Canon PowerShot G1 X photos
Larger and a bit heavier than the G12, the G1 X shares the same design sensibility.
Similar to the G12
The G1 X's body design is quite similar to the G12's, though slightly bigger and heavier. While there's a lot to like in the camera's specs, especially the large sensor, the lens looks a bit disappointing; at f2.8 the aperture doesn't start out very wide, and it gets pretty narrow at a not-terribly-long focal length of f5.8. Plus, while that knurled ring around the lens looks like it'd be great for focusing or zooming, it's just there for show.
Full controls
Like the G12, the G1 X has dials within dials--in this case a mode dial circumscribed by an exposure-compensation dial--and hot shoe. The flash seems surprisingly small for such a large camera, though.

Back controls
The rear controls are basically the same as on the G12, though laid out differently, and it has a larger thumb rest and direct-record button for video capture.
Large LCD
The large articulated LCD is similar to that of the T3i.
