I am not a professional photographer. I admit that I won't be in the elite range of microstockers with super expensive equipment but as I read on many sites,this camera is advertised as dsrl like quality of image.
80 % of the shots from my G12 have been rejected for quality, while more than 80% of the shots from any DSLR I used (including 350D RebelXT) were approved (shooting RAW only with both). I guess that says something.
You can get a Pentax K5 II with 18-55 WR "kit" lens. (Not a bad lens either) for less than that G1x II.

(Not a bad lens either) for less than that G1x II.Pentax K5 II is great and the Pentax kit lens is the only decent kit-lens on the market. If it's the same price or even cheaper I agree it is the better and more flexible option just not that pockable than the G1x II.
I guess this G1x mk2 is acceptable for shooting stock.
The g1x mark 2 has a focus ring which can help to achieve the depth of field effect.
It works but why do you want to make your life harder? Just get an entry level dslr.
I'm on a tight budget and I don't plan to invest in a dslr camera,lens and other upgrades in the near future. That's the reason I want to invest in a very good p & s camera for the moment. I plan to use it for shooting landscapes, nature, food, isolated objects, textures like rusty doors, old walls.
Can you recommend me a good dsrl + kit lens? My budget is 1300 dollars. Thank you.
Graphic designers do tend to do better than average though.

Thank you.Difydave already recommended the Pentax K5 II it's a good choice as you get more for your bucks, the entry level cameras of Canon and Nikon or mostly unnatural limited to not compete with their higher priced models but everything is good nowadays and for 1300,- Dollar there is a lot to choose from.
I plan to but a canon M (not canon M2) with 1855 and 22 lens.ANY buddy know canon M.Is it good for stock?
