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.

I was tired of vacation pictures coming out blurry from my old camera or from my phone camera, and wanted a high end camera that would still fit in my pocket. A friend of mine who is into photography recommended this camera, and after comparing it to a few other models, I bought it. I know it is an expensive point and shoot camera but it is worth the money.

I've had this camera for 8 days before I've returned it.
It is indeed good camera to point-n-shoot (even at night)
This camera takes delay on changing focus.
Some of my pictures were out of focus and I couldn't justify spending 400+tax for something that is not much better than smartphone camera. (Except night shoots)
Beside of this issue, I just love this camera design and the color too!

Excellent Pocketable Camera

My objective was a small camera that would deliver high quality photos at a reasonable price. I was able to get a super deal, lower than the sale price, so I bought the camera but even at the $449 price, it is still reasonable for a 1 inch sensor camera. With the great deal, I bought a 3 year extended warranty with accident protection and an extra battery. I also picked up a Lowerpro case which is just slightly bigger than the camera so it is still pockeable. I am an active amateur photographer but can't always bring my Canon SLR. I always like to have a camera with me besides my cell phone. My iPhone does a great job but there are times when you want or need a regular camera. This is the niche of the Canon 9GX. I was hesitant at first because many functions are accessible by touchscreen exclusively but it has not been a problem and in some ways it is easier to access the controls.
The low light performance is excellent and is a rather bright lens at f2.8 but as you zoom in that does change. The photos are very sharp, good color accuracy, and vibrant. The videos are also excellent. I use mainly the P mode but I do use Shutter Priority and Aperture Priority every so often to achieve certain effects, For example, when photographing water such as a fountain, or stream and want to emphasis slow motion or stop motion I will set the shutter speed. I will use Aperture Priority to control depth of field. However, the camera does a good job of depth of field.
This camera in a small form factor gives you full manual control. The camera does not have a viewfinder or articulating screen which would have been an asset. I have had no trouble seeing the screen in bright sunlight and have also taken selfies as well.
I highly recommend this camera. It delivers. If i had bought a bigger or heavier camera or more expensive that was not pocketable....it would be sitting home a lot.
I trusted this camera for my daughter' s wedding and small grandkids and I have gotten superior results. The upgrade to this is the Canon G7X Mark ii which is excellent, but still no viewfinder but it will set you back a few hundred dollars more and is bigger and heavier. I have used the camera too and I love it. It does edge out the Canon G9X but the G9X is excellent too. I also wanted an everyday camera that i could throw in my bag and by the time I added extended warranty and accessories to the G 7X Mark ii it would cost 1000 dollars and i could not justify that for an everyday camera. That is when I decided on the G9X which takes excellent photos and is smaller and lighter.The camera has a 3X zoom ratio which is adequate for everyday photography. I have used the digital zoom and was very surprised at the great results. I have other cameras with great zoom capabilty so it was not an issue for me.
Read the reviews which are excellent and go for it !

I read all the reviews & everyone gave excellent reviews. I thought the camera will take great pics, just point n shoot. Not the case, not clear, sometimes blurred even when outside in good lighting. Had a older canon powershot n was great, took great crisp photos but broken. This was a more expensive camera, thought it would be better. Will return camera, not worth the money, quite expensive.

Bought this for my daughter in law and she used it a couple times and the lense cover won't open all the way anymore. Called Best Buy and Geek guy said most likely not under warranty. We had it less than 30 days. Now I will have to send it to Canobn
