if you paid $430 or less you got the g9x. The mark II is $530. While the same lens and I think sensor, the g9x MarkII uses Digic 7 and will up the raw time from once a second ( unacceptable) to between 7 and 9 fps. I'm very pleased with mine, but unless it says Mark II on the top panel, it's the first model.

Diego. If in manual focus on the Mark Ii, not that many portions of a turn needed. Not smooth, but silent detents When you rotate the ring.  A distance scale appears mainly for between 2 and 5 ft but goes to infinity.  Also you can touch up/down arrows but mine is set to beep, where the ring changes don't .
