Should You Buy The Canon G7X Mark II in 2024
Просмотров 3,7 тыс.4 месяца назад
It seems like most of the big brands have given up on point and shoot cameras. Canon pushed out the G7X MIII and the build quality is a downgrade from the Mark II and somehow they screwed up the autofocus. Sony seems like the only one who is really in the game. The Canon g7X mark II was my go to daily driver and after I destroyed it I needed to replace it. The options are currently slim and I r...

The Olympus mju / Stylus captured so many memories for me in the 90's. Just a new to me one so I can start building up my photo albums again. I highly recommend this camera. It served me well back in the day and it's taking great photos now. It has stood the test of time. This one is the 35mm F3.5 version. I like the compact simplicity of this camera.

I love my G7X Mark II and wanted to vlog more with it. Since it is so small and easy to use it makes vlogging really easy. I didn't realize how much this camera meant to me until I broke it and had to order a new one. I looked at the options and there are not many compact point and shoot cameras made for vlogging with good autofocus. The internal microphone is actually pretty good, however I pr...
Sony ZV-1 Initial Thoughts

Grabbed some clips on a work weekend to see what this little beast can do. There are not that many vlogging cameras out there these days. Autofocus is important with these little cameras because manual focus on these little guys is usually not optimal or even possible. The ZV-1 checks a lot of boxes.

Canon EFS 18-135mm STM - South Ponto

I was looking for a stabilized lens for my Canon EOS R and picked up the EFS 18-135mm on ebay. For run and gun vlogging I like it. This was the first time I used this lens and either it was dirty or there is dust in the lens because there are some very obvious imperfections. I need to test again to be sure.

What wire are you using to connect the mini ride mic to the camera? The plug ins are not the same
In all cases the microphones are connected to an external recorder. They are not connected to the camera at all. The G7X MII does not have a mic. jack so you can't connect an external mic to this camera. My apologies if my video is confusing. This is really a video on how to use an external recording set up with the camera so you can improve audio quality.
I want a camera for professional photography, videography and content creation/vlogging so it needs to also have front camera mirroring capabilities. I need clean cut quality for visual and audio. What would you recommend?
Wow! That's a loaded question. What is your budget and what kind of photography will you be shooting most of the time?
Awesome thanks so much!!!
@@isobelledger Anytime. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@jz_glass Very welcome :D
Had my G7X Mark II for years, but I've never really tried to use it 'properly'. Would you be interested in making a video about how you have your settings for film vs photography on the G7X Mark II?
@@isobelledger That’s a great suggestion. I’ll do that. Thanks.
@@jz_glass looking forward to seeing it!! :D
Hi! do you recommend any places to buy the Cannon G7x where it’s not super pricey ?
@@Daniflicks-bn1hk Not at the moment. I overpaid for mine.
@@jz_glass where at !?
@@Daniflicks-bn1hk I bought mine on eBay from a seller in Japan. Almost freaked out when I turned it on and the menu was in Japanese. Took a little RUclips research to switch to English.
So how do you hook up the mic if the camera doesn't have a mic jack?
You don't hook the mic up to the camera. You hook the mic up to the recorder. Basically an external recorder setup.
ehm
Thanks for this. I found the Canon site very confusing with little direction which LUTs were for what camera and had about given up on using Cinema mode altogether. Since watching your vid I’ve focused on the LUT you described and it appears to work reasonably well, but I’m not sure whether the 100’s codec makes CLog superior to WDR. There seems to be a mix of channels saying only use CLog, others saying it’s too hard to reliably get great footage,l and only use WDR, and others using 3rd party profiles that are graded differently (ie OwlBot). Curious if you have settled on using CLog most of the time or found another profile and LUT more desirable for your work.
@@Roger-oz2ct For daily shooting at work I like wide dr. I get a great consistent outcome and I don’t really have to do much if anything in post. I only have one C100 so I use standard in my multicam shots where I need quick turnaround. I don’t really like standard personally. If I have a personal project I like to play with clog. I love the clog look but I don’t really need it for work to get a solid outcome. It’s definitely a very different look than wide dr.
@@jz_glass I find WDR gives good results but the CLog seems to give more lifelike colors in the skin if you get exposure right. If you miss it by much it looks pretty bad. Kinda high stakes visual poker. If the EVF had waveforms, it might help, but setting and exposing zebras @ 70 and backing of 1-2 clicks usually works. Multiple faces, movement, skies….make it a bit harder. I use Canon 35mm f2.8 efs Macro with face tracking for heads; Tokina 11-16 for ultra wide; Sigma 18-35 for when I’m behind the camera and have planned shots where I can focus; and the Canon 18-135 efs for convenience or when a long lens is needed and the scene has decent lighting.
That’s really disappointing. This camera would be the solution of what I’m looking for if it had fantastic auto focus. I want to shoot sports photography which requires flawless AF and continuous shutter. I want to keep small and light but it keeps on looking like I’m going to have to go with more advanced interchangeable lens systems despite heavier weight and bulk.
Yeah I’m really bummed. I love the Canon look. Not much out there in the point and shoot arena with good autofocus. I re-purchased the markII. I shot a lot of wrestling with it but I don’t think it has the distance for field sports.
Have had this camera in the closet for a while but haven't really used it much. Now I need to beat my budy who made an amazing family vacation video compilation with his gopro. You've convinced me to bring this, we leave for Japan tomorrow! Thanks.
That’s what I’m talking about about brother!
Thank you. You saved me some money. I'm a Darran Alf fan and he retired his Mark 11 for a Mark 111 bought for him by his cycling fans. I got my hands on an unused Canon G7X Mark 11. I'm sticking to that. Good luck to you. Bye for now. PS.. I've subscribed and liked this vlog.
There is nothing like the mark 11. Mine is being repaired and I shot a camping trip with the Sony ZV-1 that we use in the office for BTS. Skin tones were weird, the photos just seemed to be missing something. This experience cemented for me that the Mark II is a special camera and my number 1 choice for documenting my life.

