great forum! i hope i can get some input from folks who have used and compared the cameras i'm interested in. in the spirit of "the best camera is the one you have with you," i'm trying to figure out which to choose for every day carry.
i initially thought that the S95 was the obvious choice, until i came across this article
https://www.photographerslounge.org/f42/canon-powershot-s95-some-thoughts-about-camera-size-525/
and this one
https://www.photographerslounge.org...old-tlrs-candid-street-photography-essay-694/
which make me think that from a features and operation standpoint i would probably enjoy the TL500 the most. however it clearly is larger than the S95 and i'm trying to tell if it is too large for my purposes.
my plan is to use a clip on belt case of some kind, like i currently use for my cell phone. in fact the S95 might fit my cell phone case. it is hard for me to tell from online photos and specs whether carry of the TL500 in this manner would be almost as unobtrusive as the S95, or problematic. unfortunately i can't audition the TL500 locally, but i can handle the NEX, EPL1, and G11 and consider all three larger than ideal.
any thoughts/advice?
