Re: Canon G9x- nice images, BUT...

UPDATE-- after 300+ images, 2 months of casual use--

I didn't return it, obviously. I still like the images it makes. I can do most of what I can do with my DSLR with this.

On paper I wasn't crazy about the battery life, but realized that the way I use THIS camera, 270 shots is fine. I didn't have to swap it out until after 6 or 7 weeks of use.

Auto-focus is fast and accurate, even in low light. I still LOVE the touch to focus/shoot function.

Even after consulting with Canon tech over the phone, the Wifi doesn't work with Marshmallow on my Nexus 6p, which is my chief complaint. I'll probably pair it with my old phone and keep that around as an interim measure until Canon & Huawei magically start to get along.