What camera are you using to film?
An old LUMIX GH5 with Panasonic 12-35mm zoom. Rode shotgun mic.
Just scored a LNIB markii earlier on Facebook for $50 under retail which to me is a steal when most post people are trying to fetch $800-1000 for this damn camera. Like you stated at the end of the video I think the biggest factor when deciding to buy this camera was the Classic Canon color science/film like softness look on the stills (which I happen to like) and ease of use/overall form factor compared to my EOS-R with the ‘holy trinity’.
There is nothing like that canon look.
Thx!
How do you use your phone with the G7 for audio
You can connect various microphones to your iPhone. In particular the rode smart lav. And record audio on your iPhone.
What film do you use?
Is this a second G7X II which you bought after the 1st one got damaged?
I've heard that the Sony RX100 vii is the best of the point and shoots, 24-200 compatible lens and features galore but pricey. I'm trying to get for travel but this one is also on backorder everywhere
I seriously considered that camera. A little pricey but the longest zoom in it's class. I can't remember why I didn't move forward on that one. I think it was minor and I was splitting hairs. That's a great camera.
Appreciate you sharing your experience and comments about the Canon & Sony cameras. I'm curious what you used to film this video? It looks very good!
Thanks. Shot on my iphone. Literally pulled over on the way to the office.
Is it worth it in terms of photos? especially landscape, street, and people
Photos are fine. Still feels like half a camera to me. But if photo is pretty much your thing it will perform well.
What setting do I put the camera on pls
You can shoot manual or on auto it doesn't really matter because you are recording to an external recorder. You will need to sync the external audio with the video recording in your editing software like adobe premier pro. Not sure if I answered your question. Let me know.
I‘ve been debating between getting the ZV1 II and G7X Mark II. I want to mainly do vlogging, but I would also love to do some photography sometimes and I think the flash is missing in the ZV1. Can you say something about photography with the ZV1? Which camera would you suggest?
The ZV1 II is a better vlogging camera due to the mic jack and the image quality has that modern Sony look. It takes great pics for a point and shoot but no flash. You can get away with no flash unless you are in low light situations a lot. Then the flash is a game changer. You can still get great photos indoors, it's just that there is a point when you just need a flash. If those situations are not frequent for you then go with the Sony for vlogging. I think in the long run you will have fewer limitations with audio for video. I use my ZV1 at work for bts photo and video. I keep an external mic on it all the time. I don't really need a flash for this scenario. For work I go with the ZV1 all day long. It's my grab and go camera. That being said for my personal life I love my G7XII. It's my every day carry and I document all of my family and outdoor adventure trips with it. The mic is plenty good for this in my opinion. I do use the flash quite a bit as we maybe in a dark restaurant or at a theme park in the evening. If my family or friends are backlit by the sun I pop the flash. Honestly I am torn between the two and at the moment if I had to pic one I lean towards the Sony because the G7X II is getting long in the tooth, however if you logged the number of photos and video hours on each camera I grab my G7X II a lot more. I think a lot of that has to do with familiarity, my muscle memory shooting manual with the G7XII is much better but I am getting quicker with the Sony with more use. I need to use the Sony more this year and I will have more confidence in choosing one over the other. Logically I like the Sony better but practically I use the Canon more.
It sucks that zv1 doesn't have the flushlight tho
So much! really hamstrings the ZV-1 for photos. Finding that I really use the G7X II more so for that reason.
I noticed focusing breathing on this video (especially if you look at the calendar wall on your right), does it do this often ?
Never noticed until you pointed it out. I don't really use the G7X II for this kind of video every day so never noticed. Mostly I use it to document my life and that involves being behind the camera on travel trips where I don't usually have stationary backgrounds. It is what it is.
