Thus, if you've got an Iphone 5, or similar, there's not much of a case to get a basic point and shoot like a Canon Digital Elph, or a Nikon Coolpix.
Stepping up to a slightly larger camera, like your S100, gives you a bigger sensor, better image quality, and better controls. Thus IMHO, for taking pictures with a device you can keep in a jersey, it's either a smartphone, or a higher end compact, with the basic point and shoot just about ready to go the way of the dinosaurs
Well, that's certainly the main plus for a cell phone camera - you always have it with you.
