The Best for IQ in a Relatively Compact Camera

Want high end DSLR image quality in a relatively compact camera? This is about as close as you can come. Pixel peeping yields stunning results. I liked it so well I bought two. Build quality and features are excellent. A very likeable camera. Be sure to get the leaf opening lens cap and install it AFTER removing the outer lens ring.Read full review

Best Not Dslr

Excellent camera. the best non-dslr on the market with a near dslr sensor. The short comings to this camera are exaggerated and silly nit picking. True the camera has very poor macro capability, but when shooting in manual mode you can get reasonably close to the subject. IQ counts the most and the G1X excels at this. A bargain to be had with a 1.5 inch sensor!Read full review

DSLR Quality In One Hand

It doesn't take long to realize that this is not a point & shoot camera. The weight is substantial, the outer shell is metal and every aspect of this camera says take me along. I had been wanting a G series camera and found this one for sale on Ebay. This one was never abused and frankly, I would estimate that it was purchased, taken on a trip and out away upon return. They are available in this condition for under $300 on Ebay and they will out perform every point & shoot, provide DSLR picture quality, all without having to drag around 30lbs of DSLR gear. The only shortcoming is that the focal range of the lens is limited (you can't zoom into a blemish from 20') but it is more than adequate for family, landscapes, sports and everyday use and even shoots 1080 HD video. This camera lives up to my expectations very well.Read full review

High quality images in a very compact size, great for packing on trips.

Very compact with very good image quality. Great successor to my Canon G 12 with better sharpness and low light performance. .Only disappointment is with the macro mode, wont focus closer then about 11 inches! Read full review

Good Canon

This is from a Nikon guy. Canon makes a better small non-interchangeable lens camera. It has good low-light capabilities & handles well. It's pretty much a complete camera. The video from it is good also.Read full review

Great camera for walkabout shooting. DSLR-like quality with very little weight.

Extra large sensor makes DSLR quality pics. Great zoom lens is very flexible.

My son is thrilled

My 13 year old son wanted a camera that he could use for his passion to take picutres but also to make YouTube videos. He's thoroughly enjoying this product.

Love this camera

I really enjoy this camera. I have this in addition to my DSLR. I like the zoom range and the image quality. I really love the optical viewfinder and the exposure compensation dial. I use this for shooting performances with stage lighting, so the exposure compensation dial is a big plus. I can hide the LCD so it's less conspicuous. The ISO goes up to 12800, but I never use it that high. On the short end of the lens the aperture is f2.8 which is good, but on the long end it goes down to f5.8, which is a little slow for me. It's great for street shooting too, and any family gathering where I don't want to lug around the DSLR with zoom attached.Read full review

just what i was looking for

Item shipped quickly and everything seems good. I was really looking for a canon with professional features that wasn't a DSLR -- this was it!
