Explain scores

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W350

Snapsort recommends the Canon ELPH 100 HS. This recommendation, however, should be taken with a grain of salt since it doesn't always make sense to compare a compact with a ultra compact.

Canon 100 HS vs Canon 500 HS

Vacations and my students

I am not an expert when it comes to pictures but I like a camera that takes good pictures in low...

One person recommends the Canon 500 HS:

" The Canon 500 HS is better for low light but the Canon 100 HS has a faster shutter."
