It is a testament to how demanding the camera market place is of manufacturers at the moment that Canon could bring out a large sensor compact like the G1 X and for me to have quite a few major gripes about it.

This is the best image quality we’ve ever seen from a camera in the ‘compact’ class. Although the Panasonic GX1 with 14-42mm PZ comes pretty close for around the same price. Video wise, image quality at 1080/24p is actually rather detailed and can be almost DSLR standard but it is not a match for the GH2 because of heavy aliasing, a slow fixed lens and a lack of manual control.

It is amazing how much effort went into designing the lens for this camera, while no effort was placed on the overall camera speed. 

Maybe Sony will get it right with their large sensor fixed zoom camera.  At least the video should look good with their APS-C sensor and manual controls.
