Canon powershot G1X

[ADY 554D]

anyone one own one ?whats your opinion on it?
cheers ady

 

[JJ!]

No doubt a great bit of kit but the following steers me away:

Size - its massive for what is a high end compact
Compact system cameras are more versitile and smaller
Optical view finder may as well not be there - does not actually show what your shooting most of the time (same prob as most G series)
If you want a high end compact then I would go for a S100 or LX5

Thats my opinions on it anyway!!