Great video. I love my G7X mark ii and this has taken audio to a better level. But as you said i think it's pretty good internal mic.
Yes. The internal mic is pretty darn good.
What, my g7x mark ii audio is horrific. It has instant muffled soundz is it broken?
@@etsukofly me too, did you find a solution?
@@pheobepeach i realized that it's only muffled when you listen to it on camera. Try it on a computer or once you export it, it should sound better
2 minutes before you brought out the bag…. Took too long. Other than that good review.
I was just watching it the other day and I was thinking the same thing. Appreciate the feedback.
A great review!
I want to buy it for aesthetic vintage pictures and I saw it does excellent pictures, should I consider buying another camera and if yes what do you recommend for nice filtered „old style“ pictures?
From what I have heard in the comments the Mark III is fine for photos. I shoot a lot of video along with photos so the video aspect is as important as the photo aspect for me. If you think you might shoot some video with the camera and you want the same look I would buy a used G7X Mark II on ebay, adorama or B&H. I was lucky and found a new Mark II on ebay. I hear that a lot of people that like the vintage look shoot on fuji, however I have never shot fuji so that is not from experience. If you really want that old style look I would consider an old point and shoot film camera like the Olympus mju/Stylus. There are some old Minoltas that are very affordable.
My G7X Mk II died, wont power on. Two repair shops said Canon no longer makes this camera and no longer makes parts for it. Can anyone out there confirm if this is true? I still see the Mk II still for sale some places. Hmmm...
Officially I have no idea if Canon has discontinued. The Mark II is listed on Canon USA's website but on backorder. Everywhere I looked the new ones were on backorder. I ended up finding a vendor on ebay that had a new one for sale in Japan. Bought that one. Interestingly enough the menu was in Japanese. It was impossible for me to read. I had to do a little youtube research to set it to English.
@@jz_glass Today I called Canon to clarify conflicting info. They said they haven't actually "discontinued" supporting their Powershot cameras, but they never actually repaired these cameras. It was not cost effective. Rather, the ones under warranty were replaced. For owners of Powershots out of warranty Canon simply recommended replacement. They don't make the Mark II anymore, but residual stock may still be available and sold. I cannot say why places list the Mk II as on backorder, unless this is a default setting on their websites. I suspect if you wait for them to fill their backorder, you will never see it. The Mark III replaced the Mk II. I hope this help you and others.
@@steadyeddie7453 Thanks so much for filling in the blanks! Really appreciate your leg work.
@@jz_glass I was getting so much conflicting info from camera repair shops I decided to ask Canon directly. So I hope your video and our exchange helps people decide when camera shopping. Cheers.
I know there are newer versions of each, but really, there haven't been any solid improvements since the Sony RX100 VA or the Canon G7X II. That's at least 5-7yr old tech!! Like you said, high-end phones have just killed the profitability in this market, but phones don't have the physical controls, fast true zoom lenses, large sensors, exchangeable batteries, real flash or provide the ability to trigger slave strobes. The camera companies should be able to make something that absolutely kicks-ass with the latest processors, sensors and computational photo tricks... if only they would.
Agreed. At least Sony is still playing the game. Canon seems to have checked out of this part of the market. Agree 100... I much prefer an actual camera than my phone.
Im so glad i wasn't alone in feeling this way. Bought this camera 1month ago, since i wanted to test out a smaller camera than the M50 m2 that im usually shoot with. But the autofocus is just so bad for making videos on the go. Planning to return it this weekend. 😔 I really liked the look of the camera and the fact that it has a mic in connection.
Yeah, that's a bummer man. I was so bent when I saw my first clips.
I agree I’m going to sell it ..
😌 Promo sm
