I hate how the display screen is not the best quality and I always think it was a horrible shot but when I import it into my computer it is literally PERFECT!
Nice Vid Francis. I would be amaze if you could mix the canon footage together with the SPARK or MAVIC air for more cinematic video. Anyway your Vid is always awsome. Umboxing Maybe Ronin or The Osmo Mobile 2. Peace😋
Video looks fine, but the audio is terrible! The lack of external mic port on the G7x II is a total fail IMHO and means it just doesn’t seem like the best option. Now I appreciate that for the size and price, an external mic port is asking a lot but...
yep but there is no shutter speed 120, there is 100 which is exact shutter speed for 50 fps ;) Anyway for 60fps you can use shutter speed 125, but it will bring darker video, right?
Congratulations! Still the best vlogging camera 'till date. Got mine on 2018 and I still love using it more than my M50. P.S TIP NO.1 is very important! remember G7X MII is great when it comes to low light / indoor situation, but with NDFilter-ON . . . boom! your footage is completely ruined. Just like what happened to my previous travel vlog:(
I agree it's a great little camera. Way underrated. I traded in my bulky dslr gear for the G7Xii and never regretted it. So small and light weight yet mostly metal build. It has features my dslr didn't have. The compact size has giving me the freedom to shoot when I would have left bigger gear at home. I'm just getting into the video use though. Your tips will help out. Cheers!
@@MukhlisSabir I would go for the G7X III has a few additional features like I believe an external mic jack. I'm not a vlogger so that isn't a feature I need. Aside from that, I'm very happy with the camera. All depends on your needs.
Seems like his entire online presence has stopped except for his Twitter page which on the 21st September added a bunch of Spanish soap opera episodes to a playlist.
Had my G7Xii for quite a while now and i've completely not made the most of it. This video was so digestible though that it's going to up my game for sure. LEGEND
Hi.... I totally agree the canon G7xll is an amazing little camera.... I just got mine and I’m loving it.... thanx for the five tips for keeping it in auto mode... very helpful....loving your work....
Thanks for the tips Francis. I have a question? I have just bought a Rode Video microphone for my G7X Mark ii and an innov extension lead to fit into the USB port. Also, I purchased a Cold shoe mount . However, the microphone doesn't seem to work which is frustrating as I wanted an up grade on the inbuilt mic. Why is this happening?....Do I need to buy a Rode extension lead or perhaps the Rode video mic is just faulty? Thanks.
Can you pleeaassee make more cinematic videos with this camera, or showing how to make them with this camera! Cuz this is the Camera I have I really love the way you film!
Francis Darracott yes! it’s all good but i have a problem with importing my video on my computer ( windows) do you know how i can solve this? thank you😊
Very helpful! These tips will definitely help my video making, thanks! I've been using the G7X mark ii for about a year now and I love it. Feel free to check out my channel and provide feedback!
I’ve been thinking about getting the G7xii for a while now, even though if I’m being honest with myself I don’t really reeeeally need it... I have a Fuji XT2 as my main camera, which I love and use a lot (it’s also pretty portable being a mirrorless), and I wanted a smaller camera to always have in my bag “just in case”. A few months ago I bought the Lumix LX100 (the older model, there was a big discount on it) but I haven’t really used it as I hoped, and now I regret having bought that instead of the Canon - and after watching your video this feeling is even stronger (no ND filter on the Lumix and the stabilization looks better on the Canon as well, also the Lumix is bigger and I leave it at home anyway).. I might just sell the Lumix and get the Canon.......
As usual Francis, awesome.... Question please... I have a Panasonic HC-V130 some years old now, time to retire it and get the CanonG7Xii.... Comment please. I've used Power Shot A2000IS before it also is getting on in years but it was good for it's day... Cheers Roger
My Canon G7X Mark II arrives tomorrow. Of all the videos I've watched so far on YT about the camera yours has been the best! I'll be getting absolutely nothing accomplished today except learning from all of your videos...so, yeah, that's definitely SOMETHING! Thank you.
A lensmate filter kit for the g7xii ? Got one myself. I believe nice for mountain landscape shots. Maybe good subject for tutorial? And by the way great video. THANKS!
Thank you you for all of these tips esp tip 1 and how to achieve it. I currently have mines set exactly how I need it but these additional tips are great! ❤
Hi Francis, terrific video and tips. Thanks for that. Proper job. ;-) I do have a question for you. We currently use a Canon PowerShot SX720 HS as a simple point-and-shoot camera, mainly for photographs when our Canon EOS80D is to bulky. The Canon PowerShot SX720 HS is soooo slow when focusing and shooting photographs. Have you used the G7Xii photograph function and anything you can say about that?
Nice video dude. I was really torn between the g7x mkii and the g5x and in the end went for the g5x but only due to having a viewfinder. Realised it doesn't have time lapes though dam it.. I reckon you have ordered a dji osmo. ;)
Great video Francis got the Canon g7x mark ii myself the mic on top of the Canon you get wind rumble so I cut a peace of fur off my mams coat problem solved
Nice vid. I loved the canon G7X Mkii for the visual quality other than a bit of auto focus hunting sometimes, but the audio I find is it’s weakest attribute - especially the sound of the autofocus from the lens. So I changed to the M6, though not as good in low light - compromise I guess.
Nice Video Francis, so clear and right to point. I got my g7x last wk and loving too like yourself. Your tips are on point I can't wait to shot with it trying your tips. I'm a new subscriber love what you are doing. Keep it going. Thank you
Great video Francis! I also have a G7xII And I did know the most off what you said! I watch the video anyway because I Like you as a person =) Keep it up!!
Actually I am really sad that you didn't pin someone or that the pin got lost over the years. Would be cool to see what video you choose back then.
I hate how the display screen is not the best quality and I always think it was a horrible shot but when I import it into my computer it is literally PERFECT!
Caleb Eckenrode same mate
Ha yea, same happens to me!!
We bought the g7x mark ii last month 😍
Crackin' video mate, thanks for the solid advice. My G7X just arrived today and I'm uber excited
Nice Vid Francis. I would be amaze if you could mix the canon footage together with the SPARK or MAVIC air for more cinematic video. Anyway your Vid is always awsome.
Umboxing
Maybe Ronin or The Osmo Mobile 2. Peace😋
Aaron Wee This vid was filmed using the DJI Spark and Canon G7X Mkii 👍
You unboxing the DJI ronin?

