A Couple of Canon G1X Samples for Your Thursday - Digital Camera Forums

Hey guys, I took the G1X for a quick trip around the block yesterday and I have a few sample images to share. Not enough for a first look, but you know, I couldn't just keep them to myself.

Gotta say I'm impressed with the image of the greeting cards, it was shot at ISO 1600. Check out the text on the cards at 100%, it looks pretty sharp, at least to my eye.

Review coming right up in a couple of weeks!

Nice definition, at least at this aperture. JPG or RAW?

All JPEG. No extra processing, straight out of the camera.

Looks like the IQ is there. For anybody satisfied with 28-112 range, this could be "the" camera!

I'm just new to photography and doesn't really quite understand how you able to capture those beautiful picture. Can you suggest a good camera for me? A camera that mostly preferred by tourist while travelling. I like to share some picture here too.

Pix's look great especially for iso 1600. Great improvement over the G10 I have. How is the shutter response time on this version? G10 was a little sluggish - maybe it was the AF response that was causing the lag.
