Review: If you wanted the RX100 but like Canon menu/thinking/design better, you got it. Best P&S Camera I have owned yet. - FYI: I got this yesterday morning so it's about 24 hours in, I have about 125 pictures on it so far...I will update as time goes on. My intended use for this camera is a "bridge camera". I have a new iPhone and the requisite (meh) Olloclips for it, some Canon DSLR's and a Canon S120 for everything in between. The G7X II is going to replace the Canon S120 in my collection as the unit that rides in the center console of my car in a case, or in my pocket at events I don't want to carry a DSLR at but still want some ok zoom and better than phone pictures. I am writing this early review because, I've been a Canon guy over the years. Had Canon P&S units starting with the digital ELPH through the S120 , and then more recently got into their DSLRs. So yeah I like Canon, but for years I kept bought the Sony RX100's. I really wanted to like the Sony but never quite "got" it. The G7X II, to me - while a little bigger handling than the RX100's, is finally the Canon P&S that does what I really hoped they would do. It provides some incredible pictures that are actually better than the (current gen) RX100 finally. The photos aren't as oversaturated as the Sony which I like, the IS works very consistently, and bokeh is of course great at the larger apertures. Higher iso (800 area) is still usable for smaller prints which is remarkable for a P&S of any sort. It shoots RAW fast and its shot-to-shot and burst modes are amazing. Regarding the RX100’s, their picture quality was amazing, their size was a bit larger than I cared for but, their controls, menus, options, and design (like paying extra for a 12$ grip!) annoyed me, then the whole buying a separate external charger thing to charge my spare battery, really? I know its 30$ or whatever but it just got annoying ..they got returned. Really it was their menus and weird software that just irked me and I couldn't overlook it. The G7X bests that all. On the G7X II , controls are great and similar to any of the other "red-ring' Powershot G series (or DSLR's, P&S, etc.). Being able to adjust exposure comp and other settings with the hard controls while you can still use it one handed is great. I also love the fact they included a detent/non-detent switch for using the ring dial. That is BRILLIANT as heck since I can now get the stops I want when shooting manual stills, but the flexibility for seamless and silent zoom when in video. Of course it also includes the silly wall charger Sony wouldn't, and out of box has a nice set of grips on it. Did I mention the menuing, controls, and software are all Canon finally too? I mean...finally, stunning P&S photos without the Sony software layer ahhhhh. Comparing this to my Canon S120, its obviously faster, larger, but menus are very similar. The wireless on this thing is better and faster, and smarter. The touchscreen seems more accurate in sensitivity and color, the fact it articulates for selfie and variable angle modes is awesome, didn't think I would care much but that is really handy. I have no idea on battery life yet but the fact you can charge this via microUSB is AWESOME for me. Of course the fact I can charge a second battery in the (included) wall charger is very nice, thanks for not being weird about that Canon. Oh the pictures? yeah...they are night and day over the S120 just using auto and scene modes. Since this is a P&S unit, I love that I can shoot RAW with AUTO settings now. Going into manual mode it becomes evident the G7x II has a bit more capable sensor than the S120, which is why I'm here anyways. Pros: - Great pictures. - Touch screen that works great and the touch to focus is awesome and quick. - Great control set, GREAT grips, engineering, design, thinking. - Nice flippable flash, easy to bounce in smaller spaces. - Menu's are classic Canon, love it or hate it. - MicroUSB charging (could be faster, but its in there!) - Time lapse mode (have not explored yet, but looking forward to it) - Would not call it a pocket camera but it can still be fit in a pocket (its big, it will bulge some in shorts, better for a coat or vest etc. but it fits), but all controls and functions are at least easy to use as a result of this. Cons: - No 4k video. Amazing video quality, but lack of 4k just seems like an oversight here. Not enough to push me away, but I'd have dropped another 100$-200$ for this. - Size goes on both lists...yes is a bit large, but all those controls and electronics need somewhere to go. It's just not something I am going to hand to my wife without a case and expect her to carry when she takes our daughter to the zoo. It needs a case, with some padding. - Zoom (I am reaching here...just to keep the list somewhat balanced) I wouldn't have minded an 120mm equivalent here. The 100 will still cause me to keep it because I hate the digital zoom on my phones. - Wish it had GPS or at least a compass built in. Overall, I bought this thinking I would be disappointed and return it. Instead I was pleasantly surprised and as of this moment I am planning on listing my S120 on eBay next weekend. If you are looking for a “simple” camera that has the ability to go where other P&S’s don’t quality wise, don’t mind a bit larger camera, or just want the P&S camera that makes you look like you know what you’re doing…I think the G7X II ticks those boxes. As I type this, my girl is at a family bridal shower with the G7X II. She’s used my S120 for awhile now and just before she left I handed her the G7X II and said don’t worry - try this one (with no further instructions). I asked how the new camera was working for her “things look better on this camera than they do in real life” , I was really expecting a “how do I” so…I guess it’s behaving well :) I will update this in the next week or so, if there is anything you’d like to see that could help improve this review let me know. Thanks for your time, and for reading my review today. -Chris
