The PowerShot S110 Digital Camera from Canon is an advanced compact digital camera with a 12MP resolution 1/1.7" CMOS sensor, redesigned high speed autofocus, and 3.0" touch screen display. It also shoots Full HD video and RAW files in several aspect ratios. Its 5x optical zoom lens has the 35mm equivalent of a 24-120mm focal length, while the built-in Control Ring allows for easy access to functions and settings. Other than the cameras hardware, the S110 uses various Canon technologies such as Intelligent IS for stabilization, Smart AUTO for easy scene detection, Movie Digest for an automated highlight reel, and built-in Wi-Fi connectivity to print and share photos or videos wirelessly.
The 12.1MP High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor works in tandem with Canon's own DIGIC 5 Image Processor to create the unique Canon HS SYSTEM. With this system, you'll experience excellent autofocus, tracking and high ISO performance, even in low lighting. This means you can shoot using higher shutter speeds, with less of a chance for camera shake, and clearer images as a result. The same is also true when shooting video.
In addition to the HS SYSTEM's fast performance, the S110 also has a redesigned High Speed AF feature that greatly improves the speed of the camera's autofocus. With a short 0.2 sec AF delay, and 0.25 sec shooting time lag, you can capture more fleeting moments that otherwise would have been missed - or a blur. High-Speed Burst HQ allows for a maximum of approximately 10 fps of continuous shooting, while maintaining the camera's full 12MP image resolution.
With its 5x Optical Zoom, the S110's 24-120mm equivalent lens has a bright f/2.0 aperture, which is ideal for low-light conditions or using a shallow depth-of-field for pleasing, defocused background effects. These benefits also translate into the Full HD video captured by the camera, providing the same desirable background effects, and excellent zoom for close-ups of your subject.
On the back of the camera, a 3.0" capacitive touch panel LCD offers easy and intuitive operation with the tap of a finger. The LCD, with Canon's PureColor system, responds to familiar one- and two-finger gestures. Users can spread and pinch to change the magnification in playback, drag two fingers to switch the display, and quickly select camera settings. Of course, you can also adjust the panel's touch sensitivity to your liking. The camera's control ring, located at the base of the lens barrel, can be used in conjunction with the Touch Panel to conveniently access a range of additional actions, including Touch Shutter to capture images by pressing the touch screen rather than the shutter release.
A whole list of additional settings and functions can be adjusted quickly and conveniently using the PowerShot S110's control ring. Located at the base of the lens, the ring can be an easy way to change settings faster than the traditional methods of point-and-shoot cameras. The functions that can be assigned to the control ring vary with each shooting mode, and you can set your preferences quickly using the dedicated ring-function selector button.
The PowerShot S110 has built-in Wi-Fi for wirelessly sharing the images you've captured, wherever you find a wireless hotspot or compatible device. The camera makes it easy to connect directly to both iOS and Android devices, and upload your images via the free Canon CameraWindow app. You can easily post the photos to your favorite social networks in order to update friends and family while you're traveling. Even without a mobile device, you can send images to a PC, share images between Wi-Fi enabled PowerShot cameras, and even print by sending your images to a wireless printer.
Capture stunning Full HD 1080p video, with stereo sound, using the dedicated movie button built into the back of the camera. The full range of optical zoom is available while shooting, and watching your videos afterward is easy by conveniently playing them on an HDTV via the mini-HDMI output. Simply touch the dedicated movie button, embedded in the PowerShot S110's thumb pad, and start recording your 1080p Full HD video.
To keep your photos and videos from blurring or shaking, Intelligent IS automatically chooses from six different modes to provide the best image stabilization for the given situation. Capture clear, sharp images, even in low light conditions, without having to use a tripod. This allows you to focus on framing and capturing your shots, rather than how still you can hold the camera.
- 12.1MP Resolution 1/1.7" CMOS Sensor
- The 12.1MP High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor keeps your images clear even out to the long end of the optical zoom. Having a high-sensitivity 1/1.7" CMOS sensor makes it easier to shoot in low-light, and also provides the ability to crop sections of an image in order to alter the composition after it was captured. You'll also capture great image quality up to the S110's maximum ISO 12800, letting you use higher shutter speeds to capture clearer images with reduced noise - even when shooting video.
- 24-120mm f/2.0-5.9 UA Lens (35mm Equivalent)
- The lens of the S110 has a 24-120mm focal length and f/2.0-5.9 aperture. It uses UA glass elements for greater image quality, and being a UA lens means it has an ultra-high refractive index. It uses molded glass and aspherical lens elements to reduce aberrations, and enhance image quality.
