I'd side with those who recommend the SX50 as the better Canon super zoom.

I agree the SX50 is a better camera.

Regarding Amazon reviews: I'm guessing many of those have not used both the SX50 and SX60.

Anyone remember the S2IS?
That was my favorite.

My first digital was the S2IS and now in the hands of someone else.  For its day it was indeed a gem with decent IQ.  The tiny LCD and small zoom range seems dated now.  Even in the small overall size it used 4 AA batteries which was very desirable. Has there been much real progress?  Hmmm.
