It's fast as can be, but portable it isn't. I love the G1X, no doubt, but the responsiveness can not be compared to a good DSLR, not even close. Switching from a G1X to anything from a 40D upwards is like going from a bicycle to a ferrari in terms of speed.

G1X is my carry around camera, I use it for snapshots of the grandkids and landscape. The above lighthouse pic is was edited on my iPad with iPhoto and Snapseed. I downsized and sharpened in PS for the web.

I love the portability of the G11 but find when I use it to photograph my wee grandson who is two often as not I manage to capture the back of his head rather than that fleeting cute expression. But then I find carting thenDSLR and a couple of lenses around a bit tiresome. So roll on a compact that is more responsive than the G1x.

It's fast as can be, but portable it isn't. If the AF speed was there + a few other mostly software issues then the G1X could go a long way to replacing a DSLR, but being a fixed-lens camera it's never going to have quite the same flexibility. Purely on an IQ basis my G1X will be taking over from a soon-to-be-departing 500D + 17-55mm f2.8. Nic - flickr photostream

Purely on an IQ basis my G1X will be taking over from a soon-to-be-departing 500D + 17-55mm f2.8. For me the camera (and associated system) that WILL supersede all of my remaining DSLR gear is the Olympus E-M5. Re: saturation. I can't speak for anyone using the jpeg output but for the RAWs you can just make the images as saturated or un-saturated as you want. The G1X does apply the same jpeg colour profiles as any other Powershot or IXUS camera so I suspect that they will be more saturated by default than the picture styles available on an EOS camera. 28-112mm is quite a bit of range and will more than satisfy most people. If Canon were to upgrade the AF to at least m4/3 levels, then this can be the main camera for most casual users. If Canon eliminates the OVF and improve the AF for the G2X, they'll have another winner on their hands.
