Canon PowerShot SX10
Digital Camera Review
Sep 23, 2008
- By Alfredo Padilla
The Canon PowerShot SX10 IS is a sophisticated 10-megapixel point-and-shoot with a huge optical zoom range (out to 20x) that would be an arm-breaking burden on a digital SLR or 35mm camera, but in this size is a portable pleasure for grabbing far away close-ups. Combine that telephoto power with extensive manual control options and you have a camera that should appeal to outdoor photographers, paparazzi wannabes and even current SLR owners looking for long-range shooting possibilities without the size and weight of an SLR properly outfitted for the task. The SX10 is scheduled to ship in October for $499.99. Here's our first impression of the camera based on hands-on experience at the Photokina show in Cologne, Germany.
