Canon PowerShot SX260 HS

Very interesting review just posted here. I have recently purchased the Canon PowerShot SX240 HS I love it!

As far as i can tell it's spec is identical to the Canon PowerShot SX260 HS apart from not have the GPS feature.

My main camera is a 1D mkIII and an excellent camera but very heavy. Also gots a lot of attention from security when shootings around London the Canon PowerShot SX240 HS has no problem and has a longer reach than any of my other lenses. In all win win : )

Congrats on your purchase!!

I am also looking to test this camera and any feedback as to its performance would be appreciated! Especially would like to know its Autofocus speed and low light performance.

I had a chance to check the Sony HX30V and was very impressed with its low light AF.
Cheers.

This review you speak of, where is it?

I was hoping for some kind of mini-review from you, an owner, compared to your monster DSLR. What do you like (be detailed please) besides it being so much smaller?
