Truly breathtaking... You should seriously consider this if looking at an S95!, 15 Mar 2011

Just to add some perspective to my review; I've been a DSLR user for years, having used many low/medium level SLR's such as Canon 10d/20d/30d/500d/550d's, Nikon D70/D90/D300's, as well as a number of Canon/Nikon/Sony point & shoot cameras, and most recently I bought a Sony NEX-3 - which this camera replaced.

I wanted something smaller than the NEX, with an equally wide lens, good video mode and a decent screen; this camera delivers.

There's no getting around it though; this is a small sensor compact camera, and high ISO performance over ISO 400/800 - depending on use - is questionable. Dynamic range - though extremely impressive compared to pretty much all rival models… Read more

VERY GOOD! ...for a while!, 8 Sep 2010

Quite simply, this is the fastest HDD i've ever had... Worked brilliantly for the first 5 months, but then just stopped working - crucially as I had everything backed up on it between a transfer.

I lost thousands of photos, videos, documents etc...

I appreciate all hard-drives will fail eventually, but after 5 months!?!? Extremely disappointed overall.

Disappointing, 31 Aug 2010

I bought this for something to read over the summer, as a recommended buy for those who read Doing It by Melvin Burgess...

In short; its the most boring book I've ever read.

There's no depth to the characters and there non-existent story line left me half way through wishing I hadn't wasted my money.
