Product Description

The Moment is Yours.

Beauty and style outside. Advanced technology inside. Whether you're snapping an unforgettable moment on the go or recording an epic video with your friends, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera combines an ultra-slim design with high-performing features for incredible image quality and easy portability. Packing a powerful 1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel* CMOS sensor into a pocket-friendly size, it's powered by the DIGIC 7 Image Processor for fast operation and features built-in Bluetooth®** connectivity for easy sharing. With the PowerShot G9 X Mark II, it's easy to capture the precious times of your life in a stylishly stunning way.

1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel* High-sensitivity CMOS Sensor.

The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera features a large 1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel* CMOS sensor that helps capture high-quality images and videos. Its wide dynamic range helps ensure both bright and dark parts are fully captured, like the shadowy side of a building on a bright sunny day, or streetlights on a dark night. 20.1 Megapixels* provide high-resolution photos for printing, viewing and additional flexibility during editing. Paired with the new DIGIC 7 Image Processor, it benefits from a fast shutter speed that helps reduce the chance of blur and combines with a high ISO for great low-light results – helping you capture clear, beautiful photos and videos in virtually any situation.
* Image processing may cause a decrease in the number of pixels.

DIGIC 7 Image Processor.

The DIGIC 7 Image Processor takes the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera to the next level with fast operation and high image quality, even in in low light. It helps speed up start-up time, operation time and continuous shooting, while providing noise reduction even at high ISO settings to help capture sharp, detailed images in virtually any lighting situation. Enhanced tracking and detection capabilities help lock onto your subject throughout the action, from improved face tracking to help keep your subject in focus, to Dual Sensing IS which helps minimize blur caused by camera shake and body movement. This results in clear, precise pictures even at slow shutter speeds. Providing high detail, low noise and fast, accurate tracking, the DIGIC 7 Image Processor helps deliver high-quality photos and videos.

Ultra-slim, Lightweight and Pocket-size Camera.

At only 7.3 ounces (206g), the PowerShot G9 X Mark II is a compact camera that can easily fit into a pocket or purse. Packing a large, high-quality image sensor and bright f/2.0 lens, it helps create high-quality photos, even in low light. This means you can have a camera within easy reach to capture detailed images that can show the texture of clothing fabric, the colors of a sunset or the stunning view of a city or landscape that takes your breath away.

Built-in Wi-Fi®**, NFC*** and Bluetooth®^.

Thanks to built-in Wi-Fi® technology and the Canon Camera Connect app**, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera can transfer photos and videos to and from compatible devices, upload directly to various web services and more.

This application is not guaranteed to operate on all listed devices, even if minimum requirements are met.

Bright f/2.0 (W) – f/4.9 (T), 3x Optical Zoom Lens (28㫬mm).

The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera has a versatile zoom lens with a flexible optical zoom range, helping you capture wide shots like a big party scene or a gorgeous canyon, or zoom in for a wonderful close-up. The bright aperture goes as large as f/2.0, creating beautiful background blur to make your subject pop and helping you take clear photos in low light, often without a flash. Combined with Intelligent IS, it helps to ensure sharp and virtually shake-free images in many shooting situations.

3.0-inch Touch Panel LCD.

The 3.0-inch touch panel is designed for easy operability so you can make adjustments while still being ready to snap a photo. The menus are customizable, meaning the settings you adjust frequently can be set to be easily accessible. You're also able to swipe quickly through photos you've taken, and tap the screen to easily adjust picture options and change what the camera is focusing on. In addition, the control ring around the lens can be rotated with your fingers to make adjustments to various settings, simplifying the process even further.

Full HD, Dynamic IS and Time-Lapse Movie Video Functions.

Let the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera help capture the most memorable times of your life in videos with high detail and clarity. Full HD resolution helps ensure you can see the unique expressions of your family's faces in close-up movies, or the trees, rocks and running wildlife of a mountain landscape in scenic videos. Dynamic IS helps keep the frame steady even when you're walking, so you can keep up with any movement while minimizing unwanted blur. For additional creative options, a Time-Lapse Movie function lets you condense long stretches of time into short, compelling videos with high resolution and lifelike clarity.

Continuous Shooting Speeds of up to 8.2 fps.

Just because you want to capture a memory forever doesn't mean the world pauses for your camera. Whether it's a funny instant with your pet or a vintage train rolling into the station, the PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera's fast capture (up to 8.2 fps) can help save the moment you want. Plus, improved object tracking performance automatically detects what you're capturing to help ensure they stay clear and in focus in virtually every shot, no matter the subject.

Picture Style Function.

