Apart from lack of built in viewfinder on g7x3, is there actually that much of a difference between G7x mk III and G5x mk ii?

“Better” lens. And I’d argue yes.

The G7x III wins for YouTube, but for stills? G5x II is quite a bit better. I don’t do the YouTube thing.

Now the G7x III is no slouch btw. For the price it’s not bad. But the G5x II’s reach is appreciated.

Took a look at one sample and it makes RF 24-105 stm look like a $3000 ultra sharp L prime in comparision, ouch.

I am considering RX100 mk 7, G5 X mk II and ZV-1 also.
