Am considering between Canon S95 and Olympus XZ-1... Any reviews on the two? I know this is XZ-1 thread, comments give may be biased towards XZ-1..
 Added on September 11, 2011, 12:06 amAfter reading review here.. Looks like XZ-1 is the one.. Added on September 11, 2011, 1:33 amI'm concern about the batt life coz I will be using it for my overseas trip.. How many photo on average can it shoot in 1 full charge?

Video is not really my concern. More towards performance, battery life and size.. S95 wins in size.. But lose in manual setting n pic quality.. How does it fit in the jeans pocket (or can it be fit into it)?
Dilemma in choosing between this 2.. Have to decide by tomorrow coz normal weekday no time to shop around.. Trips on coming friday.. Added on September 11, 2011, 2:14 amThe only thing that XZ-1 draws me off is the size and the battery since I will be mainly travelling around.. which the battery issue can be solved by buying one extra batt.. Anyone using extra battery? Ori or 3rd party? Offered RM99 for ori if bundled together with cam.. If no size issue, straight for XZ-1 dy.. lol Thanks turbo10.

QUOTE(turbo10 @ Sep 11 2011, 10:16 PM) i tried too and seems to work...also if wanna reduce dramatically the video focus hunting, i follow a tip to set the focus to center and seems focus hunting almost gone and video looks waaay better.. Sure sure.. Now gonna have a quick learning session b4 my trip to Bangkok n HK this friday.. Must use this great cam to max capabilities.. for portrait, if wanna have blurry background, i zoom to the max and use the biggest appature (112mm/f2.5), even though at longest zoom and biggest appature the image still very sharp. Added on September 11, 2011, 10:18 pm welcome to the club bro..share us your snaps here..  ..  Added on September 12, 2011, 9:31 amWhat case do you all use for this camera? Any recommendation?
