I set out on a quest to find a small, RAW capable camera to replace/accompany my DSLR on backcountry hikes, bike rides, and ski trips. I love my DSLR, but wanted a pocket sized alternative for the mountains.

I looked long and hard at several P&S cameras. I read reviews, forum threads, and scoured Flickr for sample images. I had fairly specific demands for what I wanted, which eventually narrowed my search. But initially I looked at as many cameras as I could. I was, in effect, catching myself up on several years of camera technology and design. And frankly, it was fascinating research. Cameras today are doing more, and costing, less than ever before. Which means that photographers are doing more (and spending less) than ever before.

Ultimately my specific demands boiled down to this: Get the best image, in the smallest package.

The S95 was the camera that fit those demands.