- 3.0" PureColor Touch Screen LCD Display
- The S110 has a bright 3.0" touch panel LCD that not only provides a larger, clearer screen, but also the ability to shoot images by touch. Canon's Touch Shutter technology allows you to release the shutter by holding your finger over the subject you want in focus, and then lift your finger to snap the photo. If you touch the desired subject on the screen an AF box will appear and follow them in the frame. Having a larger screen also helps you compose images better, and provides a wealth of important information about the shot as you capture it via the crisp 461,000-dot color user interface. Canon's PureColor System uses a delta arrangement of dots for better clarity and representation of the images you took, while also making the LCD more durable and able to withstand heavy use in all sorts of conditions.
- High Speed AF & Burst Shooting
- The S110 also has a redesigned High Speed AF feature that greatly improves the speed of the camera's autofocus. With an approximate 0.2 sec AF time, and 0.25 sec shooting time lag, you can capture more fleeting moments that otherwise would have been missed - or a blur. High-Speed Burst HQ allows for a maximum of approximately 10 fps of continuous shooting, while maintaining the camera's full 12MP image resolution.
- HS SYSTEM Technology
- With the HS System, low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlights and shadows. This system is the result of two technologies brought together in PowerShot cameras: a high-sensitivity image sensor to capture more light, and a DIGIC Image Processor to reduce noise and processing time. The CMOS sensor incorporates advanced light reception technology that enhances sensitivity, while the DIGIC Image Processor provides a major boost in noise reduction, expanding the usable ISO range beyond other PowerShots previously released.
- DIGIC 5 Image Processor
- This PowerShot camera houses Canon's DIGIC 5 Image Processor to power its advanced systems and features. This ensures fast and reliable performance without sacrificing battery life. Features such as high-speed Af and continuous shooting, Full HD video capture and Blink Detection are all made possible thanks to its fast processing speed and efficient design.
- Intelligent IS
- To keep your photos and videos from blurring or shaking, Intelligent IS automatically chooses from six different modes to provide the best image stabilization for the given situation. Capture clear, sharp images, even in low lighting conditions, without having to use a tripod. This allows you to focus on framing and capturing your shots, rather than how steady you're holding the camera.
- Full HD 1080p Video with Stereo Sound
- Shoot Full HD 1080p video right from the ELPH 520 HS digital camera. The S119 even comes with the ability to record Linear PCM stereo sound, so you'll capture voices and ambient sounds in natural stereo. No longer limited to still images, with a simple push of the dedicated movie button you quickly switch to HD video mode without entering menus or changing settings.
- Manual Control Ring
- A whole list of settings and functions can be adjusted quickly and conveniently using the PowerShot S110's control ring. Located at the base of the lens, the ring can be an easy way to change settings faster than traditional methods on point-and-shoot cameras. The functions that can be assigned to the control ring vary with each shooting mode, and you can set your preferences quickly using the dedicated ring function selector button. The full list of settings that can be adjusted include focus, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, step zoom, exposure compensation, aspect ratio, i-Contrast, and white balance.
- Multi-Aspect Ratio RAW
- The PowerShot S110 lets you shoot in RAW mode, which records all of the information captured by the sensor without any processing, which gives you great flexibility and creative control when editing your images. The camera also allows you to record in RAW and JPEG formats simultaneously, and now in RAW mode, you can even select among the same aspect ratios as JPEG, including 16:9, 3:2, 4:3, 1:1, and 4:5.
- Smart AUTO
- This digital camera features Smart AUTO: a Canon technology that simplifies the process of capturing images. It will automatically analyze scenes by assessing various factors involving both the subject and background. These scenes are compared using dozens of predefined shooting parameters and the camera makes the optimal adjustments for you. Smart AUTO also incorporates Advanced Subject Detection, which allows the camera to detect and track non-human subjects like animals and vehicles.
- Movie Digest
- When activated, Movie Digest automatically records four seconds before each photo you capture as a separate video, then automatically edits them together into a short movie. The video is captured in 720p high definition, and with the bundled ImageBrowser EX software, you can easily delete any scenes you don't want.

I bought this camera to have with me at all times, mainly during work. I work in construction management and therefor I come around many situations where I need my visual reminders. For this I need good low-light performance. Building sites usually have a lot op dust in the air so flash is awfull. This camera has an excellent low-light performance. It's not like my Canon 5dII but great for a compact. Next to that pleasantly handy are the HDR features and touch screen (point at the auto focus subject on the screen). Wifi is nive but more like a gadget

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I recently purchased this camera to replace my Canon A720is which gave out after 6 years of excellent service. The compact size is perfect as I wanted a camera that I could carry with me in my purse. Although I am still learning all that it can do I am very pleased with the pictures I have already taken.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
This is a very nice shirt pocket camera. I was surprised at how good it was. The old one I broke was about 6 years old and this one is many many times better. I also own a DSLR Nikon D80. Except for the big lens for long range wildlife shots this camera would come close to replacing it.
