In addition Panet's comments, kinda up to you as to which camera best meets "YOUR" photography needs/ preferences, and budget.

If you do not mind not having a built-in EVF and do not do much low light shooting the G3X with it's newer/ larger 1"-Type sensor and 24-600mm EFL lens would make a good general purpose/ travel camera, and wildlife photography.

I would 'HIGHLY' recommend ta,king the time doing some online searches to find Full Review (that has full size sample images) for each camera to find out which one is the best one for you.

I have the G15 and like it very much for a enthusiast pocketable compact.  For "myself" (mainly shoot RAW) there was not enough difference between the G16 and G15 to warrant the cost of buying the G16.

There are plenty of G15 vs G16 type older posts in this forum; just use the
"Search this forum"; e.g., HERE.

I had the G1X.  IQ wise its a great camera, but with slow overall operation and somewhat dismal close-focusing (Marco) operation. See the DPR G1X Review HERE.

After you've read reviews, post questions you may have for further help.

Good Luck.
Jon
