Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The optical zoom is 5x, which is not a huge range but not bad either. The digital zoom goes out to 20x, and i was really surprised by how good the image quality is - it produces very usable images at that range. The fast zoom lens has a wide opening t... Read More

With the fast 1. Megapixel camera, the pros outweigh the cons. The rubberized grip is fantastic. The camera is sharp with good color and very handy to carry in a belt pouch.

The canon eos 5d mark iii is a great camera for stills and video. It is very easy to control, from aperture/shutter to flash compensation. It shoots uncompressed raw, but at the same time features great settings for auto point and shoot. I normally us... Read More

The pop up viewfinder is better than expected. The viewfinder really helps when recoding in the public area. With an open pop-up view finder system, be careful of water.

This camera implements the usb-c power delivery standard. It also charges from the usb ports on the laptop. The official word from them is that you need to buy their $190 pd-e1 charger.

Cons

For the price of $899 it's not weather sealed, the zoom is only 5x, the photos are mediocre. Tiny tiny amount of moisture destroys it.

This is by far the best point-and-shoot i have ever owned.

Canon was very slow to focus, caused some missed shots, much noisier, and much less keeper rate.

The af just can't keep up - can't get iti've found the canon g5x ii to be a rather odd duck.

Price

I was originally put off by the price of this camera as it is not cheap.

I see now why it is priced higher, but it's still a commitment if you're on a budget.

I am leaving for europe in a few days and when i went to register the camera for warranty, i found out that this is not eligibl... Read More

All in all, the price for me is justified and it’s nice to see canon finally get a point and shoot to compete with mirrorless a... Read More

Even with a slower lens, the sony kicked the canon to the curb - no competition at all.

The sony's ability to focus in dim light was much better.
