Re: Accessory Lenses For G1X?

Regards using the accessory lenses for the G9 on a G1X ...

I'd prepare to be disappointed. It stands to reason that the lens on the G1X has to cover a larger area since the G1X sensor is about 5 times the size of the G9 sensor. Ergo, I doubt the G9's accessory lenses will provide sufficient coverage on the G1X.

Personally, I hope I'm wrong since I'd like to be able put an accessory lens on a G1X in some situations. Why don't you take you G0 lenses to a store where they sell the G1X and give it a try, and let us all know the outcome?
