It probably depends on the specific model, as newer cameras would have better protection against self-induced damage to the lens mechanics. But in general I would NOT count on the camera to save...

Again, like I said - focusing aside, from an optical point of view, these shots will NOT be a problem for the G1X. It is perfectly capable of taking high-ISO, fast-shutter images in low light and...

I see absolutely no reason to worry. The much larger sensor on the G1X would allow you to reduce the shutter speed by a good few stops (which will reduce motion blur), and that's even without...

I have to agree. At least from an astronomy point of view, this is incorrect: "the other stars are so fare away, that their movement wasn't enough to change the position on this photo". It's YOU...

At higher ISO the camera would expose for less time, so it wouldn't have been over exposed. Read here for more information on how to correctly (or at least better) use a fill flash in these...

Just a technicality, the photos look very "JPEG-y". I have a G1X so I'm sure they didn't come out like that from the camera, so it either happened when you retouched the photos and saved them...

Like everyone said, a very good capture and a good job of both you and the camera. However I would definitely post-process this image to make it work even better: adjust the colors (there is a...

Well Francis, aren't you the charmer... first of all, the current design is just their prototype and could very well change by the time it hits the shelves. Second, I'm pretty sure that the device...

I imagine having it set on manual focus had a lot to do with the low power consumption. You'd probably have a very difference experience with AF-ing 220 shots.

Did you use an additional lens/filter?

I'm not in the US, but in Israel.As for the meteor, you are probably correct, I also had the same though earlier - it's most likely an airplane flashing by. Still - I like it. :)

I just received my camera a couple of days ago, and it arrived just at the right time...Here are some shots I grabbed last night of the meteor shower. All shots were taken at ISO400, F/2.8 and 60"....

If you get the EOS-M it doesn't mean you have to change lenses -all- the time. You can use it with the general-purpose 18-55mm and perhaps change to a pancake/zoom lens for special occasions. But,...

It sounds like you don't need a particularly small or fast camera. So if size isn't an issue, the G1X is better than the S100 in almost every regard (see exception below). If AF performance doesn't...

How do you expect any sort of advice without telling us what matter to you most and least? Do you care for pocketability? Responsiveness? High-ISO performance? Interchangeable lens? etc.

Looks like very heavy handed HDR-like PP... maybe in Topaz?

The eagle is really a great shot, especially considering the (relatively) slow camera. Good job.The rest of the images I think could really benefit from some post processing, it seems like the...
