It won't be better than a (slightly cropped) M43 sensor. That beeing said, I can't see a major issue at 1600 ISO with 1" or M43. Perhaps you should never look an image at 100%. At 1600 ISO, files ...

No trolling (I have a G7XII and my nly camera now, after having own DSLR then M43, and happy so far). but... In all honesty, I really thing that in 2012, Sony was the manufacturer which released a ...

The minimun focussing distances on spec sheets is typically at the widest angle. Note that is doen't mean that you'll get the best closeup when the object is close, since magnification also ...

Agree : apples to oranges comparison  (both are sweet).

Could it be that you reached the minimal focussing distance ? It is quite distant at longer FL.

The G7X, G5X and G7XII lenses are the same. So what applies to one, applies to others. Thanks for appreciating my review. If you liked the part about the lens geomtery, and are interested about the ...

It won't help for the Lensmate stuff, but I would recommend to have a look at the Magfilter system (see a post of mine here https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/59442496). The magnetic thing makes ...

I also bought a 42mm CPL magfilter (not only the adapter : the one with the built-in glass). Not bad after a first trial. The corner shading is on the same magnitude than with the adapter+filter ...

:-D :-D Please don't tell me that you drive on the left side of the road ! 1.3 inches (40cm for those driving on the right) is more realistic, indeed. But please note that @100mm (FF eq), a G7X/G5X ...

Not sure whether the resolution loss is that serious. As soon as you don't stack filters, I wouldn't be so alarming. For instance http://kurtmunger.com/hoya_close_up_setid232.html shows decent ...

See here https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/59450705 and OP. I performed some tests to review how close you can get.

Thanks a lot for the advices and your workflow. The latter is more suited to fine tuning on a one by one basis while I was looking for a default allrounder starting point. Nevertheless, you gave ...

Not an easy fit, but on a G7X II, it is possible to use Peak Design anchors : just use a sewing thread to guide/force the anchors into the small side holes. Then you can use a leach a cuff of they ...

+1 I'm pro by no means : just a happy familly + friends + travel shooter and after beeing a long term LR user, I finally switched to COP. The intitial reason was basically economic since I don't ...

Great ! The redesigned Styles tool will be very convenient IMO. Still, I can't understand why they persist not to fix the long ongoing bug about metadata of video files (at least in Windows).

In the same thread : https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/59506943 The shots are not the same. This is for my G7X II (not a G5X) but others with a G5X answered your question and report that it is ...

2nd and 3rd would have been even better with a fisheye ! ;)

Right. It's not exactly one stop but roughly, it is right : 2.87 stops from 1" to FF, the step beeing larger from APSC to FF. Typically, a regular 12-60 or 14-140 won't help you to be "faster", ...
