 ###Other details:###
 EDIT: I assume these are manufacturer-listed details. Please so indicate.
  
 ###For comparison, it is smaller than my iPhone 5 in both height and width, though nearly twice as thick.  ###
 Comment: Good example of when a comparison is not projection, entirely appropriate, and very helpful.
  
 ###The S95 is loaded with everything a serious photographer might want in an ultra-slim, compact camera.. ###
 EDIT: This is projection; you can't speak for every "serious photographer." Maybe "everything I might want."
  
 ###Given that they are no larger than a pin hole, ###
 Edit: pinhole [one word]
  
 ###In addition to the features mentioned above, the S95 has a host of advanced DSLR-style controls aimed at serious photographers who don't always want to lug around a full size DSLR.  ###
 EDIT: the S95 has a host of advanced DSLR-style controls that I believe are aimed at serious photographers [otherwise it's projection]
  
 ### Finally, spaced symmetrically around the wheel are four buttons for menu access, display settings, photo playback, and photo printing via PictBridge.  ###
 Edit: It might help if you provide a brief explanation of what "PictBridge" is.
  
 ###The display button, alternatively, brings up a nine zone grid and simultaneous RGB histogram with addinal on-screen info.###
 EDIT: additional [spelling]
  
 ### I bought this camera in preparation for a cross country trip ###
 Edit: cross-country [with a hyphen]
  
 ### When I first got the camera I couldn't understand what other reviewers were complaining about ###
 EDIT: A variation on our prohibition against projection. Change "other reviewers" to "other reviews that I had read"
  
 ### What I didn't realize till I started taking indoor shots ###
 EDIT: until I started taking
  
 ### It's unfortunate that this feature is not up to par compared to rival cameras.###
 
 EDIT: BGT doesn't allow shootouts – comparisons with products not under review. Please re-phrase to make it clear this is your opinion, e.g., "I don't think this feature compares favorably to those on other cameras I've tried."
