Think all you want but that isn't the case. You can't make a camera a little smaller without losing the flip-out LCD. And if you are ever needing to set a certain ISO, you'll have the time to set it through the ISO button which gives quick and easy access to it. I'm glas the took it off as it's not anything I would use often. I'd rather use auto ISO and get the shot than be messing with tie ISO dial or use an ISO too low or too high because I had it set on the dial.
And the G15 has notably faster autofocus and a faster aperture than the G1 X.
Makes perfect sense. I can understand some people crying if they miss the flip-out LCD they might have had on an earlier model, but I prefer it this way (G15). The ISO is plenty easy to change. I've stayed away from the G series until now, always keeping a careful eye on each model's new characteristics, but it was never quite enough for me to actually commit to a G...until now. It was the faster AF and faster lens that really sealed the deal for me. Even at high ISO, the IQ is still quite pleasing. I've owned quite a few pocketable digicams over the years, in addition to the DSLRs, but IMO the G15 is truly the first model possessing significant refinements that makes it stand out above all others in it's catagory.
