Thank you all for your insight! Snapsort is great for getting into the details of all of the features and specs.

I have a question about zoom. It seems the better quality cameras all have less zoom. I'm not sure what this means. I know that on my previous two cameras I never used the full zoom capabilities because the photos always ended up grainy. Is zoom like sunscreen, where you can buy a higher number but it's really not going to make any difference in the end?

I'm a little concerned that the Sony RX 100 is too much camera for me - that I won't be able to make use of it's capabilities. As a novice, will I notice or be able to appreciate the difference between it and say the Canon S120? Or between those and the type of camera I have been using?

I really appreciate your time and expertise.

Erin
