A simple toggle or cycling behavior would be more efficient. The way the shortcut button works, a menu appears with two options and then the user must use the 4-way controller to select one of them. For example, the ND filter has an Off and On option. This makes sense for a lot of things but in cases where only two options exist, it should really be a toggle. This is a programable button which can be set to show options for a number of features. Next to the viewfinder, on the left is the most oddly placed button on the camera, the Shortcut button. Most Canon G-series have had this problem for a long time. It does allow self-portraits with the camera on a tripod though, something which bottom-hinged LCD cannot do.Ībove the LCD is an optical tunnel viewfinder showing part of the lens barrel and a paltry 85% linear coverage, excluding the part of the frame obstructed by the lens. This makes it more vulnerable and awkward when framing at odd angles. The hinge is also unfortunately on the side which forces the LCD outwards before being tilted vertically. The LCD is attached to the camera by a rotating hinge with is the only weak part of the G1 X and could break off easily. This is great and much better than most fixed-lens cameras reviewed here lately. The display shows a bright image for framing but previews the exposure when the shutter-release is pressed halfway.

It is very sharp and has good visibility. The dominating element is a large 3" LCD with 920K pixels. The rear of this digital camera is very busy. Further left is a standard hot-shoe and beyond that is a sliding spring-loaded switch to release the built-in flash. The mode-dial has good detents and stays were it is left. To the left are the EC and mode dials on top of each other.

The power-button behind it is flush enough to avoid turning on the camera inadvertently. Given the shape of this camera, the shutter-release is probably in the best position. Still, this is much better than not having those controls. The front control-dial is well positioned and works perfectly with bare hands though. The rear control-dials spins too easily and is lower on the body than ideal while the EC is just beyond comfortable reach but has strong detents to prevent accidental changes. These controls make the Canon G1 X quite efficient to use even though they are not so ergonomic. This Canon feels mostly solid and has a substantial weight for its size.Ĭanon provided with the G1 X with plenty of controls including dual control-dials and a direct EC dial just below the traditional mode-dial. With the right hand on the grip and the left holding the lens, the camera stays very stable. It is easy to hold, although a deeper grip would be more comfortable.

The Canon Powershot G1 X is a chunky compact camera with a small grip and protruding lens barrel.
