I was planning to buy the Konica Z6 but after much consideration settled for the Canon S2.
Advantage of both Canon S2 and Konica Z6.
- 12X Optical Zoom.
- Standard AA Batteries.
- Standard SD Memory.
- Many SLR like features and finer controls.
Canon S2 Advantage:
- Better image quality as per web reviews.
- LCD can rotates around which provides flexibility.
- Super Macro mode to click real closeups.
- Looks better.
Konica Z6 Advantage:
- 6 Megapixel vs Canon S2 which is 5 Megapixel.
- Cheaper by US$100.
- A bit ligher than S2.
I have been using the Canon S2 for a week now, here is what I didn’t like about it.
- Bulky and a bit heavy as compared to my older point and click.
- You tend to press the menu button by mistake while taking a photo.

Hi,
I am in the R&D phase of buying a new camera. S12 IS is on my list. Looking at the spec’s, the camera is loaded with features. Could you give me a quick feedback on the battery consumption of the model?
Regards,
Amit
S2 battery life is quite good, you can get 200-300 shots if you don’t use flash much.. more if you use the LCD with care.
I am intrested in new Canon S2IS (even though withdrawn by the company).
