Review: Love this camera. Takes great pictures!
Review: I purchased this camera and have had it a couple of weeks now, so I am still in the learning phase for this camera, but here are some thoughts. I already have a canon SX710 which is a great pocket sized camera with a 30x zoom. However, I have been wanting a camera with a larger sensor as a lot of what I photograph are night shots at concerts and area art installations, etc. When I was in the market, I originally wanted the G7X but found a significant price difference at the time between the G7X and the G9X and they both have similar features, but the G7X has a slightly better zoom and a flip screen, but I did not find those extras compelling enough to justify the extra $200, so I went with the G9X. I also looked at the Sony RX100 (the original) which at the time was priced identical to the G9X, however that camera came out in 2012 and the G9X has the same sensor, but also has an updated Digic 6 image processor, and the newer models of the Sony series were significantly more expensive. My first impressions: For daytime photographs I am getting great results, very sharp images. Coming from another Canon, I had almost no learning curve. I love the touch screen and the ability to touch focus, and don’t think I will ever buy another camera that does not have this feature. Night time low light shots have been very hit or miss. I am still learning this. I am also finding I am missing the zoom capability of the 710 in concert environments when I cannot get close to the stage. However, as I get used to the camera and am going very high on the ISO compared to where I have stopped in the past I am getting decent results. I think it will take a little more practice to really find out how high of an ISO I can go and still get good results. Unlike the 710 and my previous camera (Canon 260) there is no low light preset on this camera so it requires manually configuring in order to get good results, the auto mode does not work well in low light. The good thing is the touch screen makes configuration of the camera even in the darkest of places fairly easy. Also the control ring is useful for quick changes, for instance you can go into manual mode or P mode and touch ISO on the screen and then use the ring to change the setting, same goes for any of the settings, making it easy to change while looking at the subject you are preparing to shoot.[EDIT] I am finding in very low light I need to crank the ISO up to 5000 to get a good light picture, but I do see some noise at that level. The images are still okay for internet sharing. [/EDIT] New edit: I have been shooting in RAW for very dark environments and have been getting good results after tweaking in post processing. /edit2 If I had my way I would have many more preset modes for common scenarios, like sports, low light, etc. I am not a pro and even though I have the basics of F-stop, ISO and shutter speed down, I am not fast at determining in my head what settings will work in what situation so I still have to experiment a bit and sometimes miss the moment because of this. Adding additional scenes in the scene mode setting seems like it would be fairly simple and a cost effective way of increasing the usability of the camera for non-pro photographers, as pros tend to stick to Manual mode anyway. I have found the HDR mode not as stark as I was hoping for, but the photos do come out nice, just not as dramatic as some HDR images I have seen on the internet.[edit] I figured out that the control ring will allow you to set different levels of HDR distortion to make photos more dramatic, I was using the least impactful mode at first [/edit] The background defocus is also not as stark as I was expecting, there have been times when a regular shot with a low f-stop looked similar to the background defocus setting, but without the delay that the defocus setting gives you. [edit] this can be increased using the control ring as well [/edit] The creative mode applies several different filters, I think it can be fun and on this camera you can specify the type of filters to apply (like Retro, auto, natural, and bold), this can be fun, but it seems like you lose some quality, I am not sure if I am imagining this or not. On the other hand, when you have seen 100 images of the same thing, sometimes the filters can make your photo stand out from the crowd. I will sometimes take one shot on creative mode (which give you 5 different pictures) and one shot with the settings I think will give the best quality results. Overall, excellent camera that takes good pictures and is fairly easy to use, and easy to carry. So far I love it. The pictures come out large, which is good as the limited zoom often means more cropping. I am still not sure if the G7X would have been the better choice, but $ made the difference and I think this camera is definitely a good buy if you are looking for a very pocketable camera with a 1 inch sensor. EDIT: I went to a concert last night and they had a large sign saying "no DSLR, SLR, or Mirrorless cameras allowed, cell phones and point and shoots okay". This little camera came right in and I got some good results. My photos turned out much better than the ones my wife took on her iPhone 6. So this is a benefit of a camera like this that appears to be just another low quality P&S. EDIT: I have been shooting in raw mode more and have been getting excellent results. I find that if I shoot in raw, even if I have to go up to ISO of 6400 I can eliminate most of the noise in a photo editor. If you are looking for a stealthy camera to bring into small concert venues that tend to be very dark, I have found I am getting near DSLR quality in a tiny package, this is especially useful in venues where they don't allow "professional" style cameras. After using this camera now for about 2 months, I am loving it more and more. I do think I would prefer the G7X for the flip screen and longer zoom range, but this camera seems to take comparable photos and is significantly less expensive.
