Has anyone had a go with a canon g1x mk2?

[davidd]

Morning,

I'm after something a little more portable than my 5d.

I've narrowed my choices to..

sony rx100 mk 1 or 2
rioch gr
Canon g1x mk2

I can find lots of people who have used the first two but no one who has the canon. I know it is a bit big but it seems to offer some stuff I'd use, mainly touch screen focusing. It is from what I can gather, a but chubby.


I've discounted the Fuji's (xf1, x20 and x100s)

Any thoughts/comments/recommendations etc?

Not had a go with one, but the CameraStore reviewed it recently. Seem to remember them not being overly impressed.

G16 would be closer to the list of candidates that you have?

It has a smaller sensor than any of them (even the fuji xf which I'm not also thinking about).
