  • Key Specs
    • Image Sensor Size: 1” (13.2 x 8.8 mm)
    • Effective Pixels: 20.1 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • General
    • Brand: Canon
    • Model Number: 1718C001
    • Product Name: PowerShot G9 X Mark II 20.1-Megapixel Digital Camera
    • Color: Silver
    • Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Sensor Size: 1” (13.2 x 8.8 mm)
    • Image Resolution (Display): 5472 x 3648 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
    • Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
    • Digital Zoom: 4x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Optical Zoom: 3x (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
    • Image File Format(s): JPEG, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
  • Focus
    • Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
    • Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): false (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
  • Exposure Control
    • Shutter Speeds: 30-1/2000 sec. (all shooting modes); 1-1/2000 sec. (Auto mode); BULB (M mode only); 1/6 sec. minimum (Manual Movie mode) (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
    • Brightness Control: false (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
    • Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
    • Self Timer: true
    • Self-Timer Delay: 10 seconds
    • Shooting Modes: C, M, Av, Tv, P, Hybrid Auto, Auto, Portrait, Panning, Star Portrait, Star Nightscape, Star Trails, Star Time-Lapse Movie, Handheld Night Scene, High Dynamic Range, Fish-eye, Art Bold Effect, Water Painting, Time-Lapse Movie, iFrame Movie and more (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
    • Panorama Mode: false
    • White Balance Modes: Auto, Day Light, Shade, Cloudy, Tungsten, Fluorescent, Flash, Color Temperature, Custom (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
    • Effective Pixels: 20.1 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Lens
    • In-Lens Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
  • Flash
    • Flash Modes: Automatic, Fill-in, Off, Slow sync (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
    • Integrated Flash: true
  • Display
    • Display Type: LCD
    • Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
    • Screen Resolution: 1.04 million dots (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
    • Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
    • Varying Angle Screen: false (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)

Q: Can you use an external mic with this camera?

A: I have not been able to find an external microphone port on this camera.

Q: What's the difference between this camera and the Canon - PowerShot G9 X 20.2-Megapixel Digital Camera ?

A: Most of the differences between the original Canon PowerShot G9X vs the newer mark II are subtle, e.g. the newer camera has better bluetooth connectivity options (such as transferring pictures directly to your cell phone). However, one of the bigger differences between the two cameras is the processor. The G9X mark II has a newer, more powerful Digic 7 processor. This facilitates quite a few improvements, including a higher continuous shooting rate and better focus tracking. This also makes a big difference for those interested in shooting in the RAW picture format. Otherwise, both cameras are quite similar.

Q: Does the camera come with an SD card, or should I buy a separate one?

A: It does not come with a card. Get at least a 16GB.

Q: Does this camera record videos, and if so, how’s the sound quality?

A: Yes, it does record videos. They are excellent, and the sound quality is excellent on mine.

Q: Does the camera comes with clear protection film over the screen?

A: No. However, you can purchase clear protective film and cut it to size.

Q: does the camera have a viewfinder

A: No, it does not. You use the LCD touchscreen.
