I'm almost positive the GR is sharper along the edges, but seriously not important to me. Slightly soft wide open is easily fixed in post. But GR is a solid lens for those who want straight out of camera sharpness.
Im excited for more videos :) ! I might just go with this instead of lx100. But, what do you think about the image sharpness? I feel like lx100 takes better portraits but im not so sure,
Have a look at a mini pod like the Manfrotto Pixie which would also serve as a grip for mobile vlogging. I now tend to carry one with me although not for vlogging.
+OnCam31 yes I was pretty impressed with the audio quality, although wind noise is a problem. You'll see on my next vlog episode. Battery life is good for the size of battery you get, but it's not great. You need a second battery for sure if you want to use it as a serious camera.
So it does record audio? I'm looking at this camera and the G7 X MII. Only reason I like this one more is because it have a classic eye hole. Was this video recorded with the camera mic?
The G7X II does have built in stereo speakers, but there is no easy way to record using an external microphone source, if at all. YEs this video test was using the built in microphone
audio sucked. i could hear everything in the sorrounding. drill sounded like im in a cabinetry shop. Thats only thing worrying me from buying this cam. have hotshoe but no mic in...
technically the G7X Mrk II is better with the upgraded processor, but it's basically the same sensor and lens. It comes down to the design. Do you want a flip up or flip out articulating screen? Also, do you need an EVF or not? Those two things should help you decide which one you want.
+Franky Junior I am using continuous light only at the point that I mention I'm using an LED light, which is when I took my sunglasses off after I got to the graffiti wall.
Hi I just bought the canon G5X and I have difficulty in zooming in during recording video can you please tell me how? I would really appreciate it thanks in advance :)
that's funny because I had no problems with zooming during recording. Make sure you are not in auto mode and also make sure that you don't have the toggle zoom switch changed in custom mode.
your review is one of the main reasons i got this camera :) thank you brother.
I don't know I m confused between g7xii and g5x
What's the best settings to get great quality on the canon PowerShot g5x
Excited to hear about the sharpness comparison between the X70 and GR.

+bigheadtaco how about AF comparison? It seems the X70 AF is slow even with phase detect. It seems laggier than even my old X100S. Which surprises me.

Good video , i like my G5X now👌
Damn Take. So calm after dropping your phone. You didn't even do a long inspection for scratches.
It fell flat and the case is solid. I knew it was fine :-)
Thanks for this!

+Calvin Chann thanks, yes I'm always looking for better solutions.
Looks good and sounds really great, I honestly thought you were using a mic until you mentioned no input.. how was the battery life..?

Many thanks man!
Thank you mister taco. I ordered this and it’s arriving today. I will upload a video and would like to get your feedback!
the audio is very very good an this camera, i am very impressed
audio sucked. i could hear everything in the sorrounding. drill sounded like im in a cabinetry shop. Thats only thing worrying me from buying this cam. have hotshoe but no mic in...
Is this camera better then the g7x mark 2?

are you using continuous light on top g5x?
+Franky Junior I am using continuous light only at the point that I mention I'm using an LED light, which is when I took my sunglasses off after I got to the graffiti wall.
G5X mrk II. Can't be far away (fingers crossed).
+Malcolm Page true.
hi
g5x or g7x ii for youtube ?
both great, I prefer the G5X. However, neither has a microphone input. I would pick the new EOS M6 instead
the m6 is good but it's over my budget.
it's will be mainly for vlogging.
I prefer the swing out screen of the G5, but the swing up screen of the G7X does keep the whole camera thinner.

bigheadtaco I already figured it out i just didn't know the zoom button located hahaha
G5X or G7X MK2 ?
+TheTruthKiller I haven't reviewed the G7X yet, but I prefer cameras with EVF's and flash hotshoe.
I'm guessing you are wearing those glasses to look at your screen
Exactly xD You found out the secret all vloggers keep!
how much is it?
$800...just go look on Amazon or Walmart
Cool shades. Casey Neistat look out!
I should get that camera powershot g5x from my Birthday I think my parents will pay that camera. Idk but i like your videos
New g7x mark ii sounds interesting... Hope you 'll do that review
+Marjan Apostolović yes looking forward to it
man those glasses are very distracting for someone to FOCUS on you and what your saying.
