Time to read David’s fine comparison of S to S2 again.
When I first read this review years ago, I didn’t want to like the new S as my S2 was only two years old, and I didn’t want to spend another huge amount of money. Reading the review now makes it more enticing, but especially so if you never want to leave CCD

With your preference for CCD you can easily justify the S with this trade in. However, if I were to to this I would trade in my old Pentax 6×7 not my S2.
I would try and sell my S2 on my own. Or use it as a backup. In 4 years of pretty hard use, I never had a glitch with my S2, other than the dimming top display they fixed for free and kindly provided a loaner. So I never lost a shoot. Net I really never needed a backup camera. So if it were me I’d sell. You may feel differently.

Am I helping you here? After your tough winter, you deserve a nice fresh S.
