Okay photog community...

I'm in need of your photo wisdom again. My GF wants a compact camera with a fast lens without fuss of changing lenses. I narrowed it to these cameras. Both rocking f/1.8 zooms. But Sony has the Carl Zeiss (matters or marketing ploy?).

Anybody following the latest comparisons between these models can chime in and help me choose.

I believe, from what I recall.. the g7x is sporting a new BSI sensor for superior low light performance. While the Sony can deliver lower ISO and sharper macro.

I know this is the Canon sub-forum, but let's be as unbiased as possible.

Talk to me! [emoji12]
 
All nice cameras, finally Canon is in the game (with a real compact large sensor camera):
( Both G7X and RX100 III are BSI-CMOS, RX100 II is CMOS)

G7X vs RX100 III: Both cameras are great but I prefer RX 100 III because of the viewfinder:
GX7 pros:
- touch screen
- 24-100mm vs 24-70mm lens
- $100 cheaper (in US)
RX100 III pros:
- has a viewfinder
-10fps vs 7 fps
- Battery life 320 vs 210 (terrible)

This is where I use for comparisons by the way:
Canon G7X vs Sony RX100 II

G7X vs RX100 II: Close call but I prefer G7X because of 24mm anf f2.8 at 100mm
GX7 pros:
- touch screen
- 24-100 vs 28-100 (24 vs 28mm is huge difference on wide)
- Aperture at 100mm : f2.8 vs f4.9 (another huge difference)
RX100 II pros:
- External Flash Shoe
-10fps vs 7 fps
- $200 cheaper ( in US)
