On paper - it sounded like a WINNER

I have been very happy with mine.  I have a G7X on order -- I do like the concept of having Canon image quality from a largish sensor in a camera I can carry in my pocket, everywhere I go.  But, I expect that I'll prefer the G1X Mark II when I go out to do "real" shooting.

As for the RX100 and the RX10, you can have them -- I've got both sitting on my shelf, 100% positively "collecting dust" while I go out with the G1X Mark II, instead.  Here are a few sample shots from my shooting over the summer:

Indoors, outdoors, I've been very satisfied with mine.  I recommend it highly.

For the record, these are all JPEG shots with rather minimal processing -- I usually adjust levels a bit, then crop and resize, then I hit them with a wee bit of unsharp mask.
