Here is my most important experiences:
- The main strength of the G1 X is the image quality. This is advertised with this camera and I can confirm this excellent image quality. I've never had a digital camera that shoots so sharp images. This is evident at the latest when zooming in on the screen. Here come not equal pixel but sharp detail. That's really impressive!
The colors are very natural. Portraits and landscapes, for example, succeed wonderfully.
- The camera is not so small and light that they can be stuck in the inside pocket of his jacket. So you will not take easily to any event. But it is much more compact than a system camera. So you have to think twice before buying, for which occasions to use them. For my purposes in my daily life, it is just right. For snapshots on the tram to the mobile phone is better anyway.
- If you set the control menu on automatic, is operating the camera in the true sense of the word easy. I can press the camera each of my children easily in the hand.
- The video recordings are in HD quality. So you need a fast memory card with a large storage space. The videos are amazing sharp and detailed. You can zoom during filming and the sound quality is OK.
- Shutter lag is yes in principle longer than the analog with the digital cameras. The G1 X has also compared with other digital cameras a relatively long shutter lag. You have to know. What bothers me is the less, because of the kind of photos that I shoot, I do not need a quick trigger. However, if you need a quick trigger, the G1 X should not buy.
Conclusion:
If this camera fits your users behavior, then you will receive with the Canon G1 X is a very valuable for this price camera with sensational picture quality.
I for one am very glad that I bought this camera.
