I'm looking to buy a pocket back up, and I'm confused on which one of the models I should get.

I'm looking at the Canon S-95 - S100 - S110 - and S120.

What does the group think, which one I should get, and why.

I can't give you a comparative review, but I use an S120 for travel think it's great. Reasonable price, fits in a shirt pocket, takes very good pictures and can shoot Raw or JPEG. I was worried about lacking a viewfinder, but have really found that a minor issue. I have never used the earlier versions, but most of the reviews I saw said the S110 is nearly as good and can be bought for less. I would go with the 120 if your budget allows.

Before you let "the group" spend your money, read some comparisons. Decide what features are important to you. Check the Canon site for refurbished cameras.

I bought an S-100 refurb, just because I saw it at a great price. I think its a fantastic camera and easy to carry. I put in a small belt pouch and don't even feel it there. I believe in the s-110 they went to an F1.8 from the f2.0, and the s120 has wifi.

I have a Canon S95 and think it is great for a very small, excellent camera. The pictures are sharp and well exposed. The S95 has image stabilization and every feature+ for this type of camera.

I picked up a small case that fits on your belt mad by Vanguard. You would swear it is custom designed for this camera it fits so perfectly.
