I am REALLY bummed about the "S120 Replacement". Since the hints, I have been hoping every day to come here and find more info, but this definitely doesn't so it for me. I had the Original S90, and since upgraded to the S120 when it came out. The S120 allowed me to mix my two most passionate hobbies - mountain running and photography. Mountain running takes me to places that would typically require multi day hikes with copious amount of gear, but instead I can reach these objectives in hours, and hitting just the right time of day. My trusty S120 comes along often, because I can easily carry it in my running shorts or vest, but at 24mm wide, it allows the opportunity for some nice landscapes. Sure it has its limitations, like sensor noise in particular. But photography is about compromises, and what it always can do for me is get me the shot I need. The combination of RAW in concert with 24mm always allows me to capture images that my iPhone cannot.
I can live with the 80mm at the short end on the new model, as the increased pixel count could surely be cropped to compensate. And even though the lens is a bit slow, I agree that the ability to handle low light should help. But there is just no replacement for 24mm on the wide end. :-\
) so if the G5X is similarly spec'd and not overpriced, it'd make a great little travel companion if it's similar or smaller size.
