Canon Power Shot G7 Mark 3.
Are any users of this camera willing to comment? Thanks.
I don't have one for 2 reasons, 100mm (35 equiv) isn't enough for me, it has no viewfinder.
Thanks. I like a camera with a view finder. I had a G11 which I loved but a thief needed it so it went away.Great camera.
I bought a used one last year for a cruise to Mexico. I was very pleased with the results. Small enough to put in your pocket, decent resolution and ergonomic grip. I sold it to get the SONY RX100VII mostly because of the range to 200mm on the long end. If 24-100 is enough for your needs, I would still recommend it as it is priced more reasonably than the SONY I bought. I had to buy an aftermarket grip which the Canon does not need as the body already has that feature. The lack of a view finder was not an issue for me. Still better than the ergonomics of shooting with a cell phone.

The Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II has pop-up one.

I bought the G7 III in May of this year to use as a travel camera on our trip to Italy in July. The camera is great and the photos out of it are wonderful. It is a great little camera and you will not go wrong in buying it. See my photos from that trip taken with the G7 III posted here in July and August and then decide.

You might consider a G9X replacement. Fits safely in a pocket, being roughly the size of a deck of cards.

"I sold it to get the SONY RX100VII"
My DW gave me one for Christmas last year. Most amazing camera I've had and I've been taking pictures for so long that I don't know how many that is.
At nearly half the price the PowerShot G7 X Mark III is probably a better choice.
My "soap box stand" is that cameras of this size with their (1" sensors) are more useful than bigger cameras. Technology has moved the small sensor forward far enough that image quality is not an issue. More important, travel photography results are better when the camera is more inconspicuous.
