Awesome picture quality, manual controls can be a bit complicated for beginners, but that's why it has "Auto" mode :-)

The Canon PowerShot G5X Mark II is a high-end compact with a 1in sensor, 5x / 24-120mm zoom, popup viewfinder, tilting touchscreen, fast bursts and 4k video. Announced in July 2019, it replaces the three year old PowerShot G5X and adapts its design to become closer to Sony's popular RX100 series.
The PowerShot G5 X Mark II is quite a different proposition to the existing G5 X, and with its new EVF it's arguably the closest rival to Sony's RX100 models to date. It feels great in the hands and is responsive in use, and the EOS-style interface makes for great operation.
Feels very well put together; Responsive and fast AF; EOS-style menu system; Grip makes for excellent handling
EVF needs to be pulled back before use; Lens control ring feels somewhat hollow; Expensive next to Sony RX100 III and IV
The new PowerShot G5 X Mark II is fast, small and powerful...
Improved 5x zoom lens; Pocketable dimensions; Powerful 4K video capture
No mic socket; Pop-up EVF could be tiresome; Lacklustre fine detail
