G1X mkii in coal harbor yesterday
3

i was in a tradeshow in canada place yesterday & took the oppurtunity to try my 1 day old cam.  initial impression was great.  i guess coming from g11, it is a big difference in low light hi iso.  i find focusing with touch screen is fast & accurate.  I have 2 off focus shots on a very contrasty scenario.

They all look very good to me Jackson. Coal harbour is always an interesting place to visit in Vancouver.

I noticed how sharp and clear the pictures are.

Cheers,

Rob.

Why do you dial in such high ISO, it has added noise to images that appear to be in brightly lit areas. Are you using full auto?

As he's on 1/60 at f3.5 it may not be as brightly lit as you think.
