.
The Canon PowerShot G7 X belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Canon PowerShot G7 X has various automatic modes but you won't shoot photographs of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The device can make images at 20 megapixels max resolution. But for better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1″ (13.2 x 8.8 mm) sensor. The camera with such sensor size is the optimal choice if you want to take images of a rather good quality but don't want to carry heavy DSLRs. And if you want to shoot images of the professional quality pay attention to Leica M (Typ 262).
The Canon PowerShot G7 X has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which is rather good for shooting action images of a very good quality. The Canon PowerShot G7 X has tilting LCD that will let the owner to capture images from any odd angle very simple. The Canon PowerShot G7 X produces high quality videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the device and the camera owner can't change it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
Also this device has Wi-Fi which means that the PowerShot G7 X owner can use the phone or tablet for remote control for example. The Canon PowerShot G7 X battery life will be enough to capture about 210 images.
