Fantastic dynamic range maintaining quality all of the way
After much review of my next "pocket" camera, I ran across this one which exceeded my size requirements, but I just couldn't resist the specs. As it turns out, it's worth the extra size! The telephoto range is awesome and not to be matched but maybe on a camera and lens weighing 8 times this one. This is the camera I thought didn't exist and am extremely happy on my purchase. After owning a Sony RX-100 M3 my expectations were pretty high and I am not disappointed. It's a perfect compliment also to my full size Nikon's which I haul out for special occasions. The colors and sharpness are wonderful and right in tune with everything I already knew about Canon. This is the one camera you don't want to be without to catch your kids down the beach having fun and bring them into close view. Also it makes for the perfect macro camera. The WiFi app is the first one that I really like, especially on an Android phone like my Samsung Galaxy 5 (yes I know there are newer ones). So go out and get one for yourself!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good but Expensive
Nice camera, difficult to get used if you had a DSRL. No viwpont its an issue. Difficult to focus. Lens seem loose when its off Think are better options with Panasonic at the same price range.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Thanks to all the reviewers who couldn't get past the lack of an EVF...
They've driven the price down to a real bargain without really understanding the strengths of this amazing camera. With a sensible and logical menu system coupled with a touch screen, navigating and making changes on the fly are a breeze; extremely fast and simple. Similarly, touching the screen to select a specific focus point is instantaneous. No buttoning around to move the selection box. When highly zoomed in, the button that zooms out while still showing the original zoomed area size is invaluable for re-acquiring the subject. The scene modes are also quick and easy to select with the touch screen. And the image quality is outstanding. The camera has so much intelligent programming that Auto Mode easily handles the vast majority of shooting situations while HDR, Shadow Compensation and the myriad other functions are available for the remainder. Yes, an EVF is extremely useful and other cameras have them built in but can they tilt upward? Can they be removed when not required? The Canon's EVF can and, now that you can get a bundle which includes one for the discounted price of the camera alone, the last barrier to getting a great, weather-proofed, touch screen, high-quality, light-weight, easy to use, smart, 24-600mm zoom camera has been removed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Canon G3X
unique camera - with 1 inch sensor and 24-600mm Focal Length - a super zoom - it has the sensor from the RX100m3 - so a good sensor - the G3X is smaller then the competitors the Lumix FZ1000 and Sony RX10 /1/2/3 - it is priced close to the Lumix FZ1000 - but the FZ1000 is a bit larger but on the other hand has 4K video and a Electronic Viewfinder anymore function buttons - The Lumix has a bit shorter focal length of 25-400mm - but faster aperture F2.8-4.0 vs the F2.8-6.3 on the Canon G3X - I do like the size of the G3X vs the bridge style which the Lumix FZ1000 and Sony RX10 1/2/3 are - but with the smaller body Canon omits the EVF - I bought a separate EVF that goes in the hot shote and it is a decent EVF but it adds $250 more to the price - so really the Lumix FZ1000 is the bargain and it likewise is loaded with features - which the Canon G3X is not - The G3X does however have a Touch LCD which the Sony and Lumix do not have - I miss many features on the G3X - Video in HD is good but of course no 4K like the Lumix FZ1000 and the Sony RX10 1/2/3 have - The new Sony RX10 m3 is the best of the 3 with a focal length of 24-600 like the Canon G3X but has a faster lens of F.2.4 - f4.0 and the best 4k features but it is also $1498 while the Lumix FZ1000 with 4k and many features ant 25-400 F2.8-4.0 is $797 so $700 less then the Sony - The Canon G3X is $899 with no 4k and no EVF and less features and - so the Lumix FZ1000 is a bargain - If however you like to have a bit smaller body in line with the mirrorless cameras vs bridge style camera then the Canon G3X is it - Maybe Canon will have an update to it - like they just updated their G7X to G7X m2 - although I argue that the updates where not that impressive - For one I think they should replace the flash with a built in EVF - the flash is worthless as when lens is zoomed out it blocks the light from the little flash - I think more important to have a builtin EVF then that tiny flash I find that the images are a bit soft - although it is using a Sony sensor - so must be due to processing - Sony tends to like sharper out of camera images - but as it can record in RAW one can post process - The new Lumix ZS100 25-250mm F2.8-6.3 with the same Sony 1 inch sensor is a fantastic tiny camera - yes not quite 400 or 600mm - but so small and light - and images are just sharper - it has 4k and Post Focus features - super super fast processor - like when one puts it in a mode where the camera shoots 2-5 shoots and then merges them into the best image - often used in low light situations - to increase dynamic range etc - most cameras will display a MSG - Processing ... for 1 to several seconds and one waits - but with the ZS100 and a decent SD card - there is no wait - So regardless which 1 inch super zoom you get - you got to get the Lumix ZS100 - If you want the ultimate super zoom - then it is the $1495 Sony RX10m3 - it it is lots of features - and 4k and a bridge style is not an issue and price is then the Lumix FZ1000 is a clear winner but you get 200mm shorter zoom - If size is the main thing then the Canon G3X - They are all using Sony 1 inch sensors - except the RX100m4 has the latest version - stacked - which offloads a bit faster for video - but in reality there is no real image quality difference - but it does a tiny bit better in low light - but of course for lot more moneyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Best of Both Worlds
I looked around a good bit to find a camera with both a powerful zoom and also a sensor large enough to capture quality images. Found it! I was tired of lugging around my "rig" of lenses and camera bodies to events that didn't need all that. Voila. The Powershot G3X doesn't fit in my pocket, but it packs in my suitcase easily, or hangs around my neck with ease. This is a point-and-shoot camera with some professional, DSLR-style features, like custom white balance, high ISO, remote firing, custom setting presets, and hotshoe. 600mm optical zoom? Yeah, I'll take that. It goes even further with a digital zoom, and I am surprised at how little quality is lost with those as well! In short, this is awesome for photographers who know enough about what they are doing to get great use out of these features. And for those who don't, set it to auto, and get great images anyway!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

From pro dslr to this bridge camera
I've used high end canon equipment for years. I presently own a canon 1dx and 5d4 along with sho very expensive glass. I purchased the g3x for travel, it had many features similar to the pro body dslr cameras but in one small package that travels well, shoots great and creates quality images. Yes it's not as great as some of my high end equipment but it's as close as you can get for this price point..Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

G3X--A BEST ALL IN ONE CAMERA!
