Powershot G7 X Mark II

Canon just announced their new top compact digital camera, the Powershot G7 X Mark II. The $700 camera pairs a 1.0-inch, 20.1-megapixel CMOS sensor with Canon’s new DIGIC 7 Image Processor to help reduce noise. The Mark II camera improves upon Canon’s PowerShot G7 X, by adding a fast startup and improved RAW continuous shooting speed of up to 8 fps (frames per second) with short intervals between shots.

The Mark II is also the first Canon camera to feature the company’s new high-speed DIGIC 7 Image Processor, which claims to improve auto focus tracking, enhance IS, and improve image clarity even when shooting with a high ISO. For increased flexibility, the Mark II can record Full HD 1080p/60 video and has built-in Wi-Fi and NFC for sharing, and in-camera RAW conversion.
