Is the canon powershot g5 x mark ii worth buying used?

I think it's a good used buy, as long as the price is right. The G5 X Mark II, announced in 2019, has a 1-inch sensor, a pop-up viewfinder, and a bright 24-119mm-equivalent zoom in a pocket-sized body. Its age is what makes it appealing secondhand. As I say in buying used, a body a generation or two old often gives you most of the camera for much less.

Compare it with the older Canon PowerShot G5 X, which has a built-in viewfinder, and the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II, which has the same bright zoom range. Check the used prices of all three side by side.

Whichever you pick, budget for a new genuine battery. Old batteries lose capacity fast, and the batteries section explains why.
