I have the earlier version of your camera, the G1X Mk1. I too thought my images were not up to my expectations. They were a little soft straight out of the camera. However, I have had this conception before with other cameras. I sharpen with PS CS5 and find the results fine. As for your posted images, they look great to me. Fine hair detail, etc. Maybe color saturation is a little weak which should be able to adjust in custom colors. You might look at your cameras custom colors settings to see how it is presently set. I must disagree with your evaluation. Seems you are expecting too much. One of the best things about the G1X MK1 is that it does not have that lens self scratching protective shutter on the end of the lens. That is why I have it rather than another of the G series. G1X MK 2 may not have the removable lens cover, I don't know about that. Enjoy that camera.
