Re: New G7x II - macros ugh ugh ugh

Hi!

First of all, if you wanted a camera for macros you should have researched a bit more. The Canon G7X range have never been a good macro tool. I had the mk1 and macro was a joke! However you still can get macro photos with the G7X especially the mk2 if you are bit more patient.

I would suggest to choose macro AF or even better use manual focus and peaking and close the aperture to at least 2.8 to increase the DOF.
