. And the most welcome new feature, support for wireless uploading, is implemented annoyingly and replaces the S100's geotagging capability. Yes, it's still the smallest camera available in its class, and a lot of people will continue to be attracted by the fact that it has a 5x zoom lens compared with the faster but less zoomy lenses on slightly more expensive models from Panasonic, Samsung, and Olympus. But the photo quality isn't sufficiently better than that of cheaper, full-featured point-and-shoots that cost a lot less. ISO 800-and-lower photos that didn't stand up to scrutiny on a display viewed at 100 percent still look good printed at 13x19. But pickier photographers will likely want to pay more for something like the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 and get unambiguously better photos. You can get usable JPEGs as high as ISO 400 but processing raws delivers better results at all ISO sensitivities, mostly because you can minimize the edge artifacts that way. At ISO 800 images look fine scaled down to about 50 percent; at high sensitivities they're okay for small Web posts or viewing on smaller mobile devices. As with many small-sensor cameras, the in-focus areas of higher-sensitivity shots can look fine, but the out-of-focus areas become seriously mushy because of the necessarily aggressive noise reduction. While the color rendering looks fine overall, I did find daylight white balance a little cooler than I like.http://choijaebonghihome.com/upload/editor/20200912042113.xml The camera's dynamic range is pretty good, with a reasonable amount of recoverable detail in highlights and shadows, though as with its dSLRs, Canon's default color settings push the contrast too much, which results in clipped highlights and shadows in the JPEGs. You can adjust the settings to resolve that, however. Overall, the video quality is fine for typical movies -- kids, pets, vacations, and so on. In bright light there's some highlight clipping but no serious artifacts. In low light the video looks noisy, but it's acceptable and no worse than you see from competing cameras. Performance Editors' note: We recently updated our testing methodology to provide slightly more real-world performance, so the results aren't necessarily comparable with previous testing. Until we're finished refining our procedures we will not be posting comparative performance charts. Although the S110 gains some speed over the S100 for autofocus, its processing remains relatively slow and lags behind a lot of the competition (unfortunately common for Canon's enthusiast compacts). It powers on, focuses, and shoots in about 2.3 seconds, mostly due to the wait for the lens to extend. Time to expose, focus, and shoot in good light runs a fast 0.2 second, rising to an equally good 0.4 second in darker conditions. Like the S100, though, the camera gets bogged down with processing, slowing sequential shot times: 2.1 seconds between shots for JPEG and 2.7 seconds for raw, bumping up to 3 seconds when you need to wait for the flash to recycle. These shot-to-shot times drop a little if you're zoomed in rather than at wide-angle. If you need to use autofocus during continuous shooting you'll get about 0.9 frames per second for JPEG and 0.8fps raw, and that's for a fixed 10 frames. Without autofocus, it rises to about 2fps for JPEG and 1.1fps for raw, and you can obtain a usably large burst run. You have two choices: single-point AF and Face AiAF. I think using the center focus point and recomposing is always the only way to guarantee a focus on the subject, because multipoint autofocus systems usually make the wrong decisions and simply focus on whatever's closest in the scene. Regardless, the majority of point-and-shoot photographers use the latter. But face-detection modes tend to have a lot of false positives in scenes without people -- mistaking facelike objects for faces -- so I think Face AiAF works worse than standard AiAF in some shooting scenarios. The single-point AF works pretty well (despite pulsing a bit in continuous mode when shooting video) and that's what you should be using; the more traditional multipoint doesn't work well at all. Though it has a longer zoom than some of the S110's competitors' lenses, the aperture also narrows very quickly (and it starts out narrower) and you end up needing a lot of light simply to shoot at the longest focal length -- even more than at comparable focal lengths for cheaper cameras. If the high-ISO-sensitivity image quality were a lot better then it might not be so much of a problem. Let's round up its best gems. Let's round up Amazon's best gems.

