I don't know which camera should I have, between the Nikon Coolpix s8200 and the Powershot S100, if you could give me your opinion i would appreciate it..

[ArtoftheImage]

@maarkuusz22 I'd probably get the Powershot S100. Nikon point and shoot cameras just haven't been as good as the Canons over the years.

Matt, i don't think you should get it -- these cameras always have "minor" updates every 6 months... Just wait for the fujifilm x10

[ArtoftheImage]

@leeh0795 - Yeah, you read my mind. Fuji x10 it is (and a Nikon AW100 to go with it :-)

Seems like very, very small differences between the S95 and S100 to warrant "getting whatever you can for your S95 on ebay" and buying the S100 at the cost of hundreds of dollars. I'll stick with my S95, thanks.

Olympus xz-1 or canon s100?

[SeregaXAPbKOB]

GPS is worthless, unless you have alziemers...I'd reather have it bit smaller!

[Sgomogomo]

yeah, the s100 is a hell of a camera for that small and all those proprieties

[monkeysize]

I may be wrong but I think the CCD in the S95 has better photographic quality than the CMOS in the S100. However the S100 has better video quality because of the CMOS.

[dreamstwice]

So you thought you'd make a video without even knowing how many megapixels the camera has? Pathetic.

I'm waiting for the S105

@justaddwata This is true... I did overlook the FPS. the Actual burst rate for the s100 is 2.9 and the s95 is 1.9, however the s100 has a extra mode giving it 9.6FPS. I'd add this into my consideration but keep in mind, THAT speed (9.6) cannot be shot in RAW format. In addition, forgot to mention that even though the ISO range went up from the s95 3200 to s100 6400, people always forget that the megapixel count has also increased so its pretty much even in low light and quality.

@dw4lubu

An increase in frame rate from 1fps to 9.6fps is phenomenal. More zoom and larger files should not be overlooked either. I will have both in hand in a few days but I think which one to keep will be an easy decision. GPS is more a gimmick to me at this stage.

Indeed. Deal did not last long. I went back after my post here to buy a second one and the deal was restricted to instore pickup only at that point (A select few stores I guess). Now it is not much a deal at all. Did not realize it would be such a short window of opportunity but I guess considering not many even have it in stock any deal is a good deal (and $327 is a great deal)
