Twitch, awesome collection on Flickr!
Same reasoning as well for the G1X vs the RX100. I strictly desired a pocket camera. If I'm going large it's the K5 that's being used. I've had some Canon point and shoots as well as a 7D and just never warmed to them. The G1X sensor seems to be a varient of whats in the T2/3 7D so I'm familiar with the output.
They are all tools in the end. What they have done is finally given us a small point and shoot that you can control like a DSLR with a sensor that is almost as good. Hopefully this starts a race to get larger sensors into point and shoots.
