I'm sorry, but I feel like the discussion would be a lot more interesting if you would actually read what I wrote.

What, in the 3 first paragraphs, made you though I had not read that incomplete article already. I'd like to see a comparison between the G5X and the G1X-III at 24mm, and not only in cell-phone friendly conditions. For example some night shots hand held at 24mm.

Again I'm still not saying the G1X-III is the most versatile camera but compared, as it should be in my humble opinion, to the like of Ricoh GR and Fuji X70 - X100 series, would be one of the most interesting cameras of the lot. And people have been waiting for a GR update for a long time.

I mean, ok the X100F (83% gold award) as almost a stop more from the lens but, considering it is a 35mm equivalent, hand held shot would require a quicker shot, especially since it lacks any IS. It also lack weather sealing. The hybrid VF is an interesting idea though. The Ricoh was also given a gold award, I already made the comparison.

So again, Don't you think it would have been better received if it actually did not have any zoom at all ? (and don't you find that a bit odd ?)$

If you had read hat shootout attentively you would have seen a unique studio scene where all focal lengths are compared at all stops! Wish they would alway do that (and I did ask but got rejected by some Barney).
