This is yet another example of just how backwards the camera manufacturers are.

The G9 uses at most 1.5A. The USB port of the G9 is so pathetically underpowered that it can't even deliver more than 1A. The remainder must be supplied by the internal battery.

What a joke in an era of USB-C ports that can charge laptops, and yes, smartphones, at 80W or more!

Trying really hard to take a shot at my G9 eh? Good luck with that, it stomps holes in your phones. Good thing your phone can charge during use bc new models can't change batteries anymore Now that's a joke and one that isn't funny...