The only drawbacks are no view finder and hard to hang onto. The body is very slippery and it would be very easy to drop. I plan to stick some rubber tape on the front where my grip hand holds it. These two items are the only reasons I am only giving it 4 stars.
The pictures are better than any I have seen on a camera this small. The learning curve is small.
I like it and just hope I don't let it slip out of my hand and break it.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
One of the only Canon P&S cameras that will do RAW. Largish sensor makes great photos, nearly as good as our DSLR 40D. Focuses and takes better photos in low light than many other P&S.
Primary use is for convenience when the DSLR is just too big/awkward. Travel size.
Didn't think I would like the adjustment ring, but it's actually quite useful. Surpisingly short lag time. Overall, better than I expected.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I travel a lot and love taking photos while going out anywhere, so I was very excited to find a camera the size of a point and shoot with the quality you'd find in DSLR cameras in the same price range. Very easy to use even when shooting outside of auto, and excels in capturing lots of color and taking low-light photos.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
Although I typically use a DSLR, after back surgery I really needed a lighter, yet powerful, alternative for long hikes in the mountains. The S110, while not perfect, is quite configurable, takes good low-light shots, and is pretty fast. Sure, it would be great if the lens had more reach, was faster, and took filters, but then it would be heavier, negating its purpose in the first place. Overall, I think it's a great travel alternative to ten pounds of glass and metal on my back.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I bought the S110 to replace my still-working, but 3-year-old, S90. It appeared that its improved specifications made the upgrade worthwhile. I just returned from a one-week foreign trip on which I took 700 pictures (I left my 5D Mark II at home because of warnings about crime in that country; the S110 attracted zero attention).
Some observations:
• The battery quit before I did one day after I'd taken 251 pictures, 49 with flash. Not bad (though I've never run out of battery in a day with my DSLR).
• Touch screen easily facilitates use of menus and selection of focus point.
• Use of control ring is versatile and much improved.
• Display has an optional level indicator to tell you whether the camera is tilted or straight. This is very useful to me because in the past I would often unintentionally tilt the camera (despite the grid on the display) requiring straightening in post-processing.
• I like to use 16:9 aspect ratio for display on my computer screen. Formerly, that required cropping each picture in post-processing. The S110 has a 16:9 aspect ratio built in (and doesn't fill the memory card with the unused pixels). (It also includes 3:2, 4:3, 1:1, and 4:5 aspects.)
• Focus is fast and accurate. I discarded less than 1% of my shots for being out-of-focus.
• Exposure is generally accurate, even for difficult lighting conditions.
• Zoom range is very useful (5X optical -- 24-120mm equivalent).
• Much improved low-light performance (higher usable ISOs).
• I thought I would use the wi-fi function to send pictures from the camera to my iPad (for back-up storage during a trip and to send a daily photo report to family). However, use of this function is not user-friendly; it's faster and easier to just plug the memory card into the iPad.
• The camera also theoretically gathers GPS data from your smartphone and adds it to the metadata on the camera. I gave up trying to make this function work; I don't really need it, and it was more trouble than it was worth to figure it out.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
This small camera is the best thing since sliced bread! I have a DSLR 5D Mark III and this is a great little camera for manual settings which I'm a big fan of. The f2.0 lens is great for low light and the image quality is very sharp for a small point and shoot. Highly recommend! 50 million = better than a 10 rating out of 1-10! haha!

I use an old Canon 20D SLR 8.2MP and wanted to buy a Point Shoot Camera that has a close range picture quality of what I have, so I research and found S110, it's image quality takes about almost the same as my Canon 20D, not only that some concert venues doesn't allow SLR camera that has interchangable lens, but allow a Canon S110 Point & Shoot Camera. This camera takes good low lights depending where you shot the image with a perfect bounce light or where a good backdrop or where you shoot it at. It also takes great HD Videos from 1920x1080, 1280x720p, & Standard 640x480, the movie is saved as a .MOV. The video can also be played via any TV set that supports A/V out, and comes free with a cable to attach it to. The Camera Shoots in different advance settings like the ones in SLR, with Program, M, A, TV, AV, and a HDR mode too. I happy with my purchase, and I recommend getting a higher SD capacity card to record video, besides 16GB, it wouldn't be enough if you like to shoot in HD video on this Camera. One more thing, when you view your images on the LCD its pretty cool, it has a swipe feature like the one in IPAD, which you move your fingers to move to the next image, and it resizeable too by pinching in smaller to bigger, and if you flip the camera in vertical or horizontal the image your viewing changes too that flip side of the camera.

