So How does the G5X original stack up against the G7X family as far as responsiveness overall is concerned (Hopefully quicker than the G7X orig at launch) , I`m not after continuous tracking or anything but a cam which is like molasses shot to shot drives me nuts .. same , how about the G3X .. I Know the sensor from the Sonys, I shoot RAW exclusively and use capture one . the Orig G5X is attractive as it has a fixed EVF, EOS-M5 ergos and is only a lump on top bigger than an RX100

I had both the G7x mkI and the G5x mkI. I didn't feel there was any significant difference in the AF speed nor the shot to shot for RAW. It is listed at 1fps and it does feel like that.

I like the design and had hoped for a mkii in the same or slightly improved body. Alas no.

My uncle has a LX10 which I'm keen to borrow and test the AF speed. The newer Sonys look quite responsive.
