As stated at the beginning of this thread, I'm giving up on this on camera. I say "I think" cos I won't sell it just yet but I never really got on with it. The real testament to this is that I never found myself taking out and using it. . . .

I've just bought a used (but mint) Canon g7xii. . . . I've read good things about the g7xii so I'm quite excited. What do you all think, am I giving up on m43 too easily?

I use various Canon and Panasonic cameras, including G7 X Mark II, GX8, G85 and G9. They are great cameras for different applications, but I should point out that, while the G9 is a solid leap forward for Panasonic, the G7 X II's DIGIC processor tends to do a better job at color rendition and high-ISO noise management.

In general, you should enjoy using a camera to do photography with it. Such sustained enjoyment goes beyond both your skills and the camera's capabilities.

If you have rarely felt inclined to use the GX7 and now feel that the G7 X Mark II will be a better companion (being a compact with built-in zoom lens) for your own photographic experiences, so be it.

Have fun!
