Blending notable imaging qualities with refined handling, the PowerShot G7 X Mark II Digital Camera from Canon is a compact point-and-shoot characterized by its large feature-set. Utilizing a 20.1MP 1" CMOS sensor and DIGIC 7 image processor, this camera offers a maximum ISO 12800 in Program mode, and achieves smooth image quality with reduced noise when working in low-light conditions. Additionally, it is also capable of recording stills at up to 8 fps as well as Full HD 1080p60 video. Complementing the sensor and processor combination is a versatile 4.2x zoom lens, which provides a 24-100mm equivalent focal length range, covering wide-angle to short-telephoto perspectives. A fast f/1.8-f/2.8 maximum aperture maintains consistent performance throughout the zoom range and also benefits working in difficult lighting conditions. The lens design is surrounded by a familiar control ring that offers intuitive control over settings, and a large 3.0" 1.04m-dot tilting touchscreen LCD provides a natural means for composing imagery from a variety of shooting angles. Additionally, the G7 X Mark II also features built-in Wi-Fi with NFC for wireless sharing of imagery to smartphones or tablets, as well as remote camera control from linked mobile devices.

Delivering notable image quality in a variety of situations, a 20.1MP 1" CMOS sensor and DIGIC 7 image processor combine to create the Canon HS SYSTEM, which avails clean, clear imagery with minimal noise and a wide dynamic range, with a top expanded sensitivity to ISO 12800. The sensor and processor also avail the ability to shoot raw or JPEG files at up to 8 fps or record Full HD 1080p60 video in the MP4 format with stereo sound.

In addition to benefitting image quality, the DIGIC 7 processor also enhances focusing speeds and tracking capabilities for maintaining sharp focus on moving subjects, even in low light and low contrast situations. Additionally, the processor also enables Dual Sensing IS that interprets data from imagery in order to intelligently reduce blur caused by camera shake.

A built-in 4.2x optical zoom lens provides a versatile 24-100mm equivalent focal length range, and features a bright f/1.8-f/2.8 maximum aperture range to benefit working in difficult lighting conditions throughout the zoom range. This fast maximum aperture also teams up with a nine-blade diaphragm to produce a smooth bokeh quality when using selective focus techniques. Additionally, a Super Spectra Coating has been applied to individual lens elements to noticeably reduce lens flare and ghosting when shooting in strong lighting conditions.

An Intelligent IS image stabilization system is also incorporated into the lens design to minimize the appearance of camera shake for a variety of shooting scenarios:

• Normal IS: Corrects for a wide variety of camera movement types when shooting stills.

• Panning IS: Intended for use when making tracking shots, this setting ensures that IS will not interfere with desired lateral camera movements.

• Macro (Hybrid) IS: Used for both stills and video recording, this setting corrects for shift-type camera shake that is common when photographing close-up subjects. It also compensates for motion blur associated with recording video while walking.

• Tripod: Image stabilization is deactivated when shooting stills atop a tripod.

• Dynamic IS: This setting is effective when recording video using wider focal lengths and simultaneously walking or moving.

• Powered IS: Ideally suited for shooting video with telephoto focal lengths, this mode compensates for the camera movements that become more apparent with greater zoom magnifications.

• Active Tripod IS: Unlike the stills tripod mode, this video-specific tripod mode compensates for slight amounts of shake that can be caused when recording movies from a tripod.

• A sleek, compact profile incorporates a large 3.0" 1.04m-dot touchscreen LCD that features a 180° upward, 45° downward tilting design to support taking selfies or working from low shooting angles.

• A manual control ring surrounds the lens for intuitive control over select camera and exposure settings. The ring can also be set to have clicked intervals, for tactile recognition of settings changes, or can be de-clicked for smooth, quiet transitions between adjustments.

• Built-in Wi-Fi with NFC allows you to wirelessly share your photos and movies with a linked smartphone or tablet as well as remotely control the camera from the mobile device by using the Camera Connect app.

• Picture Style affords in-camera control over the color, contrast, and sharpness of imagery.

• In-camera raw file conversions let you preview and apply adjustments to files without needing to process the files on a computer.

• A Time-Lapse Movie function automatically compiles sequentially-recorded images taken at predetermined intervals and composites them into a seamless movie file for smooth playback.

• A dedicated Panning function can lock onto an intended subject and, using image stabilization, automatically adjust the shutter speed to render a sharp moving subject set against a blurred background.

Q: 1. I need a completely silent shutter. Can this shoot completely silently like the RX100's Silent Electronic Shutter or is there always some sort of click? Is it soft enough that someone sitting next to me in a theater wouldn't hear it when continuous shooting?

A: You can turn off sounds while holding the down arrow on the dial. You can also do this by going to the menu and choosing the Mute option on the third settings tab.

Q: 3. does this camera have manual focus?

A: Yes, this camera is capable of manual focus.

Q: 4. How is the viewing on LCD screen in sunlight?

A: It is decent. The TFT LCD design allows the LCD screen to be bright and have high contrast, and the glass used is designed to reduce glare. However, if the LCD screen is in direct sunlight (such as if the sun is directly behind you), it may reduce the brightness. However, as the LCD screen is a multi-angle screen, it is easy to re-position the LCD screen to a slightly different angle for easier viewing in this condition.

Q: 5. Does the camera come with a battery charger? How does the battery charge?

A: Yes, the camera comes with a battery charger. The charger has flip-out prongs on the bottom that plug into your wall outlet.

Q: 6. Is the microphone on this camera located on the top or on the front of the unit?

A: The Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II Digital Camera has two (2) microphones for recording stereo sound, located on the top of the camera between the POWER ON/OFF Button and the built-in pop-up flash.

Q: 7. what is the maximum f-stop?

A: The G7 X Mark II has a variable f-stop of 1.8 (wide) - 2.8 (telephoto) maximum aperture opening, with f11 as the minimum aperture.

Q: 8. Does it have a date stamp feature?

A: Looking in the pdf version of the manual and my doing a search for date and date stamp , I only found date for purposes of setting it and thus recording it correctly on the photo's megadata, but not on the actual image. The answer is no, it does not have a date-stamp feature.

Q: 9. I would like to know the minimum focusing distance in Macro mode at 100mm focal length. Is it 5cm or or 50 cm?

A: The Canon G7X in macro on 100mm would be able to focus as close as 1.64' (50 cm).

Q: 10. Is this camera made in Japan?
