Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III
The Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III is a 1-inch, 20.1 MP pocket compact with a 24–100 mm f/1.8–2.8 zoom, a 3-stop ND and uncropped 4K.
Worth it if
- You want a bright 24–100 mm compact with USB-C and no EVF.
Skip it if
- You want 200 mm and a pop-up EVF. That is the RX100 VII.
