  • Excellent all-around pocket camera, Quality stills and movies, Bright 4.2x zoom
  • Weak battery life, Occasional focus miscues, No hot shoe
  • The PowerShot G7 X is without a doubt one of the best pocket cameras Canon has ever released. Good pictures, nice movies, a bright lens, and loads of adjustments make it an easy Editors' Choice recommendation. It's not perfect but it's simply a great wal...

  • Excellent image quality, Premium design with good physical controls, Versatile 24-100mm lens
  • No hotshoe, Dated AF system
  • A 1-inch sensor in a pocketable body makes the Canon PowerShot GX 7 a great high-end compact, as long as you don't mind the lack of EVF.Next, read our Best Cameras Round-up...

  Published: 2014-10-21, Author: Bruno , review by: digitalversus.com

  • Build quality, Easeofuse, Lens captures lots of light in all positions, Nice zoom range (24100mm), Responsive, Touchscreen tilts vertically 180°, WiFi and NFC, Charger included, Low image noise up to 1600 ISO
  • Picture lacks uniformity across the frame, USB cable not included, MiniB port, Images could be sharper, RAW photos save slowly, Max. shutter speed only 1/2000, Battery life: 280 photos, No panoramic mode, No builtin EVF?
  • With its image sensor, zoom lens and tiltable touchscreen, the PowerShot G7X is equipped to spar with the kings of the pocket-sized expert compact cameras, the Sony RX100's. The picture quality isn't as impressive, but it's better-built, faster and more u...

  Published: 2014-10-21, Author: Jonathan , review by: amateurphotographer.co.uk

  • Excellent image quality from this camera's 1-inch sensor, Premium design with good physical controls, 24-100mm equivalent focal length is versatile enough to cover a wide range of shooting scenarios, Responsive 1.04-million-dot resolution LCD touchscreen
  • No hotshoe, Dated AF system
  • The G7 X is Canons first foray into the 1-inch-sensor compact camera market and given that this section has been dominated almost exclusively by Sonys RX100 series, the G7 X is a welcome contender. The RX100 Mark III has a neat pop-up OLED viewfinder an...

  Published: 2014-10-11, Author: Mike , review by: pocket-lint.com

  • Great build quality, customisable lens control ring, decent low-mid ISO image quality with delicate processing, fast 24-100mm f/1.8-2.8 (equiv) lens, smaller than many G-series cameras, WiFi works well, touchscreen tilt-angle LCD screen
  • No viewfinder or facility to add one, high ISO image quality (over ISO 1600) not all that, zoom toggle control rather than lens zoom ring, battery is only so-so, Sony RX100 III a step ahead, where are the next-level autofocus features
  • As the high-end compact camera war hots up, Canon's first dip into the 1-inch sensor market is a solid effort. If it was 2013 then Canon would have struck gold with the PowerShot G7 X. But what a difference a year makes, for the Sony Cyber-shot RX10...

  • A tardy, but excellent, entry to the high-end compact camera game. Once upon a time if you were looking for a fantastic point-and-shoot that you could fit in your pocket, you were looking for a Canon S-series point-and-shoot. From the S90 to the S95...

  • 1, inch sensor in a compact body, Large aperture for depth of field control and faster shutter speed, High build quality
  • No viewfinder, Fixed screen rather than tilting/variangle, F/1.8 aperture only at the widest focal length
  • Although it's a G-series camera the G7 X looks more like the S120 than the G16 or G1 X Mark II – it's much sleeker in appearance than other G-series models. At 103x60.4x40.4mm and 304g it's also just a little bigger and heavier than the S120 (100.2x59x29m...
