Re: G5 X circular edge softness -- is this normal?

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.

Ever shoot a 150mm macro lens at f/2.8 at minimum focusing distance ? Most of your image will be out if focus. You need to read up on depth if field before making such ill informed statements.
