Thank you for your responses and shooting tips! I did not expect a learning curve with 1" sensor coming from the G11 and 10 years of working with full frame EOS 5D bodies. With the G11 I could easily take a 1 cm macro shot and photo would turn out sharp. Now with the G5 X I don't see the point of having f/1.8 aperture and 5cm focusing distance when you're going to expect fuzzy images.

Both f1.8 and "macro" mode have their benefits individually, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will work great to use them both together.
