SX50 vs. SX60: Just got SX50 HS ;-)

As most here may know, the SX50 gets high praise for it's I.Q.

It's O.I.S. (IS) was very effective, too.

1/80th at 1200mm

Hi Anayv,

As you have shown many times here in and the Panasonic Compact Talk over the years, taking/ posting these type of images just about any camera can provide great results for their image size.

I got tired of messing around with the FZ80 which I got in hopes to use in lieu of the FZ200 with having the R&R of the 1.7 TC combo to have 25-1,020mm EFL.

The overall FZ80 IQ reminds me of the reviews on the FZ100. I gave the FZ80 to one of my grandsons to play around with.

After re-reading the Imaging Resource:
"Best Superzoom 2014: Eight competitors, 2.5 clear winners" ,
and looking at many other sample images of the superzoom bridge cameras, when I saw a SX50 HS in "Excellent" condition with a 180-warranty at KEH.com I bought it.

SX50 HS delivered Friday (09/20) but have not been able to use yet; camera is in 'like new' condition.

Been very please with the overall IQ of all the 12MP (1/2.3" sensor & 1/1.7" sensor) Canon compacts I've used—still have my S110 and G15.

Cheers,
Jon
