LOL.

Sorry.

I'm not in this to have the latest and greatest piece of technology.

I just want something that takes nice pictures.

I have lots of nice cameras, but the one I'm missing is a camera with a 1-inch sensor that I can carry around on vacation, hopefully in a pocket. At worst, a small pouch.

For vacation I've been using my Canon S90 and Fujifilm XP50 most recently.

...as usual canon's late to the race, copying the other horses, and still stuck playing catchup !

?

What does it matter if they get it right?

The reason that it matters is that by the time Canon introduces their product, the competition has already/is about to introduce the next iteration of theirs (to wit: the G3X vs the FZ1000). I prefer Canon products because almost all my accessory camera gear is Canon. Many here have the same "prefer Canon" inertia for the same reason. But that only goes so far. I agree with you that getting it right is important but other companies have gotten it right too...sooner and cheaper. This too can't be overlooked.
