The G1x3 seems to be a very specialized beast. It will shine where you can keep the sensitivity at the lowest. In others situations, while not being bad, some cameras with 1” sensor can do better.

That said, the G1x3 compromises are already broadly known, most of your points against the camera have already be pointed out in tests and discussed here.

So to me it just looks like you bought the wrong camera for your needs. Why did you buy it ?

I bought it because I like trying new cameras . I like the colour rendition of Canon, Nikon , Pentax , Leica ,Fuji’s and Ricoh . If you see my gear list , which is incomplete actually,you’ll see . That’s being said , I found the camera to be inferior in its optical performance to many others .

Your observation about optical quality is not consistent with what DPr shows in their review of the camera, except for AC. May be sample variation ?

I would prefer to think so . I can share a raw file privately .  Especially on the  wide end it was soft with lots of CA. For some reason F5.6 was the softest
