This camera has many convenient features, it makes beautiful professional pictures. Its more compact than other professional cameras and easy to take along anywhere

I'm a retired commercial photographer and video producer of 40 years. I wanted a compact camera for photo and video that would serve me well. Over the last 2+ years this small but mighty camera has given me everything I've asked it to do. Full auto, manual operations of all types and never a failure. I'm impressed. Delighted to have this camera with me wherever I go.

Thank you so much b&h❤️

I've had this camera for about a year now and have used it for outdoor photography on climbing and skiing trips where I need something that fits in my pocket. I'm not super camera savvy and so I find that 99% of the time, auto-shooting mode combined with some light Adobe Lightroom post-processing produces exactly the kind of images I'm after.

All the 1-star reviews have to do with it's lack of WiFi connectivity. This has nothing to do with the quality of the images produced so these reviews are stupid; I use a card reader and have had no issues. WiFi connectivity with my Mac does indeed not work, but with my iPhone it is seamless when the Canon app is downloaded. I prefer using the card reader anyway.

I purchased this compact Canon for travel to Japan. I have several full frame cameras including a Mark V and Mark IV along with 85, 24-75, 70-200 lenses, equipment that's very heavy. The GX7 Mark II has the focal range I wanted, the weight and the speed needed to capture the photos and video that I wanted. Focus worked well and the battery life worked for me. I purchased two additional batteries just in case, but never ran out of power during the day. Having the backups went well. I did purchase a larger wrist strap for comfort level and a screen protector for potential scratches since this is my view finder. Since I don't use a selfie stick, the location of the batery compartment was not an issue for me. Recording with sound can be a challenge in windy conditions, just place a wind muff by the built in mic. (not included). Once I uploaded the video the sound level was adequate and I could hear items much better than directly from the camera. The controls are easy to use same standard Canon controls I have on my full frame cameras. Touch screen is an added bonus, still getting aquainted with that since I am used to non-touch screen Canon Camera controls.

Although there is no viewfinder, I found using the screen worked well. I didn't miss the viewfinder and really enjoyed being able to angle some shots, selfies, etc. A lot of my shots were taken while on the move wth little time to compose them. Overall I found this to be an excellent purchse and add to my Canon equipment. Recomendations for improvement would be an extenal mic jack, move that battery compartment for those who use a selfie stick, add a more comfortable wrist strap. I researched several other brands and opted to purchase the G7X Mark II, even over the Mark III. Great little camera.

My first and probably favorite camera ever! It's small and compact but does a perfect job at taking pictures. I mainly use it for personal use for my social media and my photos have never looked better. There are tons of different settings you can use to make your photos look amazing you just have to play around with it a bit.

This camera takes stunning pictures and movies. I wanted a camera that was small enough to fit in my pocket, and that can deliver high quality images. I mostly use the camera in auto mode and have been extremely happy with the results. The battery lasts a long time as long as you don't use the Wi-Fi feature too much. All in all a great camera!

Very nice compact camera at a reasonable price. Replaced my venerable but aging PowerShot G15. Highly acceptable interior/low-light still imagery for travel without the weight, bulk and expense of a DSLR + f1.8 zoom lens. An optical viewfinder would be nice for bright outdoors, but not worth the extra cost and futzing for me.

This camera has been so easy to use. Took it whale watching and got some fantastic shots and video of whales breaching out of the water. Easy to use on auto but can also dial in settings as you need.

Excellent -- very light, travel companion camera. It takes great pictures even in the low light.
