Packing a powerful 1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor into a pocket-friendly size, it's powered by the DIGIC 7 Image Processor for fast operation and features built-in Bluetooth connectivity for easy sharing. With the PowerShot G9 X Mark II, it's easy to capture the precious times of your life in a stylishly stunning way. &#149; 1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel High-sensitivity CMOS Sensor &#149; DIGIC 7 Image Processor &#149; Ultra-slim, Lightweight and Pocket-size Camera &#149; Built-in Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth &#149; Bright f/2.0 (W) - f/4.9 (T), 3x Optical Zoom Lens (28-84mm) &#149; 3.0" Touch Panel LCD &#149; Full HD, Dynamic IS and Time-Lapse Movie Video Functions &#149; Continuous Shooting Speeds of up to 8.2 fps &#149; Picture Style Function &#149; In-camera RAW Conversion  Slim and Stylish The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera is slim, stylish, can fit in your pocket and help you take great photos. Its modern design comes in silver or black and its ergonomic construction helps ensure it remains comfortable in your hand, even while recording long videos. Easy to hold and easy to carry, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II helps ensure you're ready to capture that unforgettable moment anytime and almost anywhere you go.  1.0" CMOS Sensor At 1.0-inch, the image sensor on the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera is larger than most other compact cameras. This allows it to capture a greater range of light, so bright areas of the image can be more detailed and less likely to be washed or blown out. With low-light scenes, an ISO range of 125-12800 lets you use fast shutter speeds to help keep photos sharp and virtually unaffected by camera shake.  Canon 28-84mm f/2.0-4.9 Lens The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera has a 3x Optical Zoom lens conveniently designed to help you capture wide shots like a big party scene or enable you to zoom in and get a wonderful close-up. The fast aperture goes as low as f/2.0, meaning it's possible to see the subject and take clear photos in low light. Combined with Intelligent IS image stabilization, it helps to ensure virtually shake-free images.  The DIGIC 7 Image Processor DIGIC 7 Image Processor takes the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera to the next level with fast operation and high image quality, even in low light. It helps speed up start-up time, operation time and continuous shooting, while providing noise reduction even at high ISO settings to help capture sharp, detailed images in virtually any lighting situation. Enhanced tracking and detection capabilities help lock onto your subject throughout the action, from improved face tracking to help keep your subject in focus, to Dual Sensing IS which helps minimize blur caused by camera shake and body movement. This results in clear, precise pictures even at slow shutter speeds. Providing high detail, low noise and fast, accurate tracking, the DIGIC 7 Image Processor helps deliver high-quality photos and videos.  Built-in Bluetooth pairing lets you easily connect to and remotely control the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera from compatible smartphones using the free Canon Camera Connect app. After the initial pairing, you can set the camera to automatically connect, then control camera operations remotely. You can also establish a direct Wi-Fi connection to use your phone as a viewfinder.  Built-in Wi-Fi/NFC With built-in Wi-Fi/NFC and Canon's universal Camera Connect app, the camera makes it easy to share pictures when you want, where you want. It can connect directly to other Wi-Fi enabled cameras, compatible mobile devices, PictBridge (Wireless LAN) certified printers and select social networking sites. Additionally, with compatible Android devices and the optional Canon Connect Station CS100, connection is as simple as tapping the devices together. The options are endless: share and transfer images and video right away from almost anywhere you go and even shoot remotely from your smartphone or tablet.  High-end HD Video Capabilities You can customize the camera's spectacular 1080p Full HD video capture to your needs with multiple frame rate options including cinematic 24p, natural 30p and super smooth 60p, plus MP4 format for easy sharing on your mobile devices. Dynamic IS significantly reduces shaking - even if you shoot while running or walking backward. Manual controls (Av, Tv and ISO) can be set prior to and during shooting for full creative expression. Manual Focus is also available, letting you alternate focus between subjects, for example. For additional creative options, a Time-Lapse Movie function lets you condense long stretches of time into short, incredible videos with high resolution and lifelike clarity.  Control Ring & UI Sometimes the best moments happen fast and being able to quickly dial in the exact setting you want could be the difference between a great shot and an unforgettable one. With a simple twist, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera's Control Ring lets you adjust ISO, aspect ratio, aperture, shutter speed, picture modes and more, even when in Manual mode and Manual Movie mode. Easy to set up and use, the Control Ring helps you change settings to decide how you want the photo to look, as fast as life happens.  In-camera RAW Conversion The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera's powerful in-camera RAW conversion lets you adjust multiple aspects of an image after you capture it, without a computer. You can change settings from brightness to white balance to Picture Style and more. When you're satisfied with the results, you can switch between the original and adjusted image to check your work, then save the result as a JPEG for later use.

