Canon PowerShot SX260 HS First Impressions Review


If it isn't broken, don't fix it. The Canon PowerShot SX260 HS is a familiar follow-up to last year's excellent SX230 HS, though the designers crammed even more zoom crammed into an even slimmer body. With a 20x reach, a 12.1-megapixel backlit CMOS sensor, a new image processor, and a reasonable asking price of $349, the SX260 HS could once again be one of the year's most popular travel zooms, competing with models from "Panasonic":http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Panasonic-Lumix-ZS20-First-Impressions-Review.htm, "Nikon":http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Nikon-S9300-First-Impressions-Review.htm, and "Samsung":http://www.digitalcamerainfo.com/content/Samsung-WB850F-First-Impressions-Review.htm. We spent a few minutes with the SX260 HS at the CP+ 2012 photo show in Japan. Read on for our first impressions.
