I'm toying with getting a 1" type compact camera for those times that I just can't be bothered to carry a 'proper' camera around, but want something with more flexibility and IQ than my iPhone. I've had the RX100-3 and Canon G7x in the past but only found IQ a bit so so, however I'm getting less picky now and at times have been 'happy' with images took on the phone.
The cameras I've bene looking at are the RX100 up to a mark 5 (I don't want one with the slower lens), Canon G7x-II and G5x-II. I prefer the idea of the Canon's due to the grip mainly, but also the longer reach (105mm and 120mm respectively vs 70mm of the Sony). Of the two the G5x-II looks the better option as it have a longer reach (whilst maintaining f2.8 at the long end) and has a pop up EVF. However, I found the G7x I had to be quite soft in the corners at the wide end, does anyone know if the G7x-II and/or G5x-II suffer the same, and whether the Sony's are better in this regard?
