On the whole, very happy with mine. The lack of a viewfinder took a lot of adjusting to, but it's a lovely little camera and we use it quite a lot.

On the downside, the dust sealing is TERRIBLE. Crud gets in far too easily, and it is a non-trivial exercise to clean it. It's certainly not something you can do yourself. It cost around $300 to have it pulled apart, cleaned, and reassembled. (That's about $200 US.) Black mark Canon.

But we love it just the same, and ponied up the money to have it fixed.

Have you try vacuum method, I saw someone do it on G7X. Just start the camera, pull out the battery so that lens stays extended, vacuum the whole lens
