  • At first glance, the G3 X may look like a quirky superzoom with a 600mm party trick, but dig a little deeper and you'll find a truly versatile camera. To have 600mm from such a diminutive body is amazing and it offers a genuine option for the wildlife fan...

  • Abstract:  The Canon PowerShot G3X measures 12cm wide, 8cm deep and 11cm from the screen to the front of the lens when closed however when fully zoomed this last figure increases to 17cm. So with that amount of optical zoom (25x) you will not be surprised that it we...

  • The G3 X includes 2015s must-have feature – a selfie screenWhen Canon first told us it was making a camera with a 1in sensor and 600mm equivalent zoom, it looked really exciting. Sadly, though, the G3 X manages to be rather less than the sum of its parts...

  • Just like the G1 X Mark II, the G3 X has a few handling faults that need to be addressed if it's to become a truly flawless expert compact. Nevertheless, Canon has pulled off a pretty impressive feat in equipping the G3 X with such a great technical featu...

  • Canon PowerShot G3 X – Performance and AF The Canon PowerShot G3 X aims for all-round versatility. It doesn't make any particularly bold claims on general performance. It'll shoot at a respectable 5.9fps when the focus is locked, but that slows down to 3...
