Canon Powershot G7X Mark III Walkthrough

[@celestejustine]

Oh my gosh this video was amazing. I bought this camera and I was so excited. It's my first camera. But then when it came, instead of feeling excited I felt so overwhelmed bc I know nothing about cameras. This video made me feel so much more comfortable and confident and now I am super excited about using my new camera! Thank you so much

[@Meta369]

Hi there, I use a USB cable to get the videos to my computer. For some reason it does not transfer the video I want, but all the videos I don't. What the heck do you think is going on. I am use to using my P900 and this canon is driving me sick.

[@nyonsexy3995]

This is exactly what I’ve been searching for on KZbin but didn’t just find something as explicit as this. Thank you

[@madisonozment]

This is a very helpful video! Just bought my g7x mark lll today and I know NOTHING about cameras. Thank you so much!

This video needs more views I had my camera for a couple says now. This video is going to make me enjoy my camera more than I already do. I for one am very thankful for the time you took to make this video.

I just got my new camera April 7th 2022. And I was so confused about how to use it. I tell you camera’s have definitely changed, they’re like a mini computer. I bought this camera for vlogging. Your video was so helpful. Thank you!

[@Winis_World]

I have to say, this video is absolutely brilliant! I just bought this Camera, and started filming with it today, and I was quite confused (even though I previously had the G7 ii and assumed it would be more or less the same. Thanks so much for this video!

[@Annie_..]

Thank you for sharing this. Just purchased this camera yesterday and I noticed the firmware was already updated to 1.3 so I’m guessing I don’t need to worry about updating. Is it safe to say that AF problem was resolved with the update, as well as the heating problem that happens when filming in 4K for close to ten minutes? Have you done an update on your camera? Would love to see one if not, as I am still learning. Again, thank you for sharing this bit of information for the ones who are new to this type of technology. Looking forward to more videos like this, have a great day!

[@newtonsantos_photo963]

Thaaaaaank you for sharing it !!! Great vídeo... quite simple, useful and direct, helping us a lot for sure. I was looking for a replacement for my old EOS SLR and, now I am quite sure that G7X Mark III is the one. See ya, keep cool, take care 🏞️

This video was good, but just for a clarification, the format option does the same thing it lables the files as overwriteable but it overwrites them itself so that no one can see them and so I don't think this has a major effect on the life expectancy of your SD card

[@Shutterbug101]

There definitely shouldn't be any major color casts in your video. Maybe try resetting the camera in the menu to factor settings? If that doesn't work I would take it back to where you purchased it as there may be something wrong.

[@jeffcesta2493]

Quick question- I somehow adjusted some setting that prevents me from recording a video for more than 4 seconds (in the movie camera icon function). It just automatically shuts off the recording. Can you help???? Thanks!

[@Shutterbug101]

Hello Jeff! That’s very odd. First things first, I would reset the camera in the setup menu. Then, if the media already on your card (if any) is backed up to your computer, go into the menu and format the card to ensure it is clear of any data preventing you from taking video. Let me know if anything changes!

[@marycahir6534]

I'm awaiting my camera, video is fantastic, I'll be using mine in housing for scuba diving. Would you recommend blue setting as irish waters can be murky

[@Shutterbug101]

You will want to use your Program mode and set your white balance to choose your kelvin temperature. If you want the water to appear more blue, set the number to around 5000K. To get more accurate colors and less blue in blue waters, I recommend around 6000K. Have fun!

[@timrosenthal46]

Thank you, that was fantastic.

[@Mark-vb3pz]

Please help me at 18:15 in your video you tell how to delete one photo please tell me how to delete all photos at one time ! Thanks Mark

If you have already backed up your photos to a computer or cloud/hard drive and you are ready to clear out your card completely, go to your menu and format your card.

I’m having some pretty good issues with auto focusing anybody else having these issues?

Is it just failing focus or is it jumpy? In what situations is it giving you a hard time? Far away, close or both? Low light?

[@THEMOWERMEDIC1]

@@Shutterbug101 say I’m filming at a distance of 5’ and I walk up and show a part up close the camera lags as I come closer. Sometimes I have to cut that section a video out when I edit and then re-film it After I have manually focused it If you have time watch my latest video about seal removal you can see what I’m talking about

[@Shutterbug101]

@@THEMOWERMEDIC1 I did find there was difficulty on it adjusting focus moving closer to a subject as well. This camera was really built to vlog with the selfie screen and take decent photographs. There isn't any control options on how fast the focus should be which is a bummer, the best thing you can do is ensure the Movie Servo AF is enabled in the menu>first tab>page 8. Hopefully that helps you!

You offer so much valuable information in a pleasant, concise, and understandable way. I currently have an older LUMIX LX7 and while it has some incredible features, I am looking to “upgrade” to something that has a movable touch screen, also a viewfinder, and maybe changeable lenses, all while retaining a small form factor for ease of carrying. Are there any cameras you have used that you would recommend or suggest? Thanks for your great review!

[@4maris.]

hii!! Whenever i click the playback button to look at photos and videos my screen looks high tech and completely different from when i first got my camara, please help!!

When you are looking at that screen in the playback mode, press your DISP button to change the display until you are happy with it :)

Could you show us how to use the fish eye mode while vlogging? I can only work out how to use it for an image

[@destevens56]

Hi do you know how to set the asterisk button to custom white balance for under water photos?

If you go to your menu>wrench tab>page 5, the top option is to customize your function buttons. You should be able to assign your * button there.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

How do you set the camera for face recognition? I have purchased the Canon G7X Mark lll, but cannot find that setting on my camera!!

