CES opens on Jan. 8, 2018. Which Powershot cameras do you think or want Canon to introduce at the show? Listed are three of the oldest cameras in the lineup, but add any comments below the poll.

Will not be surprised, and hoping for, G7XM3.

Ditto... I love my M2 hoping they go with a APC sensor and longer focal length without increasing the physical size. Is it possible to do?

Probably not possible- I think the g7x lens is already pushing the limits and you see that in its sharpness (or lack of in some situations). It is just a matter of physics and tradeoffs.

The g1x iii would be fairly close in size if it didn't have the viewfinder, but still is a bit bigger, and has less zoom reach. Panasonic's ZS100 has more zoom but a slower lens, and is still bigger than the g7x. Sony limited the rx100 series to a shorter reach to avoid such issues.

It will be hard to get much better than the G7x's sensor size and lens reach without getting much bigger, until a serious advance in technology comes along. Until then, everything will be baby steps.
