The Canon G1X seems to me to be a "clunker" with a poor VF, no close-up ability, large and heavy and slow focusing. Why buy it when Micro 4/3rds offers far more?

I bought a Panasonic G3 and yes, it is not much larger or heavier than a G series. Panasonic are, however, building newer Gs larger and heavier defeating the purpose of small. If only the G had a...

Panasonic GX-7, LF-1 and Nikon's P7800 all have accurate EVFs leaving the Canon with a highly inaccurate glass tunnel to roughly guess what you are getting. As I need corrected vision close up, a...

Panasonic G6 with compact 14-140mm zoom. Or, if the G6 is too large the not much bigger than a G series" G3 will do it but it lacks wifi.

If the LF-1's EVF was reasonable quality I would have been tempted. Put the P7800's EVF in the Panny and they would sell like hot cakes. Canon are falling behind with the G15 and G16 with the old...

Quoting the intro to the preview:

For those with a short memory, P-series cameras prior to the P7700 had optical viewfinders. The P7700 got rid of that entirely, but gave users a fully...

The horrible tunnel viewfinder on the Canons is a deal breaker for me. No viewfinder at all is a double deal breaker. The market seems to be shifting to viewfinders at last! Now, lets get a...

The EVF is a quantum leap over Panasonic's weak effort in their new effort. The Nikon ticks nearly all the boxes except one: 24mm at the wide end. I would gladly sacrifice 200mm for wide angle...

The market says small with large sensors. M43 seem to hold the future and the new Panasonic GX7 will meet the demands of most people wanting high end with a largish sensor in a small package. I...

At close to double the price of the G6 which also has a high end EVF and all the features of the GX7 except IBIS it may be awhile before existing Panasonic DSLM owners or prospective purchasers are...

For decades photographers have demanded and been given excellent viewfinders to see what the lens sees or close to with parallax devices. Then along comes the marketing teams to convince us that...

About the same? There is a big difference between the US price at $999 and UK price at £819 ($1253.07 @ US $ = 1.53). Getting on for a 25% premium. In the US, as you probably know, the price...

Deal maker for me when I eventually get one. With far sightedness it is a pain to wear glasses to see a rear screen but with an adjustable dioptre in an EVF it is problem solved. The industry...

As feared, I just checked the UK price and it is £999 ($1,520.00) compared with $999 in the US. Looks like I will have to continue to shop in the good 'ol USA where rip-offs seem to be less brazen...
