The ring bumping only happens when the camera is turned on and with direct physical contact. But the camera is small, the ring goes right to the bottom of it and accidental contact with your clothes… you never know.
It’s strange that nobody else has mentioned it.

The “good” thing is, the ring is impossible to turn when you mount the camera on a tripod plate. But I assume, Sony has fixed that issue in the newer models.

I use the touch screen on the G7X only for changing the focus point. For changing settings I prefer the dials. Never anything accidental happened.

Another thing to consider is, that the Sony doesn’t allow manual flash control without preflash. If you ever want to trigger an external flash optically, you will appreciate the manual flash setting of the G7X and S90.
