In Topic: Canon G1 X David Pogue Ny Times

Well BKK IMAGE, first of all I love your website , the images are wonderful!
secondly, you came to the same conclusion as David Pogue, Sony Nex is the way to go, for now.
Otherwise I say, David´s article has for sure not only the pro- photographer as his target audience.
But not written for the serious photographer in mind? I don´t see any dumping of conclusion.
Fact is, it is a poor attempt by Canon, too soon.
Quotes from the NYT article

It’s great that Canon hasn’t completely surrendered to the modern trend of eliminating the eyepiece viewfinder, which is still an advantage in bright light or very low light. What’s not great is that on this camera, if you can believe it, the lens barrel actually blocks your view. I’m not kidding.....................
The zoom seems to take a moment to engage after you push the lever (which surrounds the shutter button). The burst mode is an astonishingly slow 1.6 shots a second. (There is a 4.5 frames per second mode — six shots maximum — but you give up control over exposure, white balance and ISO, and the screen goes completely black while you’re shooting!)
The weirdest thing, though, was that I kept getting motion blur while in Auto mode. That is, if any part of my subject was in motion, it came out blurry, even in good light. That’s something we haven’t seen for years. And on a camera with a jumbo sensor? It made no sense!..................
In practice, the zooming and refocusing are so slow, they ruin many a shot. It takes six seconds to zoom 4X while filming, and about as long to refocus. Painful.

Surprisingly poor review as if Canon threw a new camera on the market without having some field test done. Shame, was looking forward myself.

installing apps is highly unpleasant. At least on my HTC whenever I want to instal a download from Android market I must enter my password. How do I know were it ends up, who says it is not been hijacked?

Hmm, Ethiad to Duesseldorf 79.000 compared to Qatar FRA close to 100.000 is worth it. Thanks!

But be carefull. Etihad has taken over Air Berlin. You might end up in an AB aircraft for the AbuDhabi/Duesseldorf leg.

Gosh, am I grateful for that warning! I think the crew would have had to forcefully restrain and handcuff me, if I had ended up on an
AirBerlin flight. Was about to book. Thanks a million and more!
