1.04 million dots 18MP APS-C CMOS sensor DIGIC 6 image processor Hybrid CMOS AutoFocus II 100-12,800 ISO (expandable to 25,600) Up to 1/4000th of a second shutter speed 4.6 fps continuous shooting 1920 x 1080 video recording Wi-Fi NFC 108 x 66.6 x 35mm Approx. Design and Construction Being a compact shooter, the G3X is strict on maintaining its bulk to a minimum so we have a seemingly oversized lens attached to a timid body. The body itself is made of metal alloy which is tough and weather-resistant so you could still use the camera and shoot during light rain showers or during any instance that the weather could be a bit harsh. Up top, we have the hot shoe for an additional flash, the main control ring, wheel and physical dials lined up for navigating the shooting modes and different settings. It also has a plastic flap that hides the external microphone jack, headphone jack, and HDMI output terminal that all help when shooting videos. In general, holding the camera up when shooting offers a pretty steady balance thanks to the contoured grip on the right side and the kind of heft it packs. It can be tilted up to 180 degrees upwards for selfies and 45 degrees downwards which resulted to comfortable viewing either when we were shooting up or shooting down.