The Picture Style function, just like on EOS digital cameras, lets you choose between eight presets that adjust color, contrast and other aspects of the image to help you fine-tune how your picture looks. For example, if you're taking a photo of a friend, you can use Portrait mode, which adjusts color to create beautiful skin tones and flattering pictures. If you're looking to capture some stunning mountain peaks, you can use Landscape mode, which helps keep the colors vibrant from the blue sky to the green trees. There are eight styles to choose from, plus you can download additional styles and even create your own with the Picture Style Editor.

In-camera RAW Conversion.

The PowerShot G9 X Mark II camera's in-camera RAW conversion lets you adjust multiple aspects of an image after you capture it, without using a computer. You can change brightness levels manually or through the Auto Light Optimizer, which analyzes the photo and adjusts it accordingly. You can also fine-tune the white balance, change the Picture Style and more. When you're done, switch between the original and adjusted image to check your work, then save the result as a JPEG for later use.

Great little backpack camera that provides wonderful photographs from close ups of wildflowers to mountain vistas. Great videos as well and transfers to my I-Pad are easy and quick. The only camera needed on long hikes where space and weight are at a premium. Take along an extra battery to keep going between stops.

Nice Camera for travel or everyday

Great Camera. I purchased for a trip to Hawaii. I wanted a better camera than my iPhone X. It was worth the purchase. The 1 inch light sensor worked well in low light. The best feature was the ability to shoot in several picture taking modes. I used Auto, AV and Manual the most. This camera took excellent pictures and was fun to use. I recommend purchasing and using ahead of time to get back into a photographers frame of mind. I did this and had no problems. One setting was a little different. It is right next to Auto. Every picture taken in that mode is made into a vignette type slide show. I didn't expect this as the Canon You Tube camera instruction video said this mode gave the photographer the ability to let the camera decide wether it would be in portrait mode or landscape. I went with it on the first day and was "rewarded" with a "slide show". Anyway, the only thing I would hold against this camera and the reason for only four stars is because sometimes the touch screen was hard to see in bright sunlight.

Good photos and impressive features but fiddly to use

Image quality at web size enlargement is excellent and it can do all kinds of neat tricks if you can figure out how. The size is perfect for a normal pocket or purse. It is quick to start up and the battery life is good. The display is good unless you are in bright sunlight and then it can be almost unusable. You can boost the screen brightness and it helps. If you are accustomed only to cell phone cameras you probably won't mind the lack of a viewfinder. My major complaint is that the user interface in general is fiddly and complicated. For example, there is way too much menu diving and many things are not intuitive to use. Scrolling through items with the zoom switch is difficult to do accurately, it goes too fast. The touchscreen icons are very small and you can't enlarge them. There is no "garbage can" icon or dedicated "trash" button to erase a photo. The button labels are hard to read. It simply isn't easy to take advantage of all the great features and it can be frustrating to try to make it do what you want, even in the least complicated AUTO mode. There are probably workarounds for some of my complaints, and it would probably be a lot easier if I used it every day and really got to know all the ins and outs, but I don't use it regularly and would prefer a much more intuitive interface.

After extensive research. I bought the Powershot G9X. I'm a beginner photographer and I wanted something light for my travels. I've had the camera for a week and I love just how small it is. The touchscreen is accurate and the quality of my shots are splendid. I'm still learning all the advance features but I'm very pleased with my purchase

My night time / low light camera

This is the pocket camera built for night time, low light, or indoor evening photography. It's got a huge 1" image sensor that soaks up the light and the M setting has a 'bulb' setting that I don't believe any other pocket camera has. I love going out at night and I want a pocket camera that won't weigh me down. This thing is tiny but its always ready to catch those amazing moments that come up without warning. No other pocket camera has the image capture power for those types of shots. Check out the shots I uploaded and read about each one so you can see for yourself what this camera can do. Please note, that like all digital cameras, you need to hold the camera as still as you can and take lots of pictures because some shots are just not going to come out. Taking more pictures means you have a greater chance of getting super fine auto focused pictures.

This is the same scene. Camera is mounted to a gorilla pod to keep it steady. Using the Canon camera app while the camera was in M 'bulb' setting, I was able to take a 3 second exposure with no camera shake! Go ahead and zoom in on any part of it.

