I would argue the G15 is quite innovative in so far that is sports a very fast lens with a very useful focal length range. This is a big improvement over its predecessor. It's also smaller and more pocketable.

Whu would you think the AF is the slowest in its class? It's actually very fast, we wrote about it on the operation and performance page.

Well, if the faster lens of the G15 is deemed innovative, rather than evolutionary, then presumably the LX7 is also innovative and yet managed only a 'silver'.

I have looked at other sources for A/F speed like chip.de. Unless I missed it, you mentioned that it had improved by 20-30% over the G12 but I didn't see an actual figure. Did i miss it? The 2.1fps continuous with focus you mention compares with 5 for LX7 and 2.5 for RX100 for example.
