YouTube has generated a lot of opportunities for the content creators, and the one thing that has become popular with the emergence of YouTube is Vlogging. Many of the tech companies are now focussing on building tools for those vloggers, among which one company is Cannon. Canon has just announced the new joinees for its vlogger camera PowerShot G7 X line, the G7 X III and a redesigned Canon PowerShot G5X Mark II, equipped with even more useful features than their predecessors.
Both the cameras are the look-alike of the previously launched cameras of the same series and have been built to target specifically the YouTubers and the bloggers. The G7 X III is boasting the new Stack technology and having the support for uncropped 4K video recording at 30 frames a second as well 1080p video recording 120 frames a second. The feature that will attract most of the YouTubers, is the live YouTube video streaming. Yes, the G7 X III when connected to wifi, allows the users to stream live on YouTube. The camera also renders the support for an external mic, such that the users can record the live audio in the best quality.
The users can also schedule their live stream and record it, as to edit and upload it later to any of the social media platforms. The camera is perfect for recording vertical and Instagram videos. The camera also boasts support for mobile-friendly portrait video.
On the other hand, the G5X Mark II is a revamped premium version of PowerShot G5X, which is a compact-lightweight camera. The centre mounted EVF has been removed from the camera, instead, it has got the pop-up EVF and the pop-up flash now appears over its top deck. The camera now has got a new panoramic shooting mode, and a longer 24-120mm 5x optical zoom lens. Since G5X Mark II is more focused on photography, it does not have a pre-installed YouTube app for live streaming like G7 X III.
Both the cameras are backed by Canon’s DIGIC 8 image processors and feature 20-megapixel 1-inch stacked CMOS sensors. According to the company, the G7 X III will be available in two colour variants, i.e. black and silver, whereas the G5 X Mark II will only be available in black. The cost set for G7 X III is $899, while the G5 X Mark II will cost $749. Both cameras will be in stores in early August.
