I tested the Canon G1X today in one of the photography outlet shops.where the stock was available. There was a shortage of stocks.
Compared to the G9 (I know the camera G12 is the latest before the G1X), these are the differences:
i) When you take a picture, the processing in the camera takes some time...so you will miss out on the next shots you wish to take.
ii) You can avoid this when you take pictures using the sports (running man) mode, or the high speed multi action mode.
iii)You can take near pictures in the macro, but not as close as the G9. The G1X needs about 1 meter , whereas the G9 can take pictures of objects as close as a couple of centimeters away.
iv)One advantage of the G1X is that it can take pictures and process in HDR in camera.
v) The zoom range of G1X is only 4 times, whereas the G1 you can zoom 6X.
vi) Pictures taken with G1X are sharp with nice colours. However, I prefer the Olympus EP3 which I have with me for some time, and pictures are sharp with better colours.
More updates when I get more opportunities to check on the camera.
