QUOTE(spiderwick @ Sep 11 2010, 11:16 PM) found out that if u r using fully auto mode of s95..it didn't give you a good photo sigh..thus that means it's better to buy 300hs then... The S95 is not for P&S shooter, more to compliment DSLR users like the G series. The 300HS is better for Auto Mode users. Damn, don't know should get the S95 or the LX5? Soooo hard to decide...

Soooo hard to decide... so meaning if i'm using auto mode only, it's better to get 300hs? coz if i buy s95, my mum wouldn't know how to use it then.. s95 or lx5...depends on whether pocketability is an issue or not lo..n do u want to invest in lens etc..

Here was what Canon's customer service rep replied to me when I emailed them about S95's launch in Malaysia and about warranty if purchase from other country... "Thank you for your interest in our Canon products and as a Canon customer we appreciate the opportunity to assist you. We apologize for the delay in reply. With regards to your inquiry, it is expected to be released sometime by mid November or early December. We would like to seek your understanding here that the warranty only valid at the country of purchase. Please do contact us if there's any further inquiry. Thank you and have a pleasant day ahead."

just wait if u want to have less trouble claiming ur warranty.... my s90 got problem i just send there and 2-3 day fix and can collect back. Sometimes it is not worth risking just be a bit more patient.