The S110 is designed to appeal to amateur and enthusiast photographers who want a pocketable camera that also offers good image quality and a finer level of control than most compacts provide.Purchases you make through our links may earn us a commission. Large sensor cameras are quite common now, though those cameras are generally slightly larger and more expensive than the S110. It's practically identical to the one found in the S100, save for the touchscreen operation.https://egrenage.com/images/canon-powershot-s100-digital-elph-manual.pdf Unlike with the recently released Canon EOS M or the Rebel T4i, the menu system on the S110 doesn't particularly facilitate touch operation. In our time shooting with the camera we frequently forgot about the touch functionality. While Canon earns points for making the touchscreen as unobtrusive as possible, in our opinion it isn't of great benefit. It's motorized, with no physical catch to release it when the camera is powered off. That's good, as it prevents the flash from releasing accidentally when you've got it stowed in a bag. The flash has a guide number of 7 meters on the wide end, which is fairly typical for a compact camera. The camera comes with a USB cable (though you've probably already got a mini-USB cable kicking around somewhere), though HDMI cables are sold separately. The antenna isn't great, but it's functional when need be. The biggest issue we found with it was the fact that it requires significant setup time to get each of the features working, usually requiring you to download an app or install a program to receive images and adjust settings. Given the dearth of high-quality WiFi on cameras this is par for the course, but a seamless, smartphone-esque experience should not be expected. It has a capacity of 1050mAh, which works out to around 200 shots per charge by CIPA standards. That's about what we got out of it, but 200 shots only worked out to about two days of heavy use before needing a charge. The camera's image processing took over in most cases, we found, employing effective—though not overbearing—noise reduction to keep the grain down and preserve some details. Overall we were quite impressed, and the S110 lives up to the S-series' reputation of great image quality from a compact camera. Most point-and-shoot cameras make details pop out more by increasing contrast near the edges of your subject. A little of this makes images look better, but the Canon S110 takes it to extreme levels, especially at the wide angle. Otherwise the S110 performed like most other point-and-shoots, with sharp images in the center and very soft details in the corner of the frame. More on how we test sharpness. More on how we test color. Modes like neutral, vivid, sepia, monochrome, and positive film are mostly designed to push color in fun, creative ways. If you're shooting portraits we recommend turning these modes off to get the most accurate color, but otherwise experimenting is definitely encouraged. The chart should be used to judge the relative color shift, not the absolute captured colors. Here is where you'll find Canon's color accent, color swap, and super vivid modes. Super vivid should be self-explanatory, with color swap letting you change one color to another. Color accent is always a popular mode, letting you shoot black and white photos with a single color kept saturated. We found that the automatic white balance struggled under one specific light condition, though it did as well (or better) than the custom white balance under the others. For all intents and purposes that's right on the money. The one area the camera struggled was under incandescent lighting, which is very warm. In that test the camera had a color temperature error of over 2000 kelvin. This isn't out of the ordinary at all, as almost every camera we test produces at least this much error in this test. In the same three lighting conditions we found the S110, when taking a custom white balance, had an average temperature error of less than 200 kelvins. This is pretty good, though with the automatic white balance performing so well, the only time it's really worth it is under warm indoor lighting. Setting a custom white balance is very easy, as you can do it with a single press of the button from this menu.The Canon S110's sensor is not particularly noisy for a point-and-shoot, with noise reaching just 0.67 at ISO 80 with noise reduction on low. It doesn't go up much from there, however, as Canon only allows you to capture shots without noise reduction if you're shooting in RAW (which we don't do for point-and-shoot testing as of this time). More on how we test noise. The high noise reduction setting, in particular, begins to draw down on both noise and detail dramatically beginning at ISO 400. It's not noticeable if you are just posting snapshots to the web, but looking at large prints or full size images on a monitor and most of the fine detail (hair, texture, grass, etc.) is gone by ISO 1600, with ISO 12800 looking like it was taken in a sauna. You also have access to an auto ISO function that lets the camera decide, with the ability to set caps on just how high the auto ISO is allowed to go. We found little evidence of lateral fringing in the corners of most of our resolution test images, though the images appeared to soften in the same ways. It's likely the camera is merely correcting for the color fringing that usually pops up around high contrast edges, leaving just a slightly defocused edge instead. We found that the 5x optical zoom still showed a 1.42 barrel distortion at the wide