Canon - PowerShot G9 X 20.2-Megapixel Digital Camera - Black

I brought this camera because I really wanted great pics for my Machu Picchu trip. Pictures came out amazing, definitely better than your average camera. The only down part of that I have not figured out how to take videos and pictures at the same time, so it might be more complicated that I thought. Also, flash is a bit tricky because you have to physically lift it to use the flash, not automatically. Love this camera.

I bought this because the low-light problems I find in my iPhone 6s. Not to mention because it is very pocketable. Battery life is very good as well. I bought an extra battery and I very rarely have to replace it.

I have a great dslr camera but when we are on road trips in the Vette or on the bike, I wanted something smaller but did not want to sacrifice picture quality. I LOVE this little camera! The pictures are crisp and bright. Only a 3X zoom, but the pictures are so clear, I can digitally zoom when needed and the pics are awesome.

The Canon Powershot G9x is Canon's best "pocketable" camera to date! Image quality is high, with the 1 inch sensor. Digital noise is low through ISO 800. Focus is fairly speedy, especially in good light, to catch kids and pets. Battery life is decent, though I would advise you to carry a spare battery. Movie quality is decent also. The value for what you get, compared to it's rival brands, is good. Give this camera a try, I think you'll like it ☺

When I first got my new Nexus 6P smartphone, I wavered between getting a real camera to take real pictures with, thinking that today's smartphone cameras are enough. However, once I got the Canon G9X, I realized that a real camera is still necessary. The quality of pictures and videos taken with the G9X far exceed anything taken with the Nexus 6P, and I realized that smartphone camera photos only seem better when viewed on the phone screen. Once transferred to a larger computer screen, the quality differences are apparent. I have no buyer's remorse and am so glad I didn't miss out getting this real camera.

I travel by motorcycle and wanted a camera with lots of control and features, but in a small package. The Cannon is perfect for the job. Better image quality than a smart phone, tons of flexibility and it fits in my shirt pocket. Nice overall design, too. Not inexpensive, but worth the price.

Great camera - glad I bought it. Very high quality pictures. I do miss the lack of viewfinder, though. I like to take very distant bird photos then zoom in to do ID. Without viewfinder this is hard to do, though when I do manage to photograph a bird using screen the results are still good. Biggest objection is lack of a written guide to the camera. It was a hassle to get online manual, and still don't know how to use many functions.

A portable and solid camera that gives away high image quality.....the best pocket camera I have had. The only weakness is it should have a F1.8-2.8 lens.
