Re: choosing a travel zoom. HX90V or ZS50/TZ71

Thanks opticsengineer for your info on Lithium ion batteries. I'll certainly read up more on that although I never had that issue with my sx260.

Also thanks to the other folk who have made suggestions for other cameras, all of which I have previously looked into but still believe the canon six series is what I prefer. This is based on the other cameras I have and intend buying, the type of photography I do on holiday, and my need for a good zoom range and portability and a willingness to trade image quality. Otherwise I'd use my 7d or MFT or FZ200.

Incidentally I'd also have a canon G3X in my collection if it had a evf.

So, anyone have experience is the IS on the 710 and 700 as a comparison.

thanks again
