As you can see both camera core specification is almost identical.
Both the camera uses
- same sensor
- Same image processor and
- Same Lens
The Canon G5X look similar to Canon G7X expect a Grip and a pentaprism viewfinder type construction. However don’t get confused the Canon added a EVF on th rear side of the camera and a pop-up flash.
Along with the control ring similar to G7X the Canon added a front mode dial button for more customization control.
The large LCD display screen now move all the way you want and you can add external microphone in G5X via mic input.
Verdict: Canon G5X is better than G7X by some marginal features and at the same time we also recommend Canon G16 users to go ahead and finally upgrade their camera with Canon G9X or Canon G1X Mark II.

Sensors:- Both Canon G9 X as well as Canon G5 X has almost same resolutions of 20MP and 20.2MP respectively with the same CMOS sensor size of 1”.
The 1” CMOS sensor with DIGIC 6 image processor used inside both the cameras to perform better in low-light conditions with the reduction in noise. The G9 X and G5X have maintained the almost similar ISO of 125-12800. Let’s talk about the resolution vs processor speed — Canon G9 X supports to capture 20MP files @6fps where Canon G5X captures 20.2 files @ 5.9fps. (yep almost same since both using identical hardware)
Optical Zoom:- Canon G5 X has more optical zoom (4.2x) compare to Canon G9 X (3x). So due to more optical zoom of Canon G5 X , the users feel better experience in capturing the far subjects / compositions without walking towards the object at the same time they can also see the resulting images with more impressive and better quality.
Aperture range:- Canon G5 X has smaller aperture of F1.8-2.8, compared to G9X F2.0-4.9 aperture. So the small aperture of G5 X gains better depth of field as well as improved zone of sharpness compare to G9X. Canon G5 X will allow to fall more light into the sensor of the camera and in-turn you get better images with less noise and more dynamic range.
Image Stabilization: Both Canon G9 X as well as Canon G5 X has hybrid optical image stabilization which helps to minimize the camera shake during shooting still and video. It also reduces the unwanted hand shake along with various type of camera shake during photography, and supports better photography.
AF System:- Both the cameras G9 X and G5 X have similar contrast detect AF system, the contrast detect system.
ISO:- Both the cameras G9 X and G5 X have similar ISO range of 125-12800. While having the similar ISO range the both the camera will give you almost same images, but wait… the G5X offers better and bright lens and it will sure change the test results of the sensor.
Shutter speed:- As we know more the shutter speed, more the camera will have the capability to capture the fast action subjects. But here both the cameras G9 X and G5 X have similar shutter speed so both have the similar capacity to capture the moving subjects .
Top Continuous Shooting Speed:- Canon G9X has fast continuous speed of 6fps compare to G5X with 5.9fps. Hence, both the cameras have negligible difference in Top Continuous Shooting Speed. So both will gave the similar result during capturing fast action objects such as running train or flying birds.
Videos:- Canon G9 X as well as G5 X supports Full HD video recording at 60, 30 and 24fps also the movies are saved in the MP4 format.
View finder:- Canon G5 X has EVF viewfinder, which provides 100% frame coverage and supports the users to feel the better experience of live view image during photography and also allows the users to shoot better images in bright conditions comfortably. But view finder is absent in G9X.
Verdict: The Canon G5X will going to give you better image quality since the camera features better lens that will allow bit more light to pass through it, however the core specification of both the camera is almost same.

Sensor:- Sony DSC-RXIR II has a back-illuminated 35mm full-frame Exmor R CMOS sensor with 42MP resolution which more than its predecessor DSC-RXIR.
Not only resolution the new sensor uses BSI / back-illuminated sensor, with the help of BSI tech the camera will feature improve low-light sensitivity.
Due to its advanced image processor Bionz X, it maintains exceptional noise control under normal range of ISO 100-25600, which can be further expandable upto 50 – 1024002. The Bionz X helps the users to capture 42MP files @5fps whether the DSC-RXIR was limited to 24.3MP files @5fps.
Low Pass Filter:- Sony DSC-RXIR II has the world’s first Optical Variable Low Pass Filter, which supports the reduction of moiré caused by its high ISO. Due to its implementation, the users can manually balance the amount of filtration they need in the image.
Whereas RXIR has no optical low pass filter.

AF System:- Sony DSC-RXIR II sensor has 399 focal-plane phase-detection AF points which covers about 45% of the compositional area; by using the A7R II sensor it automatically gained the title of the world’s widest AF coverage on a compact full-frame sensor camera. While RXIR has 25 contrast sensors, which is very far behind of RXIR II.
RXIR II has 399 phase AF points is further fine-tuned its 25 contrast AF points, results upto 30% faster speed compare to its predecessor RXI R. Hence RXIR II can track the subject in full frame faster, sharper and with accuracy compare to RXI R.
ISO:- Sony DSC-RXIR II has standard range of ISO 100-25600, which can be further expandable upto 50 – 102400 while RXIR standard ISO allows you to set ISO between 100-25600 and the Expandable ISO range gives you ability to push your base ISO to 50. Hence the users get one more better to choose the Sony DSC-RXIR II over the RX1R.
Verdict: The specification of the recently announced Sony RX1R II is far better than of the old Sony RX1 R camera, the new camera features better sensor with hybrid AF system and BSI technology that will give you more details / ISO range while shooting in low light condition.
The other major advantage is introduction of high quality OLED will help you in shooting in harsh sunlight.
