Hello Everybody,
Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer...
I am in the market for a small point and shoot...
The Budget is $500 including tax.
I dont want to carry a mirror less camera and lenses so decide to buy a decent point and shoot.
I would like to do some timelapse and some macro...This has to be something I need to fit in my pocket and not worry abt carrying.

At this time I am looking at canon s120 ....
Would like to hear your input in this.
Thanks in advance.
Yeshwanth

I have the older S95. Love the manual controls (which is key for concerts).

Cons:
- I don't seem to have an intervalometer, but I don't use this camera for that
- It's sloooow.... meaning it's not SLR fast
- It's ISO capability is no better than my D80

Could have solved at least 2/3 cons with more $$$, but it does the job it was meant for.