would this work with mark i?
Hi
Excellent tips.
Can anyone help?
My camera keeps going into sleep mode every 10 seconds.
How do I turn it off? .
Thank you
Did you figure it out
Hey Francis tip number SIX: change your settings to NTSC and the magic of true 24fps AND 60fps becomes available. 😉
yep but there is no shutter speed 120, there is 100 which is exact shutter speed for 50 fps ;) Anyway for 60fps you can use shutter speed 125, but it will bring darker video, right?
What is ntsc???
So inspired to level up my creativity with my G7X now!
i just bought a G7X (i know it's 2 years later right!) and this is the first video Im watching. Thank you for the top tips!
Congratulations! Still the best vlogging camera 'till date. Got mine on 2018 and I still love using it more than my M50.

thanks for the information, I will also exchange my dslr soon for this small camera. I don't know anymore. it's 2022.

Great video! I couln't find the way to lock the exposure in auto mode though. It's only available in P, Tv or Av modes...
Hi..Recording video in which option is better "auto or manual" ?? Please reply..i mean vlogging?
My camera doesn't know exposure lock * and high IS option... Any Ideas?
I love mine, I was thinking about getting the mk iii but they seem to have overheating issues so I’ve stuck to my mk ii
Two mins in and i've learnt quite a bit, thank u
Can you pleeaassee make more cinematic videos with this camera, or showing how to make them with this camera! Cuz this is the Camera I have I really love the way you film!
Wanted to ask you I only have iPhone to how do I make video I only have Ivdeo form
iPhone. I’m s there any apps for making video
Thanks
Really appreciate this! Have just opened my new g7x mark ii today and this the most clear vid I have watched yet!
How to stop the clicking sound I find in post videos
I am very much confused if i should shoot raw or which one is the best?
Anything special for export settings ?

