Everything Specs
We all want a compact digital camera with lots of possibilities and top-notch video and image quality, and sure; Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II is one of these cameras, with few downsides on it. For example, the maximum video resolution here is 1920x1080p, which is underwhelming for this price. Also, Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II completely lacks any kind of Viewfinder; a pity! The image quality, however, is stellar and the maximum image resolution is 5472 x 3072 pixels, which is respectable for this price point.
Design-wise, Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II offers a beautiful design, although it’s almost completely made of plastic, which means that it can slip out of your hands if they are sweaty. This shouldn’t be a problem because the camera is really compact and with its 319g weight, it can easily fit in your pocket and you can use it with one hand, without a problem.

I was interested in photography when my mother bought me the brand new Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II. I imediatelly fell in love with it because it looks nice and take nice photos at 5472x3072p resolution, which are crystal-clear and sharp. The 1080p videos are fine, but shutter speed could be a little higher. Overall, a great camera.
