After owning a series of P&S cameras of which the S90 was the latest, I recently picked up an a6000 for something more flexible and capable of challenging shots. Although this'll be my primary camera I'd like to keep a secondary camera that is more pocketable. Overall I was quite happy with my S90, although the G7X seems significantly better in almost every way other than size and weight. As a primary cam I don't think there's any question, G7X all the way. But as a secondary cam, should I keep the S90 until it dies or replace with a G7X? How much pocketability do I lose with the extra 10mm of depth?

Hi,

A small sensor camera doesn't make any sense anymore. Smartphones are much better today so I recommend something like the G7X. If you worry about its size you can also look at the G9X.
