Great camera, stunning shots.

Good pictures, good zoom for birdwatching - not quite as good reach as the SX50, but that was out of stock. auto-focus coped even with hand held at full zoom.

Positives: Bright LCD, Great Picture Quality, Easy To Use

Brilliant

This is an excellent mid range camera, have tried several and this is the best so far. Little bit bigger than I expected, but has a powerful zoom and the picture quality is superb, which is really all that you want in a camera I suppose. I would recommend this as I am an amateur haven't a clue what I am doing most of the time, but this camera can help you do it or leave you to your own devices and you can do it yourself, whichever way it comes up trumps for me.
