The PowerShot G9 X Mark II is an ultra-compact camera that features a larger-than-average 1-type CMOS sensor. It serves as the entry-level model in Canons Gx-X series and has an MSRP of 529. Being the entry-level model Canon has given the camera a touchscreen-based interface that will be familiar to smartphone owners who are looking to trade up to something better.

The main problems with the original G9 X were performance related. Continuous shooting was slow especially when using Raw or continuous autofocus the menus were sluggish and the battery didnt last for long.

The G9 X Mark II took care of most of the performance problems due mostly to its new DIGIC 7 processor. The burst rate is faster buffer larger and interface snappier. While improved battery life still isnt great though an Eco mode gives you another 80 shots above the industry-standard CIPA estimate of 235. Canon also added in-camera Raw processing Bluetooth capability and improved image stabilization for video shooting.

The G9 X IIS 20MP sensor is found on all of Canons 1-type compacts and is likely the same one found on Sonys RX100 III. The DIGIC 7 processor is what took care of the original G9 Xs performance issues and it makes a world of difference. As before theres a built-in 3-stop ND filter with on/off/auto settings. While essentially all cameras now have Wi-Fi the Bluetooth feature is a nice extra as it allows for very quick re-pairing between camera and smartphone.