end. That shrunk to just a 0.78 barrel distortion at the midpoint of the zoom range, with the telephoto end showing zero distortion according to our testing software. Both it and the Canon G15 were capable of some very sharp, very smooth video in our test labs. Our motion rig, in particular, looked great in bright light, with very little image degradation. More on how CamcorderInfo tests motion. When perfectly still the camera could exceed that, but any movement and the image tended to suffer from increased moire and artifacting, limiting sharpness. More on how CamcorderInfo tests video sharpness. The biggest issue seemed to be the increased noise due to the auto ISO kicking up, which reduced sharpness significantly. We did note that moire was practically nonexistant in low light, however. We found it was able to produce an image reaching 50 IRE on a waveform monitor (a standard broadcast measure of brightness) with a target illuminated to just 4 lux of light. That's territory typically reserved for DSLRs with much larger image sensors, and it's quite impressive given how compact the S110 is. Despite all this, the S110 is actually very simple to operate. Its menu and controls are precisely the same as Canon's cheapest compact cameras and anyone who has used a basic point-and-shoot should be able to pick up the S110 in no time at all. The full automatic mode just requires the user to select if they want a self-timer, if they want to shoot continuously, and what size and image quality level the shots will be saved as. The camera has two main control dials, one around the lens and one on the back that also functions as a four-way directional pad. The ring dial is fantastic, as it has been on all the recent S-series cameras, while the control dial has been tightened up just a bit to prevent errant adjustments. We found in our testing that leaving these modes off yielded the best color accuracy, but each is useful in its own right. The actual main menu is devoid of these basic shooting settings, and is mostly centered around system settings and basic setup functions. It's not as quick as making changes with the function menu, but it lets you customize a bit. The quick start guide is more extensive than we usually see with other cameras, largely because of the S110's built-in WiFi antenna. The added connectivity can require some troubleshooting, so Canon included a slightly beefier guide than normal to get you on your way. The S110 is no different than previous S-series cameras in this regard, with a tightly designed body that easily slips in and out of a pocket or small bag. While the end result is more or less the same, we're disappointed to see that some of the rubber touches on the S100 have been eliminated. The small rubber inlay on the front of the S100 is no longer there, while the rear rubber thumb rest has also been replaced by a small plastic ridge to push against. The matte paint also helps prevent finger prints, though the top plate is still a glossy plastic that can get marked up. Overall we found the camera to be adequate for shooting during the day, and it's easy enough to stow in your jacket pocket and forget about when you don't need it. The camera has two main control dials, one around the lens and one on the back that also functions as a four-way directional pad. The ring dial is fantastic, as it has been on all the recent S-series cameras, while the control dial has been tightened up just a bit to prevent errant adjustments. The other buttons on the S110 are easy to operate, but they're crowded around the rear control dial. While this placement leaves room for the thumb rest, their location makes the camera slightly harder to operate in dim lighting. It's practically identical to the one found in the S100, save for the touchscreen operation. While Canon earns points for making the touchscreen as unobtrusive as possible, in our opinion it isn't of great benefit. The dial also has a custom mode, a dedicated video setting (though recording can be started in any mode, at any time with the dedicated REC button), and Canon's movie digest mode. Most of the controls can be adjusted using the rear control dial, with the front control ring offering customizable control as well. The manual focus can use the front control ring, but it works mostly as a step focus and isn't terribly responsive. The normal mode will allow you to focus as close as two inches, while the macro mode shrinks that range to 1.2 inches. It's useful if you want to use the S110 for macro shots of jewelry or small details, but otherwise you can just stick to the normal AF. You can shoot at four resolutions in any given aspect ratio, with the largest being the 4:3 12-megapixel. They scale down from there, with the other aspect ratios merely being cropped versions of the 4:3 shots. The S110 includes the same ring, with the ring controlling different functions depending on what shooting mode you're in. You can choose to let it remain like that, or assign it specific functions such as white balance, exposure compensation, ISO, or one of several others. As withe earlier S-series cameras, the S110 isn't the best option for action shooters. Still, the camera does offer some speed when called upon, and a host of self-timer modes give it some flexibility when taking snapshots and group portraits. The first are its drive settings, which operate in just about every shooting mode. The other is a special high-speed burst most, which Canon lists as being capable of capturing up to 10 frames in a single second. The special high-speed burst mode is nice, but