I just switched from Panasonic LX5 to Canon S95. It depends on your budget, but I would say S95 could give you one of the best quality pictures among all same size cameras.
Battery lasts a little bit shorter than other cameras.
I know this is an older thread but does anyone have recommendations out of the company's newer offerings?
I think it all depends on how much you want to spend on the digital hd video camera.

I'd look at dpreview. I remember some disappointment early on with the image quality of Canon's X100 - their upgrade to the S95, but don't know if it was resolved. I still think the S95 is one of the best out there -for those who want more control over exposure variables, and who want the advantage of RAW capture in a compact camera.

Are you concerned with weight? I'm only asking because this is the "ultra-light forum". If so, last year on my hike for GA-PA I took my iPhone 4 (the older version) and I am very happy with my photos. I went to Ohio University for photography and I usually use a large DSLR. When considering what kind of camera to bring on the AT I debated long and hard. You can see a few of my pictures I have up in my gallery to assess the quality for yourself. It is a 5 mega pixel and the new iPhone 4 has upgrades made since my version. The bonus would be that you would also have a phone and an mp3 player, if desired. I had at&t and the service was horrible but Verizon gets decent service on the AT. Verizon carries the iPhone 4 at this time. I hope this helped.