$20 off a $449.99 camera is NOT a sale.  It would have been nice to save some more money on this camera especially around the holidays.  It appears as though all the approved dealers follow the lead of Canon and do not offer any sales as well.

A "Sale" would help

Nice little camera to take along as a backup when I fly and don't have a lot of extra room...

Great little camera

Great Service Great  Great Service !!!!!!!

It takes a fine picture, but reviewing and downloading are difficult, and deleting unwanted shots is more than difficult, including sparse directions in the user's manual.

Canon compact camera

Great little backpack camera that provides wonderful photographs from close ups of wildflowers to mountain vistas. Great videos as well and transfers to my I-Pad are easy and quick. The only camera needed on long hikes where space and weight are at a premium.  Take along an extra battery to keep going between stops.

This is the one camera a backpacker needs.

Love the power it has for such a small camera. The compactness and retro-inspired look are terrific, and the leather like texture gives it a nice grip.

A lot of power in a small package

Great Camera. I purchased for a trip to Hawaii. I wanted a better camera than my iPhone X. It was worth the purchase. The 1 inch light sensor worked well in low light. The best feature was the ability to shoot in several picture taking modes. I used Auto, AV and Manual the most. This camera took excellent pictures and was fun to use. I recommend purchasing and using ahead of time to get back into a photographers frame of mind. I did this and had no problems. One setting was a little different. It is right next to Auto. Every picture taken in that mode is made into a vignette type slide show. I didn't expect this as the Canon You Tube camera instruction video said this mode gave the photographer the ability to let the camera decide wether it would be in portrait mode or landscape. I went with it on the first day and was "rewarded" with a "slide show". Anyway, the only thing I would hold against this camera and the reason for only four stars is because sometimes the touch screen was hard to see in bright sunlight.

Nice Camera for travel or everyday

easy to use, the 1 inch sensor helps the image quality.

nice upgrade from S 120

I wanted a small option with manual control and wifi

when I'm not working

nice small camera but many settings to work through

nice camera

Touch screen is not as convenient as the buttons & knobs on my previous Canon S110. Resolution is much improved. This replacement for my old camera seems like a mixed blessing.

Slow demise of the conventional pocket camera

Image quality at web size enlargement is excellent and it can do all kinds of neat tricks if you can figure out how.  The size is perfect for a normal pocket or purse.  It is quick to start up and the battery life is good. The display is good unless you are in bright sunlight and then it can be almost unusable.  You can boost the screen brightness and it helps.  If you are accustomed only to cell phone cameras you probably won't mind the lack of a viewfinder.  My major complaint is that the user interface in general is fiddly and complicated.  For example, there is way too much menu diving and many things are not intuitive to use.  Scrolling through items with the zoom switch is difficult to do accurately, it goes too fast.  The touchscreen icons are very small and you can't enlarge them.  There is no "garbage can" icon or dedicated "trash" button to erase a photo.  The button labels are hard to read. It simply isn't easy to take advantage of all the great features and it can be frustrating to try to make it do what you want, even in the least complicated AUTO mode.  There are probably workarounds for some of my complaints, and it would probably be a lot easier if I used it every day and really got to know all the ins and outs, but I don't use it regularly and would prefer a much more intuitive interface.