I bought this camera to have with me at all times, mainly during work. I work in construction management and therefor I come around many situations where I need my visual reminders. For this I need good low-light performance. Building sites usually have a lot op dust in the air so flash is awfull. This camera has an excellent low-light performance. It's not like my Canon 5dII but great for a compact. Next to that pleasantly handy are the HDR features and touch screen (point at the auto focus subject on the screen). Wifi is nive but more like a gadget

A good camera with some problems
In Av or Tv mode only time or aperture are displayed. I want both displayed to decide what I want from the shot. Higher ISO setting seem to make the picture grainier much faster ...Read complete review
In Av or Tv mode only time or aperture are displayed. I want both displayed to decide what I want from the shot. Higher ISO setting seem to make the picture grainier much faster than normal. Function Ring feels very cheap.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I recently purchased this camera to replace my Canon A720is which gave out after 6 years of excellent service. The compact size is perfect as I wanted a camera that I could carry with me in my purse. Although I am still learning all that it can do I am very pleased with the pictures I have already taken.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
This is a very nice shirt pocket camera. I was surprised at how good it was. The old one I broke was about 6 years old and this one is many many times better. I also own a DSLR Nikon D80. Except for the big lens for long range wildlife shots this camera would come close to replacing it.
The only drawbacks are no view finder and hard to hang onto. The body is very slippery and it would be very easy to drop. I plan to stick some rubber tape on the front where my grip hand holds it. These two items are the only reasons I am only giving it 4 stars.
The pictures are better than any I have seen on a camera this small. The learning curve is small.
I like it and just hope I don't let it slip out of my hand and break it.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
One of the only Canon P&S cameras that will do RAW. Largish sensor makes great photos, nearly as good as our DSLR 40D. Focuses and takes better photos in low light than many other P&S.
Primary use is for convenience when the DSLR is just too big/awkward. Travel size.
Didn't think I would like the adjustment ring, but it's actually quite useful. Surpisingly short lag time. Overall, better than I expected.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I travel a lot and love taking photos while going out anywhere, so I was very excited to find a camera the size of a point and shoot with the quality you'd find in DSLR cameras in the same price range. Very easy to use even when shooting outside of auto, and excels in capturing lots of color and taking low-light photos.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
Although I typically use a DSLR, after back surgery I really needed a lighter, yet powerful, alternative for long hikes in the mountains. The S110, while not perfect, is quite configurable, takes good low-light shots, and is pretty fast. Sure, it would be great if the lens had more reach, was faster, and took filters, but then it would be heavier, negating its purpose in the first place. Overall, I think it's a great travel alternative to ten pounds of glass and metal on my back.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
I bought the S110 to replace my still-working, but 3-year-old, S90. It appeared that its improved specifications made the upgrade worthwhile. I just returned from a one-week foreign trip on which I took 700 pictures (I left my 5D Mark II at home because of warnings about crime in that country; the S110 attracted zero attention).
Some observations:
• The battery quit before I did one day after I'd taken 251 pictures, 49 with flash. Not bad (though I've never run out of battery in a day with my DSLR).
• Touch screen easily facilitates use of menus and selection of focus point.
• Use of control ring is versatile and much improved.
• Display has an optional level indicator to tell you whether the camera is tilted or straight. This is very useful to me because in the past I would often unintentionally tilt the camera (despite the grid on the display) requiring straightening in post-processing.
• I like to use 16:9 aspect ratio for display on my computer screen. Formerly, that required cropping each picture in post-processing. The S110 has a 16:9 aspect ratio built in (and doesn't fill the memory card with the unused pixels). (It also includes 3:2, 4:3, 1:1, and 4:5 aspects.)
• Focus is fast and accurate. I discarded less than 1% of my shots for being out-of-focus.
• Exposure is generally accurate, even for difficult lighting conditions.
• Zoom range is very useful (5X optical -- 24-120mm equivalent).
• Much improved low-light performance (higher usable ISOs).
• I thought I would use the wi-fi function to send pictures from the camera to my iPad (for back-up storage during a trip and to send a daily photo report to family). However, use of this function is not user-friendly; it's faster and easier to just plug the memory card into the iPad.
• The camera also theoretically gathers GPS data from your smartphone and adds it to the metadata on the camera. I gave up trying to make this function work; I don't really need it, and it was more trouble than it was worth to figure it out.

Comments about PowerShot S110 Digital Camera (Black):
This small camera is the best thing since sliced bread! I have a DSLR 5D Mark III and this is a great little camera for manual settings which I'm a big fan of. The f2.0 lens is great for low light and the image quality is very sharp for a small point and shoot. Highly recommend! 50 million = better than a 10 rating out of 1-10! haha!
