Canon Powershot S110 Review

A typical record screen when in Automatic mode. Across the top is the EV compensation factor (+/-0), the white balance (AWB) and the image quality and size (Superfine Large). Across the bottom is the flash mode (automatic), single picture mode and the 188 pictures remaining (yep, there's a 160MB SanDisk card in this one)

Pressing the Menu button once brings up this set of options. Here you can go into Manual record mode, StitchAssist for shooting panoramas or Movie mode.

Manual recording mode screen. Icons across the top are the same as automatic mode. Manual mode isn't a true manual mode, but you can set the white balance and exposure compensation as seen in the next two frames.

White balance presets for Automatic, Sunny, Cloudy, Incandescent, Flourescent and BW (black & white). No manual way of setting the white point though.

Onscreen realtime adjustment for the exposure compensation value.

There are two StitchAssist panorama modes, one for right and another for left which is the direction you will pan your sequence shots. This is the easy (and right) way to aid someone in creating the proper overlap necessary for excellent panoramas.
