Great little pocketable camera
I bought the G9X as a more pocketable camera (compared to the 5D3 I already have) for when out and about. Although the image quality of the Canon 5D3 is phenomenal, I'm still really impressed by the images from this little camera.
Pros:
- Bright LCD
- Comfortable Controls
- Easy Setup
- Easy To Use
- Great Picture Quality
Cons:
- Short Battery Life

Like the G5 X launched at the same time, the G9 X has the same 20.2Mp 1-inch type back-illuminated CMOS sensor as the , which impressed us when we tested it back in 2014. Once again this sensor is coupled with Canon's Digic 6 processor and this combination enables a sensitivity range of ISO...
Pros:
- 1-inch type BSI sensor
- Small size
- Advanced controls
Cons:
- Limited focal length range
- No viewfinder

Canon G9X review
Canon's PowerShot G9X represents the continuing evolution of pocket cameras: small and smart like many of its predecessors, but crucially packing a larger 1in sensor. The sensor is the key here as it's three to four times larger than those in most phones and compact cameras, allowing the G9X to...
Pros:
- Smallest conventional camera with a 1in sensor, Very capable touch-screen
- Quick and easy to control, Full manual control over exposure and focus, Built-in Wifi with NFC and good smartphone control, USB charging in-camera but also supplied with AC charger
Cons:
- Basic 3x optical zoom
- A little soft at 28mm in corners, Lens focal ratio slows down at 84mm to f4.9, No viewfinder
- Screen doesn't tilt either, No in-camera panorama mode, Burst speed in RAW is very slow

Canon PowerShot G9 X review: Touching the void
On the evidence of the Canon PowerShot G9 X it's time to wave goodbye to the company's older, small-sensor PowerShot cameras. Why? Because the G9 X packs a large 1-inch sensor size into a slender body, making a good case to out-and-out replace models such as the Canon PowerShot S120.
Pros:
- Slim design and good looks
- capable autofocus system
- good image quality to ISO 1600
- dabbling with the future in touchscreen-based controls
Cons:
- The G7 X makes a lot more sense
- Auto ISO opts for high sensitivities
- limited zoom range and max aperture
- no tilt-angle screen
- odd shutter position
- no d-pad

Canon PowerShot G9 X review
It's every keen photographer's dream – a camera with a decent sized sensor that's still small enough to carry around everywhere. The G9 X has a 1-inch sensor, a comparatively new type that's four times larger than the 1/2.3-inch sensors in point-and-shoot cameras and more twice the size of the...

Smartphones have completely changed the photography world. They're convenient, fast, and user-friendly. And the increased competition has driven down prices so that DSLRs and mirrorless cameras are cheaper than they've ever been.