For me personally, i love all the photos that took with my markiii especially with flash on. But for filming, the autofocus is bad even w the new firmware update :(
I didn't take many photos with the mark iii. I imagine for photos it is probably fine.
Thanks for the review! According to all the influencers, you would think this is the best camera ever made. I'm looking for one to take video at my daughters cheer/dance competitions. Do you have any recommendations?
I'm a big Canon fan but the reality is that the Sony ZV1 i is probably the best camera in this class right now. I like the ZV1 i better than the ZV1 ii for your daughter's competitions because it has a 75m zoom vs the ZV1 ii maxes out at 50mm. I own the ZV1 i. It's really good. The autofocus is incredible and you can hook up a microphone if you want. If you want a little more reach the Canon G7X Mii is good because it has a 100mm equivalent zoom, however you can not hook up a microphone and it only shoots in 1080, no 4k. The internal mic is good but not as good as hooking up an external. I had a hard time finding a new G7X ii, but ended up overpaying on ebay for one. I use the G7X ii for hiking because the mic for that kind of shooting isn't that important to me. The ZV1 is probably the better camera with more features these days, the only downside on the photo side is that there is no built in flash.
@@jz_glassZV-E10 better then the ZV1??
I have this camera but I dropped it at a bad angle and damaged the opening mechanism…Now I’m considering what to do. The focus is a nightmare, but the colour and look is like nothing else. I had the Mark II previously but I use an external mic so this ticked the box. It’s such a shame, if it weren’t for the damn focus this is a powerhouse! I’m looking into the Sony too but it doesn’t have in-built flash 😐
Except for a little lower level build quality and trash autofocus the mark iii would be amazing. Canon really missed an opportunity here. I ended up getting a Mark II because just like you I love the look. I did get a ZV1 but the look is not the same. Don't get me wrong the ZV1 has an excellent image quality but there is something about the Canon look.
@@jz_glass Interesting about the build, I got mine in silver metal and it feels very heavy and premium. (Maybe too heavy hence I dropped it). Yea, I don't know what Canon is thinking, Their G7x line has had a cult following for a decade, it doesn't make sense that they don't take advantage of it. It's due an update, it would sell out so fast.
@@TheVirgin If Canon fixes the autofocus it I would be happy. If they fix the autofocus and have build quality as good as the mark ii, I would snap it up in a minute.
Thank you
Anytime.
Thanks for the info. Im deciding between sony xz v1 and canon mark g7 x III but maybe mark 2 is just better then 🙂 Its just that I definitely wanna be able to connect a microphone to it but I have read that with mark 2 you cannot really do that ? 🤔
So... I ended up purchasing the Mark II and the ZV1. If The G7X MII does not have a mic jack so if you want audio that is better than the built in mic you need to record audio externally. This makes this a bit cumbersome. If having a compact camera with a built in mic jack is important to you go with the ZV1.
So great to find these videos on this great old camera. One observation though. One can easily miss that you are recording all the audio on the h1n, and just swapping mics. Since your not making it very clear that you are just using the h1n to record external audio, and are just trying different mics connected to the zoom recorder to demo better audio. The footage can show a different story if you're not paying real close attention. Thanks again for bringing out the canon on the tube again.
Thanks for the comments and constructive feedback.
awesome
Thank you!
THANKS! I shot log on the EOS R and used the second lut at 4:33. It worked perfectly! Thanks!
Anytime! Glad that helped.
what does the lens cover, sensor wise?
Full frame.
I have this camera and you are 100 billion percent correct. Auto focus is the worst and I find myself putting the mark iii in the closet. Then I would remember I have a camera just to use it and remember it is trash!!!! Its pretty embarrassing to be seen with the g7x mark iii and I also have the latest update which does not fix the autofocus....TRASH TRASH TRASH
You got that right. The Mark iii is an embarrassment.
is the mark II better?

