The PowerShot G7 X is a superb little camera aimed at serious photographers. With a large 1in sensor, a fast all-purpose zoom lens, a touch & tilt 3in LCD, and Wi-Fi and NFC built in, it's a powerful bit of kit considering its small size. Advanced feature...
Abstract: The Canon website says ‘DSLR-like creativity in a connected large sensor compact' which seems to sum up this powerful unit.It is small enough to fit in your pocket or purse at 10.5x6.5x4cm the last figure increase to 8cm when fully zoomed. It is somewhat...

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...

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...

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...

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...
