What's up everybody? Welcome back to the art of photography. My name is Ted Forbes. In this video we're going to take a look at the latest compact offering from Canon. This is the Canon G9X. I have always been a big fan of point-and-shoot cameras. In the last couple of years the quality on most

0:13.7

of these cameras has been just outstanding and I can get really good results

0:17.2

with something that's always with me. It just slips into my pocket. I don't always

0:20.4

have to carry around a heavy DSL with lenses and it's going to give me better

0:24.6

quality than what I get on my cell phone and I've always been a big fan of what Canon

0:28.6

has to offer in this as well. Traditionally the top of the line Canon point and shoots have been in the S lineup that they've done and I think the first one I had was the S95 the last one I had was the S110 which I broke recently and the S120 you can still get and interestingly enough they moved this model up into this GX line of cameras which includes the G1X the G3X the 5X the 7X and now the 9X.

Across that lineup they all have updated sensors. They're all one inch

is that you're going to get better low light performance and they all are

1:00.6

updated to the latest Digic Six processor.

1:03.4

And so I was really excited when Cannon announced this,

1:06.2

although Cannon also have developed a reputation of not

1:09.2

giving a lot of innovation into their products like they,

1:11.4

I really was excited to see what was going to happen with this.

1:14.6

Anyway, so what I want to do is go up and close on this first.

1:17.0

We'll look at some images and I'll give you some of my thoughts

1:19.6

of using the G9X so far.

1:21.5

So this is the Canon G9X which as you can see is very compact. In fact I upgraded from the

1:26.9

Canon S110 which I felt was small but this is even smaller thinner and

1:32.3

noticeably lighter than that camera is.

1:34.5

And so if you are used to can and compacts, you're going to notice a big size difference

1:38.5

here, which is very cool if you want to go with a smaller camera.
