The G1X3 is an amazing and overlooked little 14 oz jewell.  Its only liked by those who have used it.  My G1X3 is sharper than my EF-S 15-85 where they overlap which was my sharpest APS-C specific standard lens until now.  My original G1X was very good but not quite there.  All the EF-S/M kit zooms come in below that G1X.  Only my 16-35 f4 L on the 80D beats the G1X3 in the edges.  Both my 24-XX f4 Ls are better on full frame but the G's images are very competitive.  Canon could produce this quality of a standard zoom for the M or the EF-S line.  Why don't they?

My light weight travel kit is the G1X3 + M6II + 11-22 + EF-S 35 macro and 55-250 STM, <5 lbs total.

I wonder which series Canon kills first, the G1X or the M?