[@Shutterbug101]

You can access the Focus Method/Area through the Quick menu, or if you go to the actual menu, 1st tab (red camera tab)>Page 6>Focus Method> Make sure the AF face symbol option is chosen. This should allow the camera to pick up human faces, but WITHOUT masks.

[@AlexAlodo]

Just got this camera; when i press the on/off button, the shutters for the lenses don't open...? So it says "no image." - i messed with the dial and nothing happened... Am I missing something? This came used so no instructions...

[@Shutterbug101]

What happens when you tap the shutter button?

[@AlexAlodo]

@@Shutterbug101 Where can that be found? I ended up using a plastic card and poking at the four corners of the shutters gently and it worked, I think one of the shutter bars was jammed or something.

[@Shutterbug101]

Glad it worked for you! Sometimes the shutters in the front of the lens can get mucked up with dirt, dust and grime so they can periodically get stuck, but it shouldn't effect the picture taking quality as long as you can get them open.

[@BobbyBrady2000]

can you use a bluetooth remote with bulb mode?

[@Shutterbug101]

You should be able to, yes.

[@IoniAppelberg]

Thanks for a great and instructional video! I have two questions I hope you can answer as you seem very knowledgable and it would greatly help me. 1) When I use my G7x iii, I get exposure problems even if I lock the exposure. I use the camera with a ring light for recording youtube videos. I start filming, lock the exposure, and when I look at the footage after it sometimes flickers and changes the exposure from one frame to the next. Super annoying. Do you have a solution for this? I shoot in 1/50 and 25 fps. 2) When I import the footage into final cut pro, the audio is out of sync with the video. Do you have a fix for this? Thank you so much!

what do you think is the best setting for taking instagram photos?

[@Shutterbug101]

It really depends on what your photographing, but in general the automatic mode works great!

There was a lot of backlash when g7x MK iii and g5x MK ii came out (both are very similar) especially the tracking issues, but since the updates It has improved based on yt videos and research, I was wondering how is the camera after a few years of it’s release?

[@Shutterbug101]

If you are looking for something primarily for vlogging, other manufacturers have come far on creating models like the Panasonic G100, Sony ZV1 or the new Sony EZV10, that really blow these guys out of the water. They may not have the tie with KZbin that These do, but the quality is undeniable.

[@katyfitzgerald1212]

[@Shutterbug101]

I don’t have the model in my hands at the moment but I reached out to my Canon rep just in case and once you set it to fisheye, you should just have to press your red record button.

[@damolalawal2210]

If I may ask which mode is perfect for Vlogging

[@Shutterbug101]

Because vlogging is video based, I would definitely say the video mode in auto exposure until your ready to take on manual exposure :)

[@muzammiljamal7269]

Hi there. I have this camera I bought it it for live streaming. I have link it with canon gateway and even KZbin. But I get an error when I try to stream Err127. Do you know how to solve this. If yes pls tell me

[@Shutterbug101]

The live stream feature is granted to those who have over 30K subscribers (I would like to try it myself but I’m not close to being there yet!), so you will have to use it like a webcam through the canon utility app and USB cord if it is a supported model or use a capture card with an HDMI cord.

[@ipstar]

Are there issues with the Autofocus on G7x Mark iii?

[@Shutterbug101]

Not that I noticed outright, but could possibly struggle in low light or lack of detailed areas.

[@glownbeauty1059]

How do you blur the background for video recording?

[@Shutterbug101]

It is difficult with most point and shoots to achieve the blurred background effect. The best way to achieve this is put it in A mode, make the F stop/aperture the lowest number it can go, and make sure whatever is in the foreground is as far from the background as possible. The father it is, the blurrier it will be.

so i just got this for my birthday. im 10 years old and i wanna start vloging. so in video mode can you stop the video in mid video then start it somewhere else or a diffrent time (ex: you are doing a all nighter vid. you want to stop it but come back and have the other footage still being on there.) so could you do that? or do you have to start a new video? if you have to start a new video what is a good app to edit it together on a chromebook? thats what i wanna edit on. PLEASE REPLY ty.

[@Shutterbug101]

Hello Jillian! Congratulations on your new camera! So most cameras do not have the ability to continue the video where you left off, so you will have to combine your video clips in a video editing program. I believe the chrome book has its own free program that should be fairly easy to use, KZbin is good for that too!

Thank you! I've had this camera for about a year, and have bumbled through how to use it. I only use it to try to make a video maybe every other week. However, I really want to learn to use its other functions. Today, we had the most beautiful and huge, fully formed snowflakes falling outside for hours, and I was so excited to use this camera to try to get some close-up detailed photos using the Tulip (macro) mode. It would not let me focus on the snowflakes at all. When it would focus (not very close though), I could not zoom in, and when I tried to take the photo, pressing the photo button down caused it to instantly go blurry. Yes, I had it stabilized so it wasn't moving. I tried several different things, all to no avail. My very old smart phone did a much better job of taking the photos, like MUCH better. So, I know I must need a lot of help in how to use this camera. Is there any way you could do some videos on how to use this camera to optimize certain specific uses like the one I mentioned? I find the Canon site has very little on this camera, which is quite disappointing. It seems like this camera has so much potential... I just need to learn how to use it and what stuff means! Thanks for considering this!

[@Shutterbug101]

Hello Stacy! So sorry your having issues getting your desired results. This camera does fairly well when it comes to point and shoot video and vlogging, but its special features like macro mode performs poorly. I have found over time Canon and Nikon point and shoot cameras do not excel past the point and shoot description, while Panasonic has really taken it to a new level where their special features and macro modes have been pretty mind blowing. If you have any other questions please let me know!
