Canon PowerShot G9X
A change in how review loans are authorised is the reason that there has been an interregnum since the last review from me. Hopefully now I can get back to telling you about the latest offerings from this iconic name in cameras and more.

Canon G9X
The Canon G9X is the smallest 1-inch sensor camera to date. Slip it in a pocket and you can forget it's even there, but pull it out and you have the great image quality of a 1-inch sensor on tap.
Pros:
- Smallest 1-inch sensor camera available
- Slips in a pants pocket almost unnoticed
- Bright lens at wide-angle
- Great image quality
- Swift 6.5 fps JPEG burst shooting
- Intuitive touch-screen control
- In-camera Wi-Fi gets images onto your phone easily
Cons:
- Limited 3x zoom range
- Tighter wide-angle than competitors
- JPEG buffer limited to 10 frames
- very slow bracketing / raw burst shooting
- Touch-screen menus take lots of tapping
- Poor battery life

While I like the G7X better overall for its control layout, the G9X is a great camera for the price and an excellent upgrade option for people using the Powershot S120. IMAGE QUALITY: I find nothing to complain about regarding lens sharpness, detail capture, or ISO performance on this camera.

Truly pocketable
I picked up the G9X for the benefit of having a truly pocketable camera with a 1 sensor and Canon color. In comparison to cameras like the G7X or the Sony RX100 series, this camera isn't as heavy/bulky as they are. While those can fit in your pocket, they're still too thick to really be pocktable.

Takes great photos but limited zoom range. close up outstanding. Buttons in wrong place.

Great camera, good purchase.
I am strictly a point and shoot person and this camera exceeded my expectations. I took many photos in Iceland figuring that I would delete the bad ones, there were no bad ones (unless I had my finger in the way or my framing was off).

Canon PowerShot G9 X
Pursuing the goal of a genuinely pocketable camera with high resolution and superior performance to smart-phones and similarly-sized compact digicams, Canon's PowerShot G9 X competes head-to-head against Sony's RX100 cameras.

Bought a new camera a bit in panic days before a long trip. Could not pull with my gigantic SLR and realized that my old small camera no longer measure up to what I want for results. Must say that I am pleasantly surprised by this Canon camera! Small and agile, and still takes great pictures.
