A bit harsh but mostly true.  Superzoom compacts are point and shoot, hope for the best, snapshooters.  They are built to a price point and for what they are they do an amazing job, if in the right hands.  Copy variance is an IQ factor.  We can't really expect perfection in a mass produced item.  Again, they still fill a need for an all-in-one camera and a step up from cell phones.

I find that if a subject is important take 2 or even 3 shots and pick the best in post.  These are not high end, expensive cameras but they do very well for intended purpose.
