    I had the Canon G7X III and the focuses was so unreliable. I'm so glad I was able to upgrade to this camera. I never have to worry about bad video or audio.

    While yes this is great for video content creators, it lacks for those who are looking to get this camera for images. There’s no flash, image settings are limited, and on top of that - the Wifi didn’t work when trying to send myself one photo. If you’re looking to only use this for vlogging then I say go for it. Otherwise, don’t waste your time.
