Maybe I'll just sell the S95 and hold out for a few months then. I hardly ever use the thing...

sell it to him.... and use your 7D more

I was thinking about selling it to fund a pancake.

Just get the pancake.

I just wonder if the S100 is going to replaced soon...

Is it really worth $60-80 to move from the S95 to S100?


Looks like the S100 is available again... Gah... I could go pick it up locally and have it today too.

There's no guarantee--they've skipped years before. S90 and s100 were big leaps over their predecessors. The next (if there is one) will be the s105, and it will only be a slight improvement... much like the s95 was. In other words, not worth the upgrade from s100 to s105.

Yum! I had waffles for breakfast.

But the S95 to S105 would be a worthwhile upgrade.


I think I just realized I don't really have much desire for a point and shoot... I think a cheapo $100powershot would be sufficient for my needs when it comes to a point and shoot.

That's how I feel about micro 4/3 cameras. You might as well buy a p&s.

Not when the s105 would be $100 more than the s100. s100 is currently $300. S105 would be around $430 until the end of the year.

Someone should buy my 1D3 Yea yea yea... I know BIN price is high, but I'm hoping to drive up the bidding price then

m4/3's aren't bad these days but the sensor size really affects isolation of subjects so you can find samples of the Noktor 50mm f0.95 which looks more like f4-f5.6 on a FF sensor.

Wait, seriously? How is that possible? Isn't it on the FF M9 have one of those effects?

Micro 4/3 sensors are extremely tiny and much, much smaller than APS-C sensors. f0.95 on a 35mm sensor gives you insanely shallow DOF and even on APS-C you're getting good isolation but on a m4/3 sensor the you don't get as much of the shallow effect. The OM-D + 75mm f1.8 lens for example produces some nice DOF but compared to say a 135 f2 on a D800 or 5D2/3 the bokeh will be harsher and more busy with more DOF.

M9's just eat up those kinds of lenses though you need a 4 or 8-stop ND just to shoot it wide open during the day

Well S100 prices are only going to keep going down, so I think I'll see the S95 and go a few months without it and see if I really miss it.
