Well, I have the manual app and probably have had it for years ... I have to experiment with it.

Hope it works as well with the 12 as it does with the 11 and it gives proper RAW DNGs likewise .

As for handling, no I don`t like phone handling either and the larger MAX versions make it harder even with a square edged back case on to help stop dropping it but lets face it, soapbar compacts like the S90-110 and RX100 series are no more fun to use, the canon G7X/G5X-II are better but it takes a cam like a G5X mk1. LX100-II etc with proper controls, a decent fixed EVF and a grip to dramatically separate camera from phone handling wise

Do you regard the S120 as a "soapbar"?

never used (or even seen) one , had an S90 for years. don`t get me wrong, I liked the S90 a lot but there wasn`t anything there to make it more pleasurable to shoot with than a modern mobile phone (Phones of its time were horrendous for photo quality of course )
