My g7x covers the standard bases really well. It fits in any jacket and most pants pockets, and handles low light, wide angle, and even portraits pretty well. The only thing I ever really miss is some extra telephoto reach.

Keep in mind, because the g7x has a much bigger sensor and higher megapixels than the elphs, you can do a little bit of cropping and probably get to around 200mm at similar quality to the elphs without a crop.

If I were more of a tele shooter I might stick something like an SX710 in my other pocket if I need portable reach, or a g3x if the larger size is still ok. Sometimes on trips or with wildlife, theres just no replacement for zoom.
