Re: Upgrade from a g9x II (mostly with low light and bokeh in mind)?

Chris222 - will definitely keep your endorsement of the g1x III in mind.

Swerky - I appreciate your comments about tripods as compensation for low light.  I think the idea is still in play for me because, as I think about it, most of the low light photography that interests me is of pretty still subjects (sky, landscapes) and where blur occurs with other subjects, it could be effective.

Now here's something that amuses me...after having decided I don't like the ergonomics of the used RX100 IV I got and that I would simply sell it, I found it calling to me today, and I took it out to shoot this evening along with the g9x II, and I think we might be starting to get along.  Still haven't checked out the respective image quality, so I'll be doing that.  I did see another post somewhere from someone who said he had "tried to love" RX100s, but could never quite get there.  Maybe I'll ultimately end up in the same camp.

To say this is a nice "problem" to have is an understatement of course.
