Last updated 2026-09-24 — Some say the best way to make a man poor is to get him into DSLRs — and there’s truth to that. With DSLRs, the body is one cost, but equipping it with lenses costs far more. If you don’t have time to master photography skills and just want to meet everyday or travel photography needs, then a camera that combines...
        Just bring this on your trip — BenQ GH800 Wins World’s Best Travel Telephoto Camera of the Year

  At the 2011 World Travel Leaders Awards, BenQ made its mark by winning the “Travel Portable Leader” award with its first domestically produced 21X telephoto digital camera, the GH700, carving out a place for domestic brands. A year later, BenQ, already popular in the telephoto market, once again claimed the prestigious title of “Best Travel Telephoto Camera of the Year 2012” from Travel + Leisure magazine with its groundbreaking 36X telephoto digital camera, the GH800. Equipped with an 18-megapixel BSI CMOS sensor and a powerful 36X zoom lens, the BenQ GH800 delivers outstanding performance in telephoto, wide-angle, and macro photography, making it a versatile and ideal travel companion.

  It is reported that this year’s World Travel Awards and Travel Leaders selection were based not only on on-site voting via the “1001 Suitcases” campaign in Travel + Leisure magazine, but also on over ten thousand valid responses from China Outbound Travel Satisfaction Surveys conducted by Sohu Travel Channel and JingPin.com. The BenQ GH800’s recognition is not only a strong affirmation of its excellent quality, but also another tribute to BenQ’s leadership in elevating domestic digital brands. Some say travel is a life experience, a way to connect with your inner self. If so, then choosing a camera that’s easy to use and won’t frustrate you along the way is essential for any trip.

  When it comes to travel, keeping things light is key. Any unnecessary weight or bulk should be minimized. That’s why high-end, delicate professional DSLR cameras and their numerous accompanying lenses may not be the best choice for travel. On the road, you might want to capture distant landscapes, enjoy sweeping vistas, or seize the small details around or beneath your feet — meaning your camera needs to handle telephoto, wide-angle, and macro photography all at once, which is where ordinary compact cameras fall short. The BenQ 36X telephoto digital camera GH800 is designed precisely to meet travelers’ needs for an all-in-one solution, capable of both close-up and distant shots.

  The BenQ GH800 has the sleek, professional look of a DSLR. Though it doesn’t have interchangeable lenses, its 36X high optical zoom can instantly bring distant scenes up close, with image clarity as if they were right before your eyes. Its 1cm super macro mode lets you zoom in on flowers and plants, capturing the finest details. The 22.5mm wide-angle feature allows more people or scenery to fit into the frame without compromise. To ensure top image quality, the GH800 uses a high-performance 18-megapixel CMOS image sensor with high sensitivity (ISO up to 12800) and fast data transfer. Coupled with advanced optical image stabilization technology, it excels whether you’re shooting handheld at night or capturing dynamic motion.
