Anti-shake and Noise Reduction Double Upgrade Canon S95 Evaluation Full Analysis

IT 168? Canon recently released the high-end model S95 of the consumer PowerShot series. As an advanced version of S90, this digital camera has made more powerful adjustments in the aspects of anti-shake and noise reduction, although it can't see much improvement from the parameter table, and retains S90' s highly praised manual control loop and classic and simple design. S95' s inquiry undoubtedly aroused the enthusiasm of many enthusiasts.

Compared with the last S90 released last year, the S95 has a more compact appearance and a more exquisite feel. I believe you are as eager to know as I am. Let's compare the main parameters of the two cameras first, as follows:

From the comparison specification table, the difference between the two cameras is only the appearance size and body weight, and the S95 has the function of 720p HD video. The innovation of S95 lies in better image quality performance under the same specifications. First of all, it is equipped with PowerShot S95 to meet the shooting needs of night scenes or dark scenes. HS system? , that is, crossing? High sensitivity image sensor? Combined with DIGIC 4 image processor, noise can be suppressed at high sensitivity, thus expanding the shooting range and obtaining high-quality images.

In addition, Canon S95 is not only a large aperture digital camera with strong manual ability, but also has more intelligent filter modes: poster mode, nostalgic mode, fisheye effect and miniature landscape mode.

A detailed description of the appearance

From the appearance, Canon S95 is more rounded than S90, and the body panel material has a matte texture. In addition, S95 follows the widely accepted control loop in S90.

There are no bright colors and exquisite details of IXUS series, and there are no small and exquisite models of PowerShot series. The black S95 looks calm and atmospheric. In addition, in use, we found that the control ring at the bottom of the lens has a good sense of control, and the turntable in the top mode is a little stiff, which is difficult to operate with one hand.

Detailed menu description

Following Canon's menu style, the menu operation of S95 is extremely efficient and fast. Through the mode dial, we can quickly choose our favorite shooting mode.

Imaging clarity test

Canon S95 has a high-sensitivity CCD with/kloc-0.0 million pixels. We will follow it to ISO 100 sensitivity gear, and test the resolution target of ISO 12233 under uniform illumination to pay attention to its imaging resolution performance:

Pictured: resolution test standard and 100% slice cutting position indicate wide-angle end;

F 2.0

F 2.8

F 4.0

F 5.6

F 8.0

As a digital camera with a large aperture of F2.0, S95 has the best definition in F2.8 and F4.0, and the resolution of details between the maximum aperture and the minimum aperture at the wide-angle end is also remarkable.

Telephoto:

F 4.9

F 5.6

F 8.0

At the telephoto end, the detail resolution of S95 is good at the third aperture we choose, except that the clarity is affected by the adhesion between lines at the minimum aperture, and the telephoto end clarity of S95 is excellent.

Color and white balance test

Next is the color test. When analyzing the imaging color of the test prototype, we use the test prototype to shoot the X-rite ColorChecker SG color test target at ISO 100 degrees, and then analyze the color, and we can get data such as imaging color error and white balance error. The value of the white balance error in the list is the color temperature error of the medium gray block, and the closer this value is to zero, the better. If this value is positive, it means that the imaging tone is cold, and if it is negative, it is the opposite. In the color error diagram, the squares in the Lab color gamut coordinates represent the ideal color (standard color) of the subject, and the circles represent the imaging color of the camera under test.

The following is a test picture:

Pictured: Canon S95 color saturation error test chart.

Canon S95 has higher saturation in the red area, followed by the green area. The overall color saturation 1 19.3% belongs to the normal test range.

The white balance test results show that the automatic white balance of Canon S95 is 65K warmer, which can be described as excellent performance.

ISO noise test for each document

Canon S95 has a seven-speed sensitivity from ISO 80 to ISO 3200, shoots the same test sample in each speed range, and captures 100% details. The comparison is as follows:

ISO 80

ISO 100

ISO 200

ISO 400

ISO 800

ISO 1600

ISO 3200

After reading the noise test sample of Canon S95, we found that the graininess of this camera, whether in ISO 800 or ISO 3200 gear, is equivalent to that of ordinary household cameras below ISO 800, which can be described as having strong noise control ability.

Anti-noise contrast

By comparing the picture details of the real shot samples at different ISO sensitivities, it is found that the loss of detail level of Canon S95 is more serious in ISO 3200, and the color loss is extremely low, which shows that the camera has a good control over high ISO noise in real shot.

IT 168 evaluation center's viewpoint

After the test, we evaluated Canon S95 as a consumer machine with excellent image quality. S95 also performs well in sharpness rendering, color reproduction and noise control. Next, we summarize the advantages and disadvantages of Canon S95, hoping to help you buy:

Advantages:

1. The control loop is interesting and efficient.

2. Strong noise reduction ability and excellent shooting quality in low light.

3. More filters make shooting more interesting.

Disadvantages:

1. The mode dial is a bit stiff and difficult to operate with one hand.

2.HDR mode requires a completely fixed position (tripod), which makes it difficult to shoot by hand.

3. The flashlight is too difficult.
