Pros: Ergonomic, usable images even at high ISO noise is acceptable, 360 ° rotatable display

Cons: optical viewfinder unusable, making slow fire and not focusing at short distances, consumes a lot of battery

Opinion: camera for every day for those who love to travel or carry a camera not too heavy or bulky, the images are perfect I think is comparable to an entry level SLR, it operates at high ISO noise well and generated files are not very incisive but perfectly workable in post, 360 ° rotatable display allows shooting from as many points without any problems, well-distributed commands and functions appropriate to the product. The cons? The optical viewfinder is not unusable by any information on the shoot and it is unclear where the camera focuses on, the battery does not guarantee a high number of shots (agrees to buy spare a few), the focus is not very fast and the minimum distance the focus is mostly up high (almost a meter minimum distance). I do not know whether or not to advise definitely recommended for generated images but there are 2-3 things you might not like ... I hope to try the markII

Pros: image quality, plenty of features, versatility, swivel screen

Cons: autofocus, minimum distance of focus, viewfinder

Opinion: Worthy replacement for a DSLR, does not regret the big sister for image quality and customization of the shot. Around the city it is very comfortable, in a moment put it into the bag even if it is very large! RNI are two major defects, slow focus and distance of focus: a maximum focal length with the macro we are active on 90 cm ... a bit 'too! Focusing in itself is not a problem because if you pretend to take pictures with this sports car you buy wrong, but on rare occasions it is slow even with slow or static subjects. The viewfinder is pretty useless, too bad!

Pros: quality at high ISO, great flash, ergonomics, multi-angle monitor, ring over / under exposure separate stabilizer ...

Cons: Autofocus sometimes inaccurate, objective dim, macro does not exist, the viewfinder useless

Opinion: I used this machine for a few months and was immediately impressed by the quality of the sensor ..... strong and comfortable to wear in the mountains and on every occasion .... the controls are generously sized .... I took pictures at night freehand and yield at high ISO really cool .... the stabilizer works well allows sharp shots up to 1/8 second ... raw files are quite malleable but produces excellent jpeg and then use them just ... .when I do not have the opportunity to bring a camera I rely safely on the Canon G1X and I've never been disappointed .....

Pros: Quality and robustness of the machine body, raw images to 14-bit, swivel screen, aperture f2.8 at minimum focus, high compactness

Cons: Viewfinder unusable, macro mode insufficient diaphragm with low luminosities at maximum focal

Opinion: I was looking for the best compact-bridge on the market to be attached to my SLR el `I found it in CANON G1X, a reflex of the fact of limited size, with high quality raw files and jpeg products, robust and easily transportable in a baby carrier. Presence of dials and manual parameter settings as analog SLRs of yore. The compact that every photographer should own. By now we have become inseparable and my reflex is often left at home.

Pros: It 'true that a digital Bridge that embodies the mission of uniting some of the features of an SLR with those of portability of a semi-compact. Like all the series PowerShot G-rings are multiple commands that allow you to give up and go under the automatic functions of creative manual or semi-automatic obtaining full control of the functions that can be found in a Reflex.rnPer those wishing to deepen l ' Bridge argument here is a mini-guide. : Rnhttp :/ / www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=13086rnI G1-X controls are intuitive-rational, excellent dynamic range and color. With the use of the new sensor 4/3 the dimensions are now 18.7x14.0mm with 14.4 MP ... G15 with respect to a sensor 1/1.8 "or 7.4x5.6mm and 12MP .... compared to a sesnsore APS-c has dolo a 20% surface less. sensor to 4:3 compared to the classic 1 / 1.8 "translates into a reduction of the noise very obvious .. more or less the noise that has the g15 200 iso is comparable to the one offering the G1 X to nearly 800 iso. The practical ADJUSTABLE LCDand / tilting and socket for an external flash (I recommend the 270 ex-adjustable and space-saving). External Flash Sync. 1/250 sec. . A good investment for those who practice underwater photography using the dedicated Canon Waterproof Case (40m) WP-DC44 or third parti.rnSimpatica the idea of ??integrating a digital ND filter of 3 stop.rnTra options on how to count possamo High Dynamic Range shooting: you are scanning multiple exposures of the same scene and merges them to obtain images with details in shadow areas or areas luminose.rn Among the accessories are: rn-Lens Hood LH-DC70rn Filter Adapter FA- DC58C-rn-58mm filter Canon 58mm ... Circular Polarizing PL-C B, Neutral Density ND4X-L and L-ND8X, protective, UV

Cons: Battery life less than that of G15, optical f.2, 8, lost macro function (minimum shooting distance of 20cm 1cm against G15), valid optical viewfinder for shooting in sunny days but undeveloped compared to that of an SLR. He lost the ring of iso. When shooting in RAW you get a cut 4:3, only if you set Raw and jpg you get the 3:2 aspect ratio

Opinion: Its stated mission is to be a digital body light, handy that can accompany us throughout the day. It may be the first real approach to digital photography where the photographer can range from a fully automatic control than opting for creative thought-recovery programs manual and semi-automatic.
