The Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark II is a little heavier than either the Leica or the Fuji and, although it's being advertised as a compact, it's no slim little thing. But it does do stuff neither of my regular cameras can. For example, while I love their fix...

When it was showcased at the CP+ Imaging Show in Japan in February, Canon's PowerShot G1X Mark II attracted plenty of attention, largely because photographers wanted to see whether the new camera had improved on the original model. It was a big ask, since...
The lack of a built-in viewfinder is always a deal-breaker for us and reviewing the PowerShot G1X Mark II reinforced our belief that any kind of viewfinder, no matter how basic, is better than none at all. An optional EVF is a poor solution, requiring the... |

The big sensor, small pixel count, modest zoom and optically brilliant lens altogether make for images unlike other compacts can produce. Dynamic range is wide; resolved detail is sparkling and the ISO sensitivity can be set up to 3200 with good results.

The Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark II is the company's highest spec compact camera yet, superseding the original G1 X from 2012. Far from being a straightforward rehash of the earlier large sensor model, the Mark II is a total rework. It's built around a whole...
