LCD Screen Display Huawei Ascend P7
It seems it has the critical features you need. It should be worth it then. Bear in mind that for video, use a camcorder and for pictures, use a camera. They are different.
I have a G7x. It's nice, not perfect. Compact enough to fit in a belt pouch, although a fairly large one. I got a Lowepro Portland 30, now discontinued. It actually can fit into a Portland 20, but not with a Manfrotto 200PL quick release plate left on it. At 24mm very good center sharpness but some noticeable corner softness. Very sharp at 100mm. Less noise than a 1/1.7" sensor camera, but more than a Micro Four Thirds. The high ISO noise reduction can be turned down a notch from the default, but not as much as I'd like, so even at ISO 400 there is a little smudgy noise reduction artifact. No hot shoe--price for being compact. Some controls are a bit too sensitive. Easy to turn video button (Digitizer Glass Lnes Lenovo A7 50 A3500) on or off by accident.
It has in-camera, one touch HDR buried in the Image Effects (creative filters). It really doesn't seem to improve dynamic range at all. I have seen that feature in the Panasonic ZS50 work much better.
It can do HDR the old-fashioned way. Shooting a tripod mounted, manual exposure, three shot bracketing series in RAW, and processing them in Digital Photo Professional. The DPP version that works with G7x RAW files requires Windows 7 or later--no Windows XP. Older versions of DPP that work in Windows XP won't open G7x RAW files. No CD in box. DPP is available hidden in canon.com site LCD Display Digitizer HTC-One-M7 if you register camera online and enter serial number to get your DPP download.
The G7x lacks a viewfinder. Some say that's awful. Actually I have found that the tilting LCD allows some positions where the camera can be eld close to the torso, shielding out the bright direct sunshine, So that's not the kiss of death to me.
The built in microphone has good clarity, if there is no wind. A slight breeze brings noticeable wind noise. There is no outlet for external microphone.
The G7x has a reputation for running down batteries quickly. If the touch screen function is turned off, it doesn't. The touch screen could be good to have in some situations. It can allow quick accurate autofocus. The face detect autofocus usually works well.
Some reviewers write that if touch screen Lenovo S8 S898T is turned off there is no manual selection of an autofocus point other than the center. Not true, but the trick is kind of buried. Going deep down into the menu to "Set Ring Func button", that can be custom set to enable the autofocus point with the controller.
Exposure time up to 250 seconds, but really if light is dim enough to require more than 60 seconds at base ISO, there is a lot of hot pixel noise. No long exposure noise reduction cycle.
In P or A setting, slowest time is 1 second. If you need more you have to switch to Tv for up to 15", or M for up to 250" (but as stated above not really useful at that long an exposure).
From a photographer's viewpoint, the G7X is a great little compact camera with a large sensor, touch LCD Screen-Panel, and good zoom. For vlogging, not so much. A camcorder would be much better -- and much cheaper.
As a camera for shooting still images of your friends, neighbors, family and travels, yes it is.
But you want to vlog. For that you need a nice camcorder. JVC, Panasonic, Sony and Canon make excellent camcorders which shoot Full HD video. They all have articulated LCD Display Panel KCG057QVLDG-G220 KCG057QVLDG-G210 KCG057QVLDG-G77's and good optical zoom lenses
What you will have to add, no matter what camera you chose is a sturdy tripod, fluid head, good lighting (one key and one fill light that are at least 500 watts) and an external sound recorder like the Zoom H1 or H4n to record pristine sound. Still cameras with a video feature are notorious for producing very poor sound and the same goes for any video camera that does not have XLR audio inputs (typically these cost from $7,000 and up) Back Battery Door Cover Housing Repair For Asus PadFone Infinity A80
