I was in a similar dilemma some time back. Then I bought the Canon Powershot S110. It's quite decent with 24-120 mm equivalent range and most important - RAW images. I am quite happy with it. Can carry it in my shirt pocket.

apersson850 Obviously it's a good thing More info | I do have a G11. Have perhaps taken a hundred pictures with it, and somewhere between one and two hundred thousand pictures with my DSLR cameras. Anders

Any "point and shoot" photos I take go straight to facebook, so my phone is useful in that regard whereas a point-and-shoot would require downloading, importing into a program to tweak, manually uploading to facebook.... 5D3 | 7D | 85L II | 70-300L | 24-105L | Nifty Fifty | 600EX-RT_______________

Jon_Doh Senior Member More info | Feb 21, 2013 08:24 | #23 I have a Leica V-Lux 4, which is more of a bridge camera than a point an shoot. It produces those lovely Leica colors and frankly with a 24-600 constant 2.8 Leica lens it's spoiled me. I find myself taking it out more and more because of the size/convenience, sharpness and reach of the lens and the beautiful colors it produces. My poor Canon and L lenses just sit in the bag unused and ignored. I use a Kodak Brownie

I don't carry my full lens compliment everywhere or my flash, just select what I think I will require. This. I follow Richards philososphy and have a bag/gear config to match the task at hand. The only time I take just about everything is for wedding work. GEAR LIST

Yno Senior Member 910 posts Likes: 93 Joined Jan 2008 Location: San Jose, California More info | I have a 'sports' type point and shoot that I bought to take kayaking and when I am in the water. It takes pretty good pictures (better than a wet DSLR!) and is small enough to put in my pocket. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
