On the upside, the focusing system doesn't hunt a lot from shot to shot, even if you turn off the default continuous autofocus setting. Much of the time in low-contrast conditions I'd get the 'can't focus' icon, sometimes for reasons that I couldn't figure out. And occasionally, even in good light, the lens would ratchet a little before locking, which would result in missed shots.ДЇocusing and shooting in dim light is exceptionally slow, at 1.3 seconds.

Time to focus and shoot in good light runs just under 0.8-second that's really slow, given that most of the competition is at 0.4-second or better. It takes almost 1.6 seconds to power on, focus, and shoot, which is actually on the fast side for enthusiast-compact cameras - they tend to be a sluggish bunch overall. I don't have direct comparison numbers for the G1 X (that was tested using older methodology), but I can say generally that it's slower in some aspects - notably shot lag - but faster at shot-to-shot and continuous-shooting performance. The lens may have a fast aperture, but it doesn't move that quickly, and I occasionally missed shots waiting for the autofocus to lock.
