G9X $529 -- RX100 $398
3

I see that at B&H the G9X is $529 and the RX100 is $398. The size/weight of these cameras is very similar:

G9X: 98 x 58 x 31 mm, 209g
RX100: 102 x 58 x 36 mm, 240g

The lens is different though:

G9X: 28-84 f2-4.9
RX100: 28-100m f1.8-4.9

What do you think? I have never used the RX100, but have seen it at stores. I like my S95, but lately have been thinking that something of similar size, but with a 1" sensor would be nice to have. Here in Japan buying Sony or Panasonic is something I usually don't consider since the menus can't be changed from Japanese so getting a normal Sony or Panasonic like is sold throughout the rest of the world is a pain in the butt and also expensive. Sometimes I am back in the States though. I have had many Canon digicams and DSLRs over the years that have all been problem free so that makes me trust Canon more (my 2 Sony DSLRs both had problems). Anyway, any thoughts about these 2 cameras?
