Sensor in the mft realm is as good as it gets until you get into the gh5 and up range (pricey).
Stabilization for video is okay, you can check YouTube videos for this.
The kit lens is also decent and well reviewed.
For $370 you won't find better image quality anywhere else.
Most importantly, size and weight are unrivaled in this class. This thing fits in my medium sized fanny pack with no problems and was great on my recent family trip.
Sure you can get an Rx100 or ricoh gr iii for maximum portability but then you have a smaller one inch sensor and lose the ability to swap out lenses.
If you're on the fence you should buy it and take advantage of eBay's easy returns if you end up not liking it.

I've been using the Sony ZV-1 for my YouTube videos for the last few years.
(I use a tripod, never handheld if that helps)
looking to upgrade to something better than my Canon m200 with the 22mm.
A Canon EOS M camera with the 22mm f/2 is still one of my favorite setups when I want something very compact. To beat that you've really got to spend considerably more.
The only reason to consider switching is if Canon's very limited EF-M mount native lens selection is a major issue for you, and you'll be investing in more M43 lenses.
I definitely wouldn't want to pay $370 for a G100 new though, much less refurbished. The main, really only, benefit of buying a G100 is that it has a newer and better sensor than most of the cheaper used M43 models. Otherwise it's one of the most uncomfortable cameras I've ever held (although the M200 is bad in that regard as well) and overall kind of mediocre.

Helpful review here that talks about the positives and the shortcomings of this camera.

In my mind, G100 is better in every way than G7, unless you actually want a bulkier body to match your big fancy lens.
Both machines lack IBIS, however.
I heard that there is a hack to unlock unlimited recording but never tried myself.

This is a great 2nd or 3rd camera for interview/tripod videos since the sensor provides a really nice 1080p 24fps and still one of the smaller newer mirrorless cameras available.
For my needs it works. Bought the body like new from Adorama for $200 2 years ago.
