Description: This camera is pretty much exactly like the S100 with a few upgrades. Max resolution is 2048x1536. It uses the SmartDisk memory instead of the compact flash cards of the S100. Still does the 2x optical zoom and 3x digital zoom. Includes some great filtering options right on the camera (b/w, sepia, vivid colors etc.) If you're trying to shoot a panoramic view the stitch assist shooting mode is pretty handy.

My personal favourite is the video capabilities... You can shoot a video clip of up to 30 seconds at 640 x 480 VGA quality! But you better have a lot of storage... If you drop the resolution for video (320 x 240 or 160 x 120) you can shoot longer clips (up to 3 minutes.) If you plan on any video at all the 16Meg SD memory the camera comes with is not at all adequate. I got 256M and I'm pretty glad I did.

I did get this camera to work with gphoto however for some unknown reason I can only execute one operation before the camera becomes unresponsive and needs to be power cycled. This hasn't been a huge problem as I ussually just download all the images (gphoto -P) and then clear the memory using the camera's onboard utilities. Also I wasn't able to get it going with my 2.4.17 kernel. This wasn't a huge issue as I needed an upgrade anyway.