Good photos and impressive features but fiddly to use

Wow. It's small but takes great pictures and videos. Fit in the palm of your hand!

Small, but what a beauty!

Great for general purpose shooting and for studies with the idea of returning for higher quality images with better gear.  Great image quality but if they could get a g7 lens in it or whatever fuji uses in the z100 it would be ideal

love it

Great little camera.  I rarely leave home without it in a small camera bag that attaches nicely to my belt.  So light, I never feel the weight.  Very good picture quality, but I do run all my photos through Photoshop Elements.  Plus I also shoot JPEG + RAW, and process the RAW photos.

Great Lightweight Camera

This is a nice camera but doesn't have a viewfinder.  Being that I use Canon EOS cameras this was a bit difficult for me.  So, I returned it and ordered a different camera.

NIce camera but not for me

I lost my G15 which was my "take-anywhere", "grab the unexpected shot" camera.   After several days of shopping online I called Canon and then Adorama to make sure the G9X Mark II would meet my cost and performance needs.  It does both well.  Representatives at both arrived at the same conclusion - the G9X II is durable, compact, and is easy to operate.

Well Pleased with G9X Mark II and with Adorama

I bought this camera to replace my EOS20D for travel. Really love the ability to stamp locations via the phone interface software.

Great Compact Camera

Great color AND FOR A POINT AND SHOT CAMERA, YES WOULD RECOMMEND.

After extensive research. I bought the Powershot G9X. I’m a beginner photographer and I wanted something light for my travels. I’ve had the camera for a week and I love just how small it is. The touchscreen is accurate and the quality of my shots are splendid. I’m still learning all the advance features but I’m very pleased with my purchase

Beautiful and compact

For her birthday I wanted to replace her 10 year old Nikon.  The camera had to be very small, light, but with the latest features.  This Canon, with a sensor large for a compact, a touch screen, and good video, was perfect.  She even loves the look of it.

The Right Gift for My Mother

I bought this camera to replace my cameras of old that are just too much weight.  I was very pleased with the size and lightness of the PowerShot G9 X Mark II.  Haven't used the WiFi feature yet but am glad I will have that ability.

Great for travel

Bought about two weeks ago. Small but pics are good.  Small learning curve with this camera.

Very nice pocket camera. Only thing wrong that the videos are mp4.

Nice

I love the way I can touch the screen and take a photo.  The clarity of the photos is amazing.  I am looking forward to using WiFi to transfer my photos to my friends.

Amazing

Canon G9X II is a worthy successor to the S120.  Images are excellent.  The small package is pocketable, and it has excellent controls for those time you want control and the program modes are great too.  Built in flash is more than adequate at short distances and for the price, outshines the other brands older models including Lumux and Sony.

Canon G9X Mark II

Bought this camera for my wife and she loves it. It is very intuitive and takes great pictures. It integrates seamlessly with her iPhone through the Canon app so she can take great pictures and share them with friends and family.  

I did my research and I am very happy

Great step up from using the phone

Didn't purchase it for its optical zoom - have an SLR for that. The G9 X is light weight, small, and packed with useful features that are very easy to access. Easy to quickly pull out of a pocket or backpack.

Exactly what I expected

This is the pocket camera built for night time, low light, or indoor evening photography.  It's got a huge 1" image sensor that soaks up the light and the M setting has a 'bulb' setting that I don't believe any other pocket camera has.  I love going out at night and I want a pocket camera that won't weigh me down.  This thing is tiny but its always ready to catch those amazing moments that come up without warning.  No other pocket camera has the image capture power for those types of shots.  Check out the shots I uploaded and read about each one so you can see for yourself what this camera can do.  Please note, that like all digital cameras, you need to hold the camera as still as you can and take lots of pictures because some shots are just not going to come out.  Taking more pictures means you have a greater chance of getting super fine auto focused pictures.

My night time / low light camera

Nice portable camera. it takes excellent photos. Everything is in focus and the image is really sharp.
