Is The Canon G1X Mark III The Best Point-And-Shoot Camera In 2024? 

This is a hidden little gem. I think the reason it didn’t get love was because of the lens not being sharp enough BUT don’t consider that it CAN zoom. A microphone jack would have sent sales through the roof

Dude. YOU ROCK. Do more of this. Get the truth out there.

I have been saying this about this camera for years. It is amazing. I wish Canon would do something about the android app. I know all companies are horrible with their camara app. Great video! Free Palestine 🇵🇸

the photos in front of the flowers were my favorite! you make the camera look so cool hehe awesome video omar 😎

Yes for the simple setup video 😮

I have owned this since 2019 and the specs suite me perfectly with what I want, I have yet to see a camera of this size and weight that has the features I want. I did look at Ricoh, which is light weight but then there are some missing features.

It really depends on the photographer and how they like to shoot. I have the G7X which is a great everyday carry. I found the G1X a little bulky - it doesn’t fit as neatly into my pocket. I had the same issue with the M50 and the M6 which I also own. As much there may be cameras with better specs it all comes down to practicality and usage. There’s no one size fits all - it’s always a personal preference.

Agree it's a great P/S camera. Have mine, and sold my Ricoh GRIII once I used both together. Having a finder for bright days and weathersealing makes it great for travel. Agree that's it's not sexy and doesn't look like much, which as you mentioned is a plus. Do wish it were faster (aperture) at the long end but understand why. My only major gripe with this camera is high ISO noise above 3200 gets a bit funky. Even my noise reduction software struggles to clean it. Other than that, it's my small camera of choice.

The RX100 series sucks for skintones, I have the IV and did not want to upgrade, otherwise amazing and very compact camera.

A time I was waiting for one to be at a good price, as it seemed perfect to replace a Fujifilm X100 with wide and teleconverter while getting IBIS and a weather resistant body; but the more photos I saw with it the less enthusiastic I felt because the lens. Is not that it is slow, it's the rendering, is digitally corrected and the bokeh in its quality, not its size, is closer to the rendering of a small sensor camera than to an aps-c camera. Maybe because the manufacturing process of the lens. If it gets hyped I will be happy to see the photos made by creatives though, as yours : )

This camera was much more expensive back when I was looking to get into APS-C. I ultimately went for an ILC system to get the benefit of primes and larger reach telephotos. Canon G1X III is going for good used prices now... much better than what people are over-paying for some other fixed lens and fixed zoom portables.

This makes me want a 360 camera so damn bad

A 3” recorder would be great

Amazing info! Question what do you think about using the dji osmo pocket 3 creator combo with the mic for recording work and vlogging and face tracking when I’m stuck alone?

I already have the Canon G7X II. That is my go-to small point and shoot. I would pass on G1X personally, because at that size I would rather use an R50, plus I get the advantage of using different lens. Thanks for the video.

My old ass rx100 5 rejects this title

The rx100 has it beat in speed , the x100 has it beat in resolution , the gr has it beat in size , the s9 has it beat in video. Its not "the best". Its just a cheapee alternative , just because a zve10 provides good value doesnt mean its the best mirrorless cams.
