Thanks attilab and Jack. Very helpful information. Jack I'm not surprised about your comments of the SL-3 vs. SL-2. Many times the upgrades leave something to be desired. I wasn't really planning to upgrade to an SL-3 since I don't use the SL-2 any longer. I bought the SL-1 and SL-2 to use as lighter weight walkarounds compared to my heavy Canon gear and a year or so ago I bought Sony RX100 VI's and they are truly walkarounds and will fit into your pocket and make good photos but I will still keep the SL-2.

Thanks again,

Kent

You are welcome. If I am in your position, I would keep the SL2 and skip the SL3. I bought the SL3 because of the buffer depth and surprisingly it keeps & remember the Video and Still settings separate, which makes it easier switching between. Other than that, SL2 is slightly superior in terms of usability and IQ.
