I always prefer to use a viewfinder and not the back screen when taking pictures. My question is, will I have difficulties framing shots with the Canon G1X?</P><P>I would like to hear from someone who has first hand experience with the optical viewfinder. If the viewfinder is very difficult to work with, I may end up getting the Canon G5X with a 1 inch sensor which has an EV viewfinder.&nbsp;&nbsp;</P><P>Your thoughts would be appreciated.</P><P>Kind regards</P><P>Chris&nbsp;</P> Mon, 02 Jan 2023 18:18:18 GMT Chris_N 2023-01-02T18:18:18Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/Thoughts-On-Canon-G1X-Viewfinder/m-p/400215#M16665 <P>I am thinking on buying a used Canon G1X (Mark 1, 2012 version) for casual shooting, because it is more portable than my 90D and has a large 1.5 sensor.&nbsp;</P><P>I am worried because the optical tunnel viewfinder does not have good reviews.