having that speed limited to one select mode—instead of say, manual or aperture-priority modes—makes it less useful than it could've been. It won't go beyond ten frames, though, and it takes a few seconds for the camera to catch up and write those shots to the memory card. That's also with exposure and autofocus locked on the first frame, which really limits the camera's ability to capture action, as your moment can easily pass by without getting a proper shot. The S110 does offer a continuous shooting mode that maintains continuous autofocus, but it only fires about one shot per second. The custom mode lets you capture up to 10 shots after a user-specified delay of up to 30 seconds. The manual focus can use the front control ring, but it works mostly as a step focus and isn't terribly responsive. The normal mode will allow you to focus as close as two inches, while the macro mode shrinks that range to 1.2 inches. It's useful if you want to use the S110 for macro shots of jewelry or small details, but otherwise you can just stick to the normal AF. While the GPS that found its way into the S100 is long gone, the S110 now features both built-in WiFi and a touchscreen LCD. Neither is particularly convincing as a photographic feature, but they're nice extras to have when you need them. The WiFi is the more useful of the two, but significant setup time makes it a hassle when you're first starting out. The camera records videos using H.264 compression, kept in a.MOV container in the same folder as captured still images. When shooting in full HD you can record video for up to 29 minutes and 39 seconds before filling up an 8GB card.You can set shutter speed and aperture in the manual mode before beginning a recording, but there's no guarantee the exposure settings won't change as soon as you begin recording. You can adjust exposure compensation, but only to adjust brightness in the shot. This lets you capture some creative shots on video, as just about any digital effect or color mode you can apply to a still image can be applied to video capture. The lens is engaged with the same zoom toggle that you normally use, and the full 5x optical zoom range can be used when capturing a video. Our biggest issue here would be that you can't really force the autofocus to pull in or our on a subject, but rather you have to wait for the camera to decide to adjust focus. The only option that even affects audio in the menu is the wind cut filter, with no control over levels available. While the video quality on the S110 is quite good, it's clear Canon didn't intend it for use beyond a few small clips when on the go. With so much success it's clear why Canon hasn't changed the formula much in three years. The PowerShot S110 is the third update since the S90, and it looks almost exactly like its predecessors with touch control and wireless connectivity being the only real additions over last year's PowerShot S100. Sure the Canon SX260, Rebel T4i, and S110 are solid cameras that offer competitive performance, but they're really just meager evolutionary updates over the SX230, Rebel T3i, and S100. That those older models offer equivalent performance and are generally available at a discount should give any buyer pause when considering a new Canon these days. If you prefer the hands-on approach, you can still shoot in RAW and take full control of manual settings, utilizing the camera's front and back control rings to adjust a whole host of options on the fly. It's a great package—just like it was when the S100 arrived on the scene with most of the same features a year ago. A touchscreen display and built-in WiFi are nice, but they're hardly revolutionary. It's as simple as that. If you're totally in love with touchscreen technology or you think WiFi will really be a benefit to how you shoot, then by all means go for the S110.If you’ve found different results in your own research, email us and we’ll compare notes.

Canon S110 will satisfy most of your needs, but if you are looking for a camera that is even better suited to Street Photography, we recommend you to check the Alternative cameras at the bottom of this page. Read our detailed Canon S110 Review Live-view Live view lets you take photos without using the viewfinder which makes you less obstrusive and this works very well during street photography where you don't want to get people's attention. Face-Detection Focusing Face detection focusing mode is very helpful in the street scenes where you focus on a face, since you can concentrate on framing and other adjustments while the camera handles the focus for you. Image Stabilization Image stabilization reduces the effects of camera shake at long exposures and long focal lengths in street photography thus ensuring sharper photos. Fast Lens at Wide: f2.00 Wideangle is used more common then the tele angle in street photography. A larger aperture will give you extra shutter speed without boosting the ISO in order to reduce blur in low light conditions which is a common scene in street photography. 24 mm - Good Wide Angle Coverage Having a good wide angle coverage becomes very important in street photography. RAW shooting capability RAW files contains much more color information compared to JPEGs, and gives you more room for post processing without significant quality loss. They provide wider dynamic range and option to recover shadow and highlight clipping to some degree. Small Body Small body of Canon S110 will get less attention from the people in streets and give you an amateur look, which is indeed an advantage for street photography.
