Canon G1 X news roundup…

Cameralabs (Click here) posted a full Canon G1X review: “The Canon PowerShot G1 X is very much a camera of two personalities. On the happy side is superb image quality in a portable body with an excellent articulated screen and flash hotshoe. But on the sad side is a fixed lens with terrible macro and little chance for a shallow depth-of-field, coupled with below-average continuous shooting from a camera that costs the same as many upper entry-level DSLRs and CSCs but lacks their interchangeable lens mounts.“

Canon PowerShot G1X vs Canon EOS 7D in-depth comparison at DPinterface (Click here): “The Canon G1X produces photos with, overall, better out-of-the-camera sharpness but less color saturation and slightly less detail, though the difference isn’t really obvious.“

Canon G1X field report at Luminous Landscape (Click here): “Offerings like the G1X, which are neither fish nor fowl, only serve to underline that Canon seems to have lost some of its mojo.”

Canon G1X review by Ken Rockwell (Click here): “The G1 X is the best compact camera there is for nature and landscape shots.“
