  • Solid build, Impressive high ISO performance, Excellent image quality, Provided with all necessary controls for manual and semimanual modes, The hand grip featured at the front assists in the handling, Impressive HDR mode and DR and shadow correction mode
  • Mediocre continuous burst mode, Focusing speeds could be improved, Expensive
  • When it comes to image quality, G1 X is the perfect camera that will fulfill your need for DSLR cameras. The overall Canon PowerShot G1 X Review shows that the latest from PowerShot series is touted as the biggest competitor for other brand's cameras in s...

  • Large sensor, Good low light performance, Great high ISO performance, High res LCD screen which is usable in sunlit conditions, HDR mode and DR and shadow correction modes are impressive
  • Mediocre continuous burst mode, Very high price, Focus hunting in macro mode
  • While most of the camera manufacturers are getting onto the micro four-thirds, interchangeable lens camera systems bandwagon, Canon is the only brand that has not come out with anything in this segment. In fact a mirrorless ILC was expected from Canon,...

  • Fantastic high-ISO performance; very solid build; vivid yet natural colors; generous feature set.
  • Can't shoot macro; bulky; focusing speeds could be improved; expensive for an advanced compact.
  • If you're after the perfect advanced compact, the PowerShot G1 X isn't it. However, it does produce some breathtaking images--with APS-C-rivaling low-light performance--and has a very solid build. ...

  • Solid build quality; versatile lens; good ISO performance; accessory hot shoe.
  • Bulky exterior; sluggish autofocus; limited focus range; no manual control in video mode.
  • The Canon G1X is a solid camera that is packed to the brim with features at the cost of portability. CONCEALED: You'll find the G1X's mini USB, cable release and mini HDMI port hidden behind a hinged plastic door on the side of the camera. It is a ser...

  • Superb image clarity, Excellent lownoise performance, Excellent image stabilizer, Welldesigned controls
  • Sluggish response, Not able to shoot macro
  • We suspect that some prospective owners of the G1 X are looking for a general purpose, all-in-one performance-orientated camera. But the G1 X is actually anything but. In many ways, it reminds us of a tank: It's big, powerful and steady, but it's also slo...

  • Abstract:  The new Canon PowerShot G1 X is the latest prosumer digital camera to succeed the PowerShot G12. Built upon the same look and feel as its predecessor, you'll find familiar looking controls as well as a slightly larger vari-angle 3-inch LCD screen.However,...
