Canon PowerShot G3 X Pro Reviews

The Canon PowerShot G3 X couples excellent image quality with a long zoom range, but it really needs a built-in EVF.

The Canon Powershot G3 X offers a large 1inch sensor and the longest optical zoom available with this size sensor, which makes the camera quite chunky, but also quite small in comparison to other cameras with the same sensor such as the FZ1000 and RX10. The Canon Powershot G3 X features a large 3.2inch touch-screen with a high resolution of 1.62 million dots, and the ability to tilt to multiple angles. The camera body has good handling with a good size rubber hand grip, and along with weather sealing, the camera will be well suited to shooting in a variety of conditions where you wouldn't normally want to be shooting. Whilst the camera does not offer a built in electronic viewfinder, this does allow it to be slightly smaller, and an optional electronic viewfinder can always be added if felt necessary. If you're looking for a camera capable of taking higher quality images than your standard compact camera, and you want as much optical zoom as possible, then the Canon Powershot G3 X certainly delivers.
