Scene Recognition shooting mode is accurate and easy to use without worry
Canon's HS system led by the 4.2x optical f/1.82.8 lens is awesome in lowlight situations
The absence of a built-in viewfinder will always be a deal-breaker for us so we're inclined to recommend the PowerShot G5X, which has a high-resolution EVF built-in, over the PowerShot G7X Mark II. Particularly in the Southern Hemisphere, where skies are...
Great lowlight performance, Tilting touchscreen, Plenty of manual control options, Raw format shooting
No viewfinder, Screen not fully articulating, Limited zoom range
Canon didn't need to deliver a major overhaul of its excellent G7 X, and the upgrades in the G7 X II build on the original camera's reputation, particularly the performance-boosting Digic 7 processor. The only disappointment is the continued absence of a...
Small and relatively affordable for a oneinch sensor compact, Bright and sharp LCD touchscreen that tilts right back for selfies, Simple design with a convenient control dial around the lens, The new Digic 7 processor means fast 8fps burst shooting and lo
No EVF and no hot shoe for adding an accessory, Video is limited to 1080p, not 4K, Few physical buttons for manual exposure control, Somewhat limited focal length range, Autofocus strugles with closeup macro shots
We enjoyed using this surprisingly compact large sensor camera because of its sharp and responsive tilting touchscreen and an intuitive interface that brings up only the relevant camera settings when you press the Q button. There's no doubt that an electr...
The G7 X II is an easy and enjoyable camera to use, while the manual controls will appeal to enthusiasts. The fact that you can shoot in raw format is very useful when you're trying to claw back some detail in high-ISO shots
If you're familiar with DSLRs you'll probably find that you miss having a viewfinder. While it seems likely that the viewfinder option was rejected because it would increase the camera's size, both Panasonic and Sony have found ways to include one on thei
Canon has once again produced a very appealing G-series camera – it's a high-performing compact, which makes it both a good alternative for when using your DSLR isn't practical, and a great camera in its own right.If you're an existing Canon user the bigg...

Lovely chunky build, Photos are bang on the money, Reasonable zoom
No viewfinder, No 4K video, More feature-packed rivals at this price
It's a tough old time for compact cameras. Canon's G7 X Mark II is good at pretty much everything, yet it's still not the kind of device you should buy no questions asked. The competition at this kind of price is absolutely ferocious. For sheer point-and...
Responsive touchscreen, Pleasing JPEGS straight out of the camera, Sound AF system with effective focus tracking
Lack of built-in viewfinder may discourage some people, Soft results at wider focal lengths, Video capture limited to full HD
When the Canon PowerShot G7 X was released, it didnt have much in the way of competition. Now, the idea of a pocketable camera furnished with a 1in or Micro Four Thirds sensor, together with raw shooting and plenty of manual control, is a bit less specia...
Large sensor, Wide aperture lens, Touch-sensitive screen, Wi-Fi
Lack of viewfinder, Short zoom, Macro focusing is tricky
Canon G7X Mark II – Performance and AF Generally speaking, I'm pretty pleased with the G7X II's focusing capability. It locks onto most subjects quickly, slowing down a little only if the light is low. It maintains a quick focusing speed at the furthest r...
