I am confused, are you talking about Canon or Olympus?

I am happy with the G1XII. It has just been named as one of the four recommended cameras by Choice Australia after reviewing over 100 cameras, including Sony RX100M3 and Panasonic LX100.

Both.

With Canon I hate it from the first moment. But it kinda works for me, so I swallow some aspects (I could objectively name) and I rather shoot Canon. It is what it is and it makes its job VERY WELL when you get used to Canon style.

With Olympus back then... Oooh so many great rip-offs! They were just joke. I bought and recommended few cams around yr2000 and it was very bad move. There was not so many so good reviews, so it was harder to decide. Worst cameras ever. Now, they´re much better, but my mood about this brand still persists somehow. Don´t like them, and they maybe get more punishment by not buying their stuff than they deserve...

Now Canon is getting closer by making new machine WORSE in certain, pretty vital aspects, while of course, making it better as a total package.
