Which is a better deal for a camera for me (ie, not to sell):  Canon S110 for $150, Canon G15 for $200, or neither?
I want to be able to take close up pictures; they both have macros, but even their auto goes up to 2".
I also like to take pictures in succession.

As of now I'm not so picky or in a rush so, maybe I should hold out for a better camera for the price?

The S110 is almost as good as the G15 in a smaller body, so it'll probably be a better choice.

I also like to take pictures in succession.
Both will only shoot two pictures per second.

A - you're never gonna buy a camera that way
B - If an S110 for $150 is not good enough of a deal for you then you'll never find a "deal".

What about the nex 3n?

Closest focusing distance (with the kit lens) is 9.8". However, he could buy a dedicated macro lens, although it doesn't seem to be in his budget.

It also shoots at 4fps, so he'd be trading macro for continuous shooting.

Wow!! You really know how to answer q's.  TY. 
I need to figure out which is a great/best camera for me, then what is the best deal I can get on that.

In the meantime
Canon the s110 still be had for $150?
the unadvertised B&H $300 printer rebate deal has the option of adding on certain Canon cameras for another $100 rebate.    The G15 is $300 and the S110 is $250 or so, hence the $150 price.  Not as good as Adorama's deal a few days ago, but almost.

I wouldn't go another $175 for the Nex 3n now and I think I'd like to stay at the P&S level until I learn a bit more.
I currently have an L200 (which is relatively fine for me except for the macro).
Ok, based on your 'B' response I now understand that $150 is a good overall deal, but are there other cameras that I should be looking at?
(TY!!)
