Best in Class the Canon S95
James Bond would kill to get his hands on this camera. It is stealthy in size and you can take it to places that you just would not risk having a flashy camera.
If I had to recommend one camera for everyday use, this would be it. While not as sophisticated as the G12 and missing most of its advanced functions and bells and whistles, it shines because of its size. It is about the size of a slim cell phone and it takes amazing low light pictures. It is so good that some of its images I got published on www.istock.com, and they are making me money as we speak. I got to test drive this camera and I recommended that my girlfriend buy it.
It is great for everyday use and it has a fun dial that you can custom set for any function. It even has an HD movie mode. The price is steep, but you are paying for quality and a metal body. Any top level Canon has a great resale value, and some of the cameras in the top range can go up in price once they are out of print. Check out the Canon G10 for reference.
If that is a little too much, then get last year's model. The s90 is last year's model with a slightly inferior video mode. If you do not need video, get the s90. If you want to save even more money, get a refurbished model at your own risk.
