I would like to see a potential G1X IV with a 24-100 f2.8-4 lens, with newer processor and 32mpx APS-C sensor, and wouldn't mind a larger and heavier (around 600g) body

Hm, I wonder if it could be kept at 600g, but this surely would be an interesting cam.

with a larger capacity battery with that.

Could not agree more. That minuscule battery is the one real design blunder on the G1X3. All they have to do is extend the grip to match the front of the lens (which would much improve the grip, although it's not bad right now) and stick a larger batt in there.

I keep spare batts, but still, this would be an easy fix!
