Hi all,

A new review of the canon sx710: http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/canon_powershot_sx710_hs_review/conclusion/

They say its a drop in image quality comparing it to the sx700 because of the 20megapixels. What is canon doing going that high with the megapixels with such a small sensor.

Cheers

Steve.

We have been criticizing to many pixels for a long time. Sometimes they move too quickly, but we have to push the technology or we would still be using 3mp cameras.

I agree Ken, but sensor technology and lens quality also both need to keep up with the increase in pixel count.

I've said it before - look into a mirror.  I cant wait til image quality approaches that. Thats where sensor sensitivity and efficiency and ultra quality glass (or some other medium) and a LOT of pixels all come together.
