What I struggled with in deciding to get the G5X over the G1X Mark III was the realization that assuming the same shutter speed a shot like this would have been taken with an ISO about 1 1/3 stops lower with similar noise and detail. I'm sure the differences in the lenses would be a factor but I still couldn't justify the difference in cost. I realize that I'm giving up some dynamic range in certain scenarios like when both cameras would have been shot at base ISO but don't think that would happen often enough to justify the big price difference.

The DPR shooutout between the G1XIII and G7XII agrees with you

And that’s what I’ve been trying to explain to a number of ppl here throughout this thread , for several days already

I think most here knew this already. You don't buy the G1X III for low light shooting. That's like trading for Shaq for his free throw shooting.

Well, it's not that extreme - it might be like trading for LeBron for his shot-blocking. He does it OK but it's not where he shines.
