Canon's PowerShot G1 X Mark III exists in somewhat of a vacuum. It has a large APS-C sized sensor, is small enough to be considered pocketable, and has a permanently attached zoom lens with a versatile focal range.

Canon G1X Mark III review
The Canon G1X Mark III is a unique camera, squeezing a large APSC sensor - the same found in the EOS 80D and EOS M5 models - into a relatively compact weatherproof body with a 3x optical zoom, built-in viewfinder, fully-articulated touchscreen, plenty of manual control and excellent wireless...

Wonderful little camera
I'm upgrading my original G1X and this camera has fixed all my little issues with it. The G1X3 has a very sharp lens, as good or better than my G1X or 15-85. I compared the G1X3 at the wide end with my 16-35f4L and 24-105f4L at 24mm on my 5D3 and found it equally sharp in the center andclose to the...

We can't deny that the Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III is a powerful tool in a tiny body. The fact that it's got a large APS-C sensor as well as a Dual Pixel CMOS AF, a fast image processor, weather sealing capabilities, and more makes it an impressive camera you'd probably consider investing in.
Pros:
- With a 24.2MP APS-C CMOS sensor outfitted in a sleek
- ultra-lightweight compact body
- the Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III is a great little tool that gives you beautiful
- crisp images and good quality videos.
Cons:
- Other than the fact that it costs more than you'd probably be willing to pay for a compact all-in-one, its aperture range of f/2.8 to f/5.6 and zoom range of 24-72mm are not impressive
- The close-focusing distance is also limited at 10cm so forget macro shots
- The battery life is disappointing.

Canon's PowerShot G1 X Mark III camera is the successor to the company's G1 X Mark II, and features big upgrades over it. This new model also happens to be Canon's first point-and-shoot camera to have a large APS-C sensor, while still keeping the overall size and weight very pocket-friendly.
Pros:
- Weather-resistant body
- Compact and lightweight
- Dual Pixel AF works well
- Good dynamic range
- Fully articulating touchscreen
Cons:
- High price
- Weak battery life
- Macros are a bit soft
- Intrusive noise reduction at high ISOs
- No 4K video or microphone input

Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III Compact Camera Review
At first glance, the new Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III appears to be either a not-quite-pocketable compact camera or an extremely svelte mirrorless model with a built-in zoom lens. And if you squint your eyes, it even resembles a miniature DSLR.

Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III
The Canon PowerShot G1 X Mark III is a camera that leaves me with very mixed feelings. It puts an APS-C sensor and zoom lens into a form factor we haven't seen before-one that's pocketable-and both the lens and sensor are quite good.
Pros:
- Big, APS-C image sensor
- Compact body
- Dual Pixel AF
- EVF
- Vari-angle touch LCD
- Dust and moisture resistant
Cons:
- Expensive
- Short, narrow aperture zoom lens
- Disappointing battery life
- Eye sensor active with LCD away from body
- Video limited to 1080p
