Five things help it to stand out from the 1in sensor pack. For starters, you’re not forced to settle with boring black. That’s the model that I was sent for review, but I’m much more enamoured by the silver and tan finish.More significantly, this is the s...
I'd have loved to see better battery life, nippier performance and slightly more to grip onto on the front of the camera. However, the concept is so strong that these drawbacks pale into insignificance. This is a camera that no one could complain is too h...

The G9 X is one of a pair of new compacts from Canon (the G5 X for review next week) that have the same 20 megapixel 1” sensors and processors in different body forms. The smaller G9 X has a 28—84mm (equivalent) f2—4.9 stabilised lens. The touch-sensitive...

On the evidence of the Canon PowerShot G9 X it's time to wave goodbye to the company's older, small-sensor PowerShot cameras. Why? Because the G9 X packs a large 1-inch sensor size into a slender body, making a good case to out-and-out replace models such...

The Canon PowerShot G9 X is an accomplished compact camera, but one that feels like a fill-in for the company's wider 1-inch sensor range, not quite a knock-out product in its own right. It does show off some interesting work-in-progress ideas such...

Pursuing the goal of a genuinely pocketable camera with high resolution and superior performance to smart-phones and similarly-sized compact digicams, Canon's PowerShot G9 X competes head-to-head against Sony's RX100 cameras. It's smaller than the Sonys...
The G9 X appears to be the lightest and most compact of cameras with one-inch type (13.2 x 8.8 mm) sensors currently available. Its nearest rival is the Sony RX100 Mark III, which measures 101.6 x 58.1 x 41 mm and weighs 290 grams with battery and card.Li...

Photographers pay a premium for compact cameras with 1-inch image sensors—Sony's most expensive pocket model, the RX100 IV, sells for close to $1,000. Canon is attempting to slash the price of entry with the $529.99 G9 X, but it's still a significant purc...

The best case for the G9 X is that it is the most compact camera with a one-inch sensor out there. That's worth quite a bit, and for £415, it can hang with the competition. But if performance is really important to you, you simply must stump up the cash f...

But enough of the body, what does the Canon G9X give you inside that trim package? Well, you get the exact same 20.2-megapixel, backside-illuminated CMOS image sensor as used in the Canon G3X and G7X, widely reported -- but I don't believe ever officially...