Very useful. Thanks
Portrait sucks in this camera
Is this a 4k quality vdo?
I love you based on this video
I love this camera to except for the microphone 🎙 😰
thanks bro
export settings?
Well, my wife isn't going to be happy. Now I want that camera!
I'm going to guess that you're either getting a DJI Osmo Mobile 2 or a Zhiyun Crane.
@Francis Darracott, based on your most recent Instagram, it looks like I may have been right about the Crane!
electric skateboard
I just got my Canon and tried it out on my channel! It’s awesome ☺️
Really great video. Thanks for sharing the 5 tips that will help me a ton
Love the video bro 😎
Osmo?
Gimbal?

Thanks for sharing this great discover. I just have my canon g7x ii too and youve been a great help.
Where did you find your music for this vlog?
*video (specifically for the ~cinematic shots~)
Drone
Great video! Thanks for the tips!
You got a follow/subscribe for this - and I might just buy one of these just from watching this video. Well done!
Can’t wait to use these tips when I start blogging lol
U r just amazing Francis...u bring the best out of any device....
One more thing..if u change ur video format to PAL then u can get 60 fps
MilesAndHeights Shouldn’t that be NTSC? That’s usually 30 or 60fps, and PAL is 25/50
HellbellyUK Yes yeah..I always get confused between the two...Thank you 😊

Nice pics ! ...do u think fixing a Magfilter is a must ?
I have a lot of tips from you filming and fly with the DJI Spark. Van you also give tips and trics filming with a gimball
A lensmate filter kit for the g7xii ? Got one myself. I believe nice for mountain landscape shots. Maybe good subject for tutorial? And by the way great video. THANKS!
"...you little bad ass" You got that right. This awesome camera is exactly that!
Thank you you for all of these tips esp tip 1 and how to achieve it. I currently have mines set exactly how I need it but these additional tips are great! ❤
Hello Francis you have wonderful videos, but do you think you could upload more drone magic air videos?
Hi Francis, terrific video and tips. Thanks for that. Proper job. ;-)
I do have a question for you. We currently use a Canon PowerShot SX720 HS as a simple point-and-shoot camera, mainly for photographs when our Canon EOS80D is to bulky. The Canon PowerShot SX720 HS is soooo slow when focusing and shooting photographs. Have you used the G7Xii photograph function and anything you can say about that?
I thought it has a 60fps? Other reviews said so. Are there variations on this model or depending what country it's released?
It's been a year. Canon G7X III will come out soon. Please do a review on it. I like how informative your channel is.
Nice video dude. I was really torn between the g7x mkii and the g5x and in the end went for the g5x but only due to having a viewfinder. Realised it doesn't have time lapes though dam it.. I reckon you have ordered a dji osmo. ;)
Great video Francis got the Canon g7x mark ii myself the mic on top of the Canon you get wind rumble so I cut a peace of fur off my mams coat problem solved
Thank you, Francis for these tips. Looking forward to applying them and trying out new things 👍
very helpful tips! also love the white balance in this video omg
Super helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Nice vid. I loved the canon G7X Mkii for the visual quality other than a bit of auto focus hunting sometimes, but the audio I find is it’s weakest attribute - especially the sound of the autofocus from the lens. So I changed to the M6, though not as good in low light - compromise I guess.
ur really good at explaining, appreciate it
Waiting for your next video dog.. mavic 2 out now, your thoughts?
Great video! It’s been helpful!
Is it worth upgrading to the iii?
I haven't tried it out, but i have heard that the 4K is a bit soft on the mark iii, so not really worth upgrading from the ii
Omg we are local to each other! ❤️ this is super helpful because I just got one of these thank you!
Your video helped me so much!! Thank you! I see you have way surpassed the 5K sub mark and congrats!
Thank you Anna!

Thank you! So much better than so many other videos I've seen.
Small youtuber here and just bought this camera!! Thanks for all the tips!😍
The king/ queen of your TH-cam chaneeeel! It is a DJI Ronin hahahahha - hopefully! - ... aweeeeesome Footage of Oxford! Love it!
This video was very informative with no filler :D thank you!
Good one! Thoroughly enjoyed this video had my eye on the g7xmkii for a long time.. its such a beautiful little camera.
Its time to save up for one:)
Great tips !!
Frances, where did you go? Missing your stuff.
Which camera you suggest now in September 2019 for blogging?
First I thought it would be the BR-E1 remote like I just got but I think it is a gimbal.
Are you still enjoying the new camera. Looks forward to some more footage with it. Great informative video mate thanks
