Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Travel CameraBought this camera about a month ago. Goal was to have something smaller and lighter than six pounds of DSLR camera to take on long distance travel trips. But I still wanted DSLR'like capability. This camera fits the bill perfectly. The lens may be a bit soft but unless you are going to print photo's for profit you will like the results. And while the zoom can't compete with a 300 mm telephoto on an APS-C sensor, some of the other special features such as panoramic, night sky and fisheye modes more than make up for it. In the end, after evaluating all my travel photo's, I discovered that this camera covers 85% of all the focal lengths I shot on my trips. I figured, if I really needed, I could get something by cropping the large RAW image if I really wanted something. So yes, I am happy with this little beast. Only recommendations I have are buy more batteries and an extra charger. If you take 600 shots a day you will need 3 or more batteries. Of course, if you turn off some of the features you can extend your battery life. And lastly, CANON, please get my back ordered case out. You said 8 December was when it would ship. We are a bit past that. Once again good machine, I will leave my DSLR home on long trips to far away places!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Body, and build, horrible lens :(I bought this as a compact travel. Currently own a direct competitor with same size sensor in a 23mm non zoom body. Let me say, there is NO comparison in the 23mm of the competitor and this Canon... the Canon's lens is not good. Sorry... come out with a faster lens, perhaps single FOV.... this zoom doesn't work, especially at this price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great picturesBought it just before Christmas and, as promised, have enjoyed excellent photographs from the camera. There are improvements I’d like to see; however, its compact size, rugged case, excellent low light pictures, quick focus make it an easy camera to enjoy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from They need a much better lens!F2.8-f5.6. At 70mm is already f5.6! This is only good for landscape and travel photo. I was very disappointed. At this price, as top moddel for G line, this is all I get?On another note, I dropped this at 3 ft high, nothing broke, just a scratch on the lens barrel. To be fair, this comera takes a beating and keep on taking (photos.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A definite challenger to traditional SLRFirst, to set the bar, I'm a Canon guy for the last 45 years so my review isn't considering competitor products. I travel extensively and have been hauling my 5D (Mkii and then Mkiii, typically with 2-3+ lenses, and am accustomed to near flawless results. However, prior to an Iceland trip this past February with extensive hiking, snowshoeing, and skiing, decided to gamble and trust my memories to the G1X Mkiii. Over the past few years I've bought and immediately retired a variety of other Canon point and shoots (G1X Mkii, G3X, G5X, G7X and more) which didn't perform well enough as my primary camera to even make it to my backpack. Note that the G3X lens is incredible. The G1X Mkiii is as close to perfection as a 'point and shoot' can be when compared to an SLR. The standard modes (auto, P, Av, etc) and other creative modes are robust and the Scene modes are incredibly powerful yielding professional results - they are not gimmick modes. The camera performed for over 3,000 shots in extreme cold and wet even after living in my backpack and coat pocket for weeks. Downsides are few in my opinion but there are always give and takes. The lens has an ok range but the aperture range is limiting. Probably as a result of the incredible EVF, LCD and sensor, the G1X Mkiii eats batteries. Adding to the pain, the battery door is difficult to open in some weather conditions but more importantly, does not latch automatically when closed which is a significant design flaw that could quickly ruin an outing or trip in dusty or wet environments. While considered compact with a lot of power under it's hood, it wouldn't be carried in a shirt or pant pocket. In conclusion, the G1X Mkiii is not a similar solution with a new model number. The camera is unprecedented, worth it's price, and is truly an alternative to a high end SLR for typical travel needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Crippled. Great specs, poor lens quality.Good dynamic range. Good menus and controls but why did canon pair this with a soft lens? It’s complete mush. Returned.