Thanks for the peer review. Been eyeing this item. Are your setups usually that minimal? How do you feel with storing a set of keys in it? Seems like 2.5 liters is extra small. Would you recommend for an Olympus EM 1 mkii with an extra lens?
I go spartan with this bag. It’s tiny. I don’t bring another lens because I bring my light meter instead. I think this bag is too small for a mirrorless camera with a viewfinder that protrudes on top. This is best for a range finder or maybe a mirror less without a viewfinder like a Canon M6 or Sony A6400. There is room for an extra small prime like a 35 or 50mm.

@@prizepictures1 Anytime. By the way you can easily store your keys in the inside net on the top if you don’t already have a lot in there. I store 3 rolls of film there so I hang my keys off the side with a Cari Inter.
Hello, Did you already install the software update 1.3.2 and still have the autofocus problem?
It came installed. I checked. Funny... I am watching the footage right now. I thought maybe I was over reacting then the footage reminded me why it was such a good idea to send the mark iii back.
What a shame because I had been seeing some reviews and they indicated that with the update this problem practically disappeared. I guess I'll have to look for another camera.
@@DanielCabanillasArriaga I saw a lot of those too. Especially when I was scrambling for a fix. There is an option to shoot the way the camera originally came with the old firmware and also with the new firmware. I tried the old firmware option to see what it was like and it was unusable. The new firmware is a vast improvement from that but still junk when compared to the G7XM II. If you are going to point the camera at your own face at arm's distance most of the time I don't think you will have too many issues. I don't use the camera like that so it's a problem for me. If I didn't love the G7X Mark II so much I would have purchased the Sony ZV-1.
Good video man. Great camera :)
Thank you. Pretty satisfied with it.
Before I sell my Peak Design sling, is it possible to use their dividers in this Hex sling?
I am at my house at the moment and only have my hex mini sling bag to try this with. For the hex mini-sling the dividers are a little tall, however the mini sling is much shallower than the hex sling. I will try it out with the full size hex tomorrow when I'm in the office. You are genius! I just noticed that Peak Design will sell their dividers individually as replacements. If this works I am going to replace my hex dividers with peak design dividers. I'll keep you posted. Will hit you back tomorrow.
It’s not a real good fit with the peak design dividers. They are designed for a deeper bag so they stick out of the hex bag a bit. I noticed that Peak Design sells replacement camera cube dividers. They look like they might be a better fit. I don’t actually have any of those to test.
