I have a Canon point-and-shoot Powershot s95 which I have used for years. As you have probably noticed, as I have, nobody uses point-and-shoots anymore. My explanation is that most people don't know anything about photography, don't know the difference between a phone that takes pictures and a camera, and are so addicted to posting their images online that the use of a phone for pictures is the obvious choice.
I couldn't care less what people think if I'm pulling out my little s95 to take pictures when every one else is holding up a stupid phone. But my wife's embarassment with my carrying a camera to important events, along with the knowledge that these phones are catching up every year with cameras in terms of quality is causing me to pause yet again and reassess the continued use of my s95.
I tried to compare specs but I'm not sure what I should be looking at most closely. Can someone take a look at this link for the s95 and tell me if it is still preferable to the iphone 6? That's the version my wife has.
Thanks!
