Canon PowerShot SX110 IS

Components
Speed/Timing
As much as we'd love all cameras to be so blisteringly fast that you would never miss a shot while waiting for a camera to start up, this isn't the case. So, to test just how quickly you can expect the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS to respond, we've run it through a number of speed tests, always using a high-speed memory card to minimize data transfer bottlenecks.
Startup to First Shot (7.20)
The camera took on average 2.8 seconds to start up, a relatively sluggish period, but not the worst we've encountered. Ultra-zoom cameras have a tendency to wake up slowly.
Shot-to-Shot (9.23)
At full resolution, the PowerShot took 1.3 frames per second, a respectable enough result. This isn't as fast as the speed-demon Casio EX-FH20, which blazes away at 40 frames per second, but it's competitive with most ultra-zooms on the market.
Shutter-Shot (2.32)
This test measures how quickly the camera can autofocus and then take the picture. The Canon was unfortunately slow on this test, taking approximately 0.8 seconds to perform the allotted task.
Processing (7.03)
