An electronic viewfinder (EVF) with a higher resolution provides a sharper image, producing a view comparable in quality with the one displayed on an optical viewfinder.has a built-in focus motor

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G3 X)

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G7 X)

The focus motor moves the lens in order to autofocus. For system cameras, having a focus motor in the camera's body allows you to use a wide range of lenses, including lenses which do not have their own focus motor. For compact cameras, a focus motor is usually built-in.Has a flip-out screen✔Canon PowerShot G3 X✔Canon PowerShot G7 XFlip-out screens can be useful for tricky shots.viewfinder coverage

With 100% coverage, you can compose the image correctly when you capture the photo. With less than full coverage, you may have to crop your photos afterward to get them looking perfect.screen size

Optics

One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.lens mount

focus points

31

31

The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.megapixels (main camera)

20.2 MP

20 MP

The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.maximum ISO

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G3 X)

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G7 X)

With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.maximum expanded ISO

25600 ISO

12800 ISO

Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.has sensor shift stabilization

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G3 X)

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G7 X)

With sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera. This means the image will be stabilised regardless of what lens is being used.continuous shooting (mechanical)

5.9 fps

6.5 fps

The number of frames per second that can be captured in continuous drive mode when using the mechanical shutter.has AF tracking✔Canon PowerShot G3 X

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G7 X)

With AF tracking, once you choose the subject and press the shutter release part way down, as the subject moves, the autofocus will follow it. No more out of focus shots.+ Show more +

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Canon PowerShot G7 X)

A phase-detection autofocus system is faster than a contrast detection autofocus system. Even when recording scenes with a lot of fast movements, the videos are sharp and clear.has continuous autofocus when recording movies✔Canon PowerShot G3 X✔Canon PowerShot G7 XWhen recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.has a microphone input✔Canon PowerShot G3 X
