Canon PowerShot SX10 IS
10.0 megapixels | 2.5" screen | 28 – 560 mm (20×)
The SX10 IS was a relatively subtle evolution of the S5 IS, and Canon didn't exactly break new ground here, but it addressed several of the key concerns we had with the SX10's predecessor (the lack of a wideangle lens, annoying SD card slot in the base, mediocre electronic viewfinder), and the result was a camera that upped the ante in this competitive sector of the market. In terms of image quality we found the SX10 to deliver excellent metering, bright but natural color and good edge to edge detail across the zoom range at lower ISO settings. Like all the cameras in this class the high ISO output was considerably less impressive, though it was one of the better performers at ISO 400-800.

When a 12X or even 15X zoom lens just isn't enough, Canon offers their new PowerShot SX10 IS. It offers a whopping 20X zoom lens (with a really nice 28 - 560 mm range), along with a 10 Megapixel CCD, full manual controls, hot shoe, rotating LCD display, and VGA movie mode. Photo quality is...
When a 12X or even 15X zoom lens just isn't enough, Canon offers their new PowerShot SX10 IS. It offers a whopping 20X zoom lens (with a really nice 28 - 560 mm range), along with a 10 Megapixel CCD, full manual controls, hot shoe, rotating LCD display, and VGA movie mode. Photo quality is generally very good, as long as you don't let the ISO wander too high (most notably in low light situations). Most of my complaints fit into the "well, it would be nice if it had..." category. I wish it had an HD movie mode, a larger LCD, and RAW support. But, taken as it comes, the PowerShot SX10 is a very good choice for those looking for a super zoom camera.

Canon’s PowerShot SX10 IS builds upon the already compelling S5 IS to deliver one of the best super-zoom cameras on the market. Canon’s kept the SLR-styled body of its predecessor with its decent grip, fully articulated 2.5in screen, manual control, AA battery power and external flash hotshoe, but switched the 12x optical zoom a much more powerful 20x range which starts wider and ends longer.
This new focal range transforms your experience with the SX10 IS over the earlier S5 IS. An...
