Re: The successor of SX40 HS announced next week or 14 days :)

My thoughts are, going up on the sensor to 14.1mp and increasing zoom to 42x is going in the wrong direction. We have seen it done before many times to no avail on small sensor cams like these. However Canon brought great hope with the stellar image quality of the SX40/35x super zoom cam. I will give Canon the benefit of the doubt with the SX50 that maybe it will be just as good or better than the SX40?
Time will tell.

On another note as far as I can tell the FZ200's images cannot hold a candle to the SX40's based on the samples I have seen so far, although the video samples I have viewed are pretty darn good.
