Canon PowerShot G5 X Earned the Silver Award With an Average Score

From Dpreview conclusion :

The PowerShot G5 X is a well-designed and easy-to-use premium compact that takes good quality photos and videos and offers a nice EVF and LCD on which to compose them. It’s subpar battery life, so-so lens and sluggish continuous Raw shooting keep it from being a top choice.
