Re: Canon G9X roaring sound in video and also "camera too hot" can only record 25fps always.

The g9x is a very new model so maybe it would still be under warranty with Canon? Usually they can check this based on the serial number even if you do not have proof of purchase- as long as it was manufactured less than a year ago they would probably fix it. Could be worth a try.

Then again, knowing now that you bought it off ebay, it is very possible that the camera WAS mishandled resulting in these issues. If you send it to Canon and they find an issue they may let you know that there would be a fee to fix it, but if you're not interested you can just have them send it back and only be out the shipping cost. In that worst case scenario I would look into filing a claim with ebay, if the listing was misleading they may be able to get you some kind of refund. Ebay actually has much better protection for buyers these days than they used to.