Good compact camera but needs better firmware

Submitted 8 years ago

I will start off by saying this is the best compact camera I've ever used. The menus and settings are intuitive giving me the ability to drill down into how much I want to do manually vs. automatically. The touch screen responsive such a great idea where once I was limited to pressing buttons - and, it supports gestures like pinch to zoom and touch to focus. It takes great pictures for a compact camera and does well in high contrast scenes as well as low light. The retro styling is reminiscent of a vintage Leica M6 chrome Gold Dragon. It's small yet the screen is large and bright. It does everything - movies, still photos, macro photography, manual focus, and most important raw format. My favorite feature is the exposure lock which allows me to dial in the shutter/aperture combination I'd like for the intended exposure i.e. if I want to blur the background I simply open the aperture and not need to rely on digital magic. Yet, I nearly returned it after looking at the first photographs. This is NOT my idea of a "point and shoot" camera. It's a compact camera which requires a learning curve and has firmware which fights with you rather than helping you to take great pictures. My idea of a phd camera (Press Here Dummy) is that if I set the dial to "AUTO" or "P" I expect the camera to take the photograph in the best possible way. This is sadly not the case. Here are all the gotcha's, some of which can be compensated for by learning to use "C" custom settings and custom scenes. My first photographs were both blotchy and grainy. The camera defaults to ISO 320 rather than AUTO, even in a brightly lit scene. The noise filter was turned all the way up to compensate. The better idea is to set the ISO to the lowest possible setting to reduce noise on a bright day for the best clarity. I also used the "Fine Detail" scene. I thought it was a good idea at the time. What this does, however, is crank up the sharpening filter which produces unwanted blotches and artifacts. In fact, most of the so-called scenes are just combinations of 6 settings, 3 of which are sharpening. Sharpening should not be done in the camera. If you want a sharper photo use a tripod and focus carefully. One of the great features is combination AF+MF which allows you to autofocus then tweak in for perfect sharp focus. That's how you get sharp photos. Don't use the built-in sharpening because it won't look as nice. Automatic White Balance was "hit or miss." Yet, the custom white balance was great, once I figured out how to use it. You need to first take a photograph of something mostly white, then get into the settings for custom white balance. It took me a while to figure it out. I'm used to a single-button, "press shutter for custom white" but this is a confusing multi-step process. It's worth learning how to use it and obtain a white balance card. 20.1 megapixels. True, but you get that resolution at the expense of digital zoom and image stabilization. Digital Zoom uses your unused pixels to magnify the image. If you use all 20meg of them there's nothing left to zoom. Solution: use the full resolution and crop your photos with your PC while ditching the digital zoom. Image stabilization? yea, kinda. Once again the camera uses your unused pixels to lock in on the photograph to eliminate unwanted movement blur. You loose this feature if you shoot at full resolution or save your RAW files. Solution: Use a tripod or enforce a higher shutter speed using shutter speed priority setting or locked AE to reduce motion blur and forget about image stabilization. Geo-tagging? yea, kinda. It's mentioned in the manual and is a function of the camera if (big IFF - If and only If) you shoot your photos using the Canon smartphone app. The camera lacks GPS on its own. Bluetooth? yea, kinda. It's only for the shutter and zoom. If you want to remote view on your smartphone the app automatically switches to WiFi for those operations. It's good for selfie's and selfie sticks. WiFi transfer to PC or cloud? yea, kinda. Once again, Canon cripples this functionality to force you to obtain an on-line account, transfer the images to Canon's website after forcing you to agree to all kinds of stipulations about your photographs and agreeing to let them delete photographs they don't like. You need to do this just to transfer photos wirelessly to your PC located just 6 feet away. It might be fine for bloggers and tweeters but not for professionals. Despite having Bluetooth and Wifi, the most direct way to get photos off the phone is via a microUSB cable which Canon does not supply. At least it's a standard connector. Or, open the bottom door and pop out the CF card to use with a card reader. The most useful software Canon provides is the RAW developing to bypass a lot of the dysfunctional automatic camera settings. Care needs to be taken with their RAW software development which *defaults* to heavy sharpening. Again, if you are shooting RAW you probably don't want to apply your sharpening filter at this stage. The first time I used it I neglected to scroll down to notice the sharpening filter defaults to ON and was disappointed with the blotches and artifacts. Solution: double-check everything and save your settings. The RAW development compensates heavy lens distortion which is corrected through software rather than optics, just as the noise reduction compensates for high noise levels of the sensor. Another helpful tip - the settings in your "C" custom profile are NOT saved by default. You need to "register" your settings. You can also toggle the automatic save to ON; else, the next time you turn your camera on it will reset all your settings. I found that if I always use the "C" setting and custom scene setting to town down the sharpening filter, lower the ISO, save my RAW files, and double-check all my settings every time then I get good quality pictures. This is not my definition of a "Point and Shoot" camera. It's a good "compact camera." I just wished Canon had chosen to make this a "smarter" camera.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
