Best camera which can fit in pockets. S95 vs S100 vs any other?
« on: December 09, 2011, 07:32:59 am »

Hi All,

I am planning to buy a camera to have pictures of my friends and family. Price and zoom is not a matter to me.. I want the best image quality camera which can fit in pockets.. I heard about s95 some time back.. Is it stilll the best camera to buy or there are any other point and shoot cameras. Is there any much difference btw s95 and s100 and also i heard about sony hx9v Does it give better pictures than s95? Kindly suggest me some best cameras

Note : price and zoom is not a matter to me. But i dont want to comprmise on the image quality of my friends or family.

I've just spent some time researching this and have decided, quite easily, on the Leica X1. Clear winner by a landslide for image quality. The certainly have a Leica look about the colour and rich micro contrast detail. Flickr is a really good place to browse.

I don't understand, any compact that fits in a pocket is going to be a compromise on quality.

Fuji X100, Olympus E-P3 with a Panasonic 20mm and Olympus 12mm, Pentax Q, Nikon J1, Fuji X10, Ricoh GR series, Sony Nex... There are plenty of good camera out there.

Samsung NX200 with the 20mm prime or the Nikon J1 10mm lens would be my picks. Either blows the S100 out of the water.

We are very happy with our Panasonic Lumix LX5 for family and general travel photos.