Review: I really like this camera. It's a bit expensive for a Point & Shoot, but it competes well with low- to medium end dSLR cameras. - I delayed writing this review for 4 months, just to be sure my opinion doesn't change. It hasn't, I really like this camera! It takes great quality pictures. It has a zoom lens at a great range (24mm - 105mm), it has all of the automatic features you could ask for (focus, aperture, film speed, shutter speed). Or, you can select manual shutter speed or aperture and the camera will set everything else. Or, you can select all-manual, if you want to set everything yourself. It has a high pixel count (24 megapixel), and it can even be set to shoot in RAW so you can do lots of darkroom magic, if you want. I shot with a manual SLR (a Canon FTb) from the early 70's to the late 90's, then I lost interest. I had purchased a 35mm lens and a 135mm lens to compliment the 50mm supplied with the SLR. I also had lots of peripherals; flashes, macro tubes, remote releases, yada, yada, yada. I felt like a pack mule every time I left the house. I found out a few things about a manual SLR: they're heavy; I took 80% of my pictures with the stock 50mm lens; and the picture quality was only good when I had plenty of time to set up the shot. Mostly, the pictures I got were just on the edge of over- or under-exposed, and were often barely in focus. So, when I decided to get back into photography, I decided to buy a new camera and I wanted that camera to offer: point and shoot for simplest use; good quality pictures so it had to offer a high megapixel rating; a zoom lens that was about the range of my old manual lenses; and light weight so it would be easy to carry around all day. This camera hit all of these requirements and at a reasonable price. The pictures I'm getting with this point and shoot are far superior to those I got from my old SLR. I just couldn't be happier, though I will admit that a modern dSLR will probably also show a similarly dramatic improvement over the old manual SLR's, but at a much higher price. Some cautions: 1) Buy a high speed memory card, at least 90 MB/sec. Dumping 30 MB of a picture into a memory card takes time, so a fast memory card is a must to get the fastest possible shot rate. 2) Look into the Lensmate filter adapter. This device enables you to attach a UV filter to protect the zoom lens from dirt and water. 3) Buy a spare battery, preferably a Canon (a bit expensive, but worth it). Digital cameras live and die by their batteries, so it makes sense to have a good quality spare when you're out for extended shooting. 4) Buy a decent strap, the wrist strap supplied with the camera really isn't enough. Look at the Peak Design Camera Leash; rugged, flexible, and easy to remove when storing the camera. If you want the ability to change out lenses, this camera is not for you. But, if you want to take lots of great pictures easily and without the hassle of lugging a lot of equipment around, look into this camera!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impressive follow-up to the G7X
*by S***T on June 21, 2016*

I want to first discuss the autofocus. This camera DOES NOT use dual pixel AF or any other phase detect AF system in it. Manage your autofocus expectations accordingly. Especially in low light and in video. However, it does have a noticeable improvement in speed over its predecessor and for most situations it's fine. What this camera excels at, just like its predecessor, is stills. It has excellent low and mid ISO image quality. I prefer the Fine Detail setting as my picture style as it provide excellent sharpness and punchy, great-looking colors by default. But there are a number of other picture styles to suit your tastes. I also love that this camera now has in camera raw processing, which can be useful.It seems also like Canon has quietly made some improvements to the lens because it seems a bit sharper than the one on the G7X even though they are supposed to be the same. Video quality is also excellent and quite sharp. The autofocus is pretty good but because it's contrast detect, you will see a little bit of back and forth motion with the focus from time but otherwise it's not bad. Great for casual uses such as vlogging. The camera controls are well laid-out. I like the chunkier grip and that the exposure comp dial has better feedback to it. The one its predecessor could be a little hard to turn (but kudos to Canon for at least including one - Sony RX100 has no such dial on top). The LCD is bright and clear and also is more flexible, which means it's a lot easier to compose on in bright sunlight. Battery life is not stellar but once again, this also an improvement over the original G7X. It should last you a day of shooting. Complaints? I think the major one is, and this seems to be an issue on both the G7X and the RX100 series cameras, is that dust can easily get inside the lens. Even though the camera has a built-in automatic lens cap, it does a poor job at keeping dust and other particles out. I would recommend getting a secondary lens cap which can run anywhere from $5-$15 at the big NYC camera retailers or here on Amazon. I also think the noise reduction in the JPEGS is a little heavy-handed by default. You should turn this down to low. But overall, a great enthusiast compact camera. The 1" Sony sensor inside is still relatively small compared to APSC rebels or mirrorless but it punches above its weight in image quality. If you really don't see yourself going much beyond the kit lens if you were to buy a Rebel, this could be a great alternative. It takes great photos and video, has improved (but not perfect) AF and battery life over the original, and it comfortable to shoot with.
