Video Out The S100 comes with a video out jack that allows you to connect the camera to a television set for reviewing images or composing shots (US and Japanese models come set up for NTSC and European models for PAL). An accompanying VC-200 video cable features a USB adapter on the end that connects to the camera, meaning that the S100 uses the same output jack for video and digital connections. The television can be used as a viewfinder in all modes except Stitch Assist.  PowerThe S100 utilizes a Canon NB-1L rechargeable battery pack for power, which is a little disconcerting as it's less convenient than the standard AA batteries (which are readily available in most grocery and drug stores). The good news is that the battery pack uses lithium ion cells, meaning you can recharge it at any time without worrying about permanently reducing its charge capacity. Lithium ion batteries also have the advantage that they don't "self discharge" (lose charge just sitting there) the way the more common NiMH batteries do. Canon estimates that a fully charged battery pack will provide approximately 85 shots with the LCD monitor on and about 270 shots with it off. In Playback mode, Canon estimates that a fully charged battery pack will provide about 50 minutes of playback time. These numbers are fairly consistent with our own measurements shown below. (Due to the odd battery compartment shape and special battery, we weren't able to measure power consumption directly as we normally do. Instead, we timed how long the camera would operate in various modes with a fully-charged battery. An optional AC adapter is available and highly recommended for use during image playback or when downloading captured images to your computer. There's also an Auto Power Off function that can be turned on through the Setup menu and which shuts down the camera automatically after three minutes of inactivity. The table below details power consumption in various operating modes.
