Make your decision based on your needs. Not pixel peeping images. Yes, people very happy with G16, but unfortunately versatility in any lowish light situation is weak compared to the 1" type cameras.

Look at the strengths and weaknesses of each camera. The G16 only strength IMO is it's price, in comparison to the others you have on the table (G7X, G9X, G5X). G9X strength is that it's small and truly pocketable... G7X, bright tele, great bokeh and versatility (for cameras in this size class), tiltable display. G5X, Same lens as G7X, tiltable display, more physical controls, and more options (HDR bracketing, 24p/25p/30p/50p/60p video), EVF, hot shoe

Then consider the negatives... eg, G9X no tiltable display, dimmer tele, less reach.... G7X, a bit too bulky to be truly pocketable....G5X, biggest and most expensive.

In a nutshell.

wonderful ... thank you !
