Good time to get a G15 instead…
Oh my GOD! This camera is incredibly ugly, never seen something uglier than that…
High end? You are kidding. Small sensor, useless viewfinder, no swivel screen, lens adapter for the body…
How exciting
I had a g1 in 2001. Incredible how bad this line has become after 12 years.
Nothing here that makes me want to upgrade from my G10. OTOH, if my G10 were stolen or destroyed, I’d buy this in a heartbeat.
Yessir, I suspect the G10 is still competitive with this camera. I’ve had mine for 4 years and it still is a good performer a ISO 80, I also like using it at 1600 for B&W jpegs. If Canon put a bigger sensor in a G body and a 50mm equivalent retractable prime lens. they might get my money. Otherwise, there is no need to upgrade, might as well get an RX100.
With the likes of Sony and Fuji adding larger sensors in their bodies CANON decides they will stay with the same. EVEN NIKON put up a APSC compact! EPIC FAIL. I would get a RIcoh GR, FUji x20, Sony RX100 before I get this!
They already have a large sensor version, the G1X. No update for that yet however.
+1, G1 X is still a good model without any real competition. G16 looks good, but I miss the swivel screens.
EPIC FAIL = not knowing about the G1X.
Typical Canon. Boring, ugly, old technology.
But it will still sell. Mindless Canon fans will buy it simply because it matches their Canon DSLR.
LOL @ Canon
why is canon so insanely resistant to adding ELECTRONIC VIEW FINDERS?
if this camera or their M mirrorless had one I’d have one of each maybe 2 of each!
The tiny optical thing on the Canon G series is useless.
Do you hear us Canon?
