I have been using this camera for the past 2 years it is awesome for recording videos for youtube.its lens is wide angle which is very good for vlogging if you do youtube or create videos as a passion.the camera screen flips up and while recording yourself or recording a vlog which is very good as you can see yourself doing the thing u love.from my point of view Canon G7 X Mark | is the best camera you cam find in the market and for the best quality and wide angle views! its also awesome for selfies! happy clicking!
