It's huge. 6.5 x 3 inches. (That's 16.5 x 7.6 cm for you foreigners).(smile). That's a big camera . The Power Shot I bought some years ago and still use frequently is only 4 inches x 2.25 inches. Size matters.I Imagine there will be a market one day for people that just want a small camera that doesn't track your location or require an account . But of course it will have to compete with superior image quality required for facebook so we can clearly see the cupcakes aunt Edna baked this morning.

That's why I liked the versatile TX1, (see earlier post) despite its compromises to be very small (for folks in the three countries still using the British Imperial Measures, 3.5 x 2.36 x 1.14) 89 x 60 x 29 mm for us remaining foreigners.
