Expensive, Burst rate slows when shooting Raw, Lacks 4K video support
The Canon PowerShot G5 X is a bulkier twin to the G7 X, adding an EVF, a hot shoe, and a vari-angle display. It's an excellent choice if you want a beefier compact...

Abstract: What makes a great small camera? For some, it must have comfortable controls. For others, it must actually fit comfortably in a pants pocket. So picky! Canon's two new high-end compacts have two different beautiful exteriors that almost make me forget the...
