In my view the Canon G1x iii has an amazing ability to get the right exposure, both with and without flash, and for me at least seems to be just the right size. Also great ergonomics. The large sensor (for a pocket camera) seems to give a richer appearance than that from a smaller sensor camera. On the down side, it is a little slow to start up.

I have to revisit the G1x iii. The bigger sensor is nice. Not quite sure about the size, but definitely a consideration. Thanks

I agree in that the G1X Mark III is practically the perfect travel cam.  The APS-C quality is noticeably better than the 1" cams at higher ISO.  And the combination of size, ergonomics, controls and quality make it a joy to use.  I spent quite some time in Italy with it and have been quite happy with the images.  Especially since it felt like I wasn't even carrying a camera around.

Its main downside would be if you value video at all.  I do quite a bit and although the 1080p is ok, its a far cry from he 4K quality of the R10 or M6 Mark II.
