The Canon PowerShot S100 is a high-end 12.1 megapixel compact digital camera announced and released in 2011. It was designed as the successor to the Canon PowerShot S95 in the S series of the Canon PowerShot line of cameras.
The S100 is a similar camera to S90 and S95. But several improvements have made in this camera. It has improved noise reduction, white balance and shadow correction. This camera is the first camera to use the CMOS Sensor which gives the camera a higher performance and better light sensivity. The S100 features 1080p video recording in 24 frames per second. It is also the first compact camera in the S series to have this feature.[1]
