Have a look at cameralabs review on the canon sx50 comparing both and I think overall the sx50 has better image quality. I use mine for portraits and indoors. Its pretty good for a point and shoot. It starts to get noisy above ISO800 but still reasonable images up to ISO1600 ( see image resource review).

Here is an image at ISO800 on auto SOOC with no PP.

Wow. I am amazed. Thanks for sharing, Steve.

Is ISO 800 enough to take pictures indoors zoomed without flash?

Depend on lighting, you can set the ISO to what you like. Flash works quite well up close. The canon sx50 is a great price at the moment. Indoors I barely go over ISO800. I did a photo of a group (50 people) in low light and it turned out quite well. It was shot at ISO 800 only lightly grainy when I blew it up to A3 or 30 x 20 cm - it was shot in auto mode though.

Cheers

Steve.