Tired of too many lens and loaded by heavy dslrs, I sought a different direction. Canon with the G3X certainly delivers and is a surprising breath of fresh air for photography. While super zooms aren't anything new to the field, they have improved over the generations to now finally have a decently large sensor for high end photos (Sony and Panasonic also offer their versions but both offer much shorter zoom ranges to their cameras). What sets the Canon G3X apart is the sharp 24-600mm zoom. With simplicity and a straightforward no nonsense camera, the G3X is outstanding--a best all in one camera! I won't be discussing video as this is something I don't use (Yes. I'm a dinosaur!). Pros: Ergonomics--Right from the get go, the G3X feels comfortable and as if it is absorbed into your hand. For such a large zoom, the camera is light (though it does have a plastic-like feel to it, but the reason that the camera is light). Weather resistant and textured (but not entirely weather proof) the body fits nicely in the hand. The G3X reminds me of the early Sigma DP cameras as elegant, low key and understated, but great performers. There is a straightforward simplicity to the G3X. Image Stabilization--The IS is so good on the G3X that I think it could shot through an earthquake! I kid you not. I hand held at the zoo at ISO 125 (as well as higher ISOs) full zoom and only a couple of shots didn't come out and I have very bad camera shake. Image Quality--Thanks to a superb lens IQ is very sharp throughout the lens and images come out looking as though taken with a dslr. Great glass on this camera! Colors and tone are rich and accurate. Metering--Overall very accurate and true in capturing scenes. LCD--large 3.2 inch LCD and excellent touch screen with high end resolution. I frequently felt secure to tap on the screen to focus for accurate image taking (a separate EVF is available). Screen flips up for selfies. Menu--Similar to past Canon Powershots with some minor tweaking. Easy to get around the camera and find options. User friendly. Lens--When off, there is a disconcerting rattle to the camera, which one reviewer pointed out is the image stabilization, but when the camera is on and the lens extended there is no rattle. The reason for purchasing the G3X is the zoom range and larger sensor. The G3X doesn't disappoint in its glass as is an excellent lens throughout the range. Stellar. Sensor--the 1 inch 20mp sensor provides great detail and color rendition. Superb. Equally important in the purchase of the G3X is its 1 inch sensor and it delivers handsomely. Cons: The G3X isn't a fast shooting camera per say so if you need something fast for sports this isn't the camera for you. No EVF but one can be purchased as well as having to additionally purchase a lens hood and adapter to add on a lens filter for protection. These last two are short comings by Canon! Tried the HDR effect a couple of times but noticed nothing special about it. A manually focused lens would have been nicer than the power zoom provided. Slow RAW burst rate. Something like one per second--ouch! (I haven't tired the wifi) TIPS--Blown out highlights In the two saved setting modes allowed I set up one for bright sunshine to shoot at f8 and ISO125 (as this takes care of blown highlights), and another setting for low light at f2.8 and ISO 400. I switch between the two according to the scene. The software of Digital Photo Professional version 4 downloaded directly from the Canon website (camera serial number must be provided to download) is excellent. RAW photographs come out looking professional. There is a monochrome setting in the software for b/w with related b/w filters. There is an ongoing issue of where to purchase the G3X and varying prices ranging from $650 to $800. The lower prices reflect the grey market International version of the camera which won't have Canon US warranty, and the higher prices are for US/Canada warranty covered cameras. I have purchased grey markets cameras in the past and have been happy, but realize that Canon probably won't honor the warranty. I purchased mine new on ebay US version. As a personal aside and being totally subjective, the Fujifilm X-S1 with its 600mm lens is a better camera than the G3X except for one important reason--the Fuji sensor is a 2/3 sensor and the G3X is 1 inch sensor. Should Fuji ever up its game then Canon would certainly be challenged, but for now the G3X tops all and even rivals low end dslrs.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Canon G3X, everything I expected and more!
So far this is Camera is everything I expected and more. Even though it came out a few years ago, I did a lot of research, and for my needs (compact, travel, hobby) it stands up to the current options. The 600mm zoom is crazy, you just need a very stead shot.
