Here we are comparing two Canon cameras cameras with different body types: Canon M50 II, which was introduced in October 2020 is a Entry-Level Mirrorless camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor whereas Canon G7 X MIII, which was introduced in July 2019 is a Large sensor compact camera with a 20.0MP 1″ sensor. There is 15 months difference between M50 Mark II and G7 X MIII so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger M50 Mark II, especially in sensor tech.

Comparing an interchangeble lens camera to a fixed lens camera is a bit tricky but we will do our best to make this a fair comparison.

Here is a brief look at the main features of the Canon M50 II and Canon G7 X MIII before getting into our more detailed comparison.

Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, we are going to illustrate the Canon M50 II and Canon G7 X MIII side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon M50 II has external dimensions of 116 x 88 x 59 mm (4.57 x 3.46 x 2.32″) and weighs 387 g (0.85 lb / 13.65 oz) (including batteries). Canon G7 X MIII has external dimensions of 105 x 61 x 41 mm (4.13 x 2.4 x 1.61″) and weighs 304 g (0.67 lb / 10.72 oz) (including batteries).

Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon M50 II and the Canon G7 X MIII. Canon G7 X MIII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 11mm narrower, 27mm shorter and 18mm thinner than Canon M50 II. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Canon G7 X MIII has a built-in lens but Canon M50 II doesn't. Once you put a lens on M50 Mark II, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Canon G7 X MIII is significantly lighter (83g ) than the Canon M50 II which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.

Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on M50 Mark II, the total kit will weigh much higher. Weather Sealing

Unfortunately neither the Canon EOS M50 Mark II nor Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Mirrorless Cameras with Weather Sealing Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing

LCD Screen Size and Features

Canon M50 II and Canon G7 X MIII's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.

Canon G7 X MIII features a Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon M50 II sports a Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.

Canon M50 II has a 24.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 8 processor. On the other hand, Canon G7 X MIII has a 20.0MP 1″ (13.2 x 8.8 mm ) sized Stacked BSI-CMOS sensor and features DIGIC 8 processor.

Below you can see the M50 Mark II and G7 X MIII sensor size comparison.

Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon M50 II and Canon G7 X MIII Cameras

As seen above, Canon M50 II has a 2.9x Larger sensor area than Canon G7 X MIII. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
