Amazing camera!

OK. Although the video on this camera is very good, I am not a vlogger and I am writing this review from a casual photographers point of view. I wanted a new camera and wasn't sure I was ready for a DSLR. I've had other point-and-shoot cameras that were "OK". The main problem I had was shooting in low light without streaks or other artifact. Enter the Powershot G7X MII. This camera fits the bill. Even on full auto, pictures are amazing in daylight and night scenes. Great color and sharpness. This camera also has many manual settings that I have started to play with and learned how to improve the quality in different situations. It shoots RAW and JPEG and you can shoot both simultaneously. It's a little more than I though I would spend on a point-and-shoot camera but with an f1.8-f2.8 lens with a 1" sensor I am not having buyers remorse. This camera is fantastic! I've seen other reviews about battery life being mediocre. I can say I have not had this problem. I bought another genuine Canon battery to have on hand but so far I haven't had to use it.

I'm planning to order this online along with some accessories and I was wondering what would be the best memory card for this item?

I got a SanDisk Extreme Plus 64GB and have not been disappointed.

What's the difference between the g7x and g7x mark 2

Basically a newer image processor, the Canon Digic 7; It allows for faster shooting speed and better picture quality. Another plus is the rubber grips that Canon added on this model, they really help with holding the camera still. Lastly, they also made a change in the view screen; it now tilts down as well as up. I did some research and waited for the MII over the original. IMO, the changes are worth the slight cost increase.
