Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II 1″ Compact Camera (2016)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II is an affordable 1″ compact camera. Introduced by Canon in 2016, it comes with a 1" sensor with 20 MP (5472 x 3648) resolution.
The camera has a poor battery life, and a second or third battery may be needed to get you through the day. One should note that the PowerShot G7 X Mark II has a 125 base ISO, which is not conducive to getting the cleanest images. The G7 X Mark II's 8.0 fps burst rate limits its use for certain types of photography, but it is hardly something that most photographers should worry about.
The PowerShot G7 X Mark II comes with 31 autofocus points. Last but not least, the camera can focus quite close to the subject.
