Why did Canon leave out it's best features

Strengths: Wide angle, good movie mode

Weakness: Noise, fringing, lack of AA batteries, lack of tilt/swivel LCD, can't zoom while in movie mode

The problem with all compact cameres is noise. Did Canon enlarge the sensor to reduce noise? NO. The benefit of generic AA batteries is that you can easily / cheaply buy more when your's run low. Did Canon continue this feature? NO. Canon makes an xlnt tilt/swivel LCD, lets you take pictures around corners, from over the heads of a crowd in front of you & from under things blocking eye level...

Canon PowerShot SX200 IS (blue)

THE GOOD: Compact body with wide-angle lens with 12x zoom; manual controls; very good photo and video quality for its class. THE BAD: Mixed performance; no optical zoom in Movie mode. THE BOTTOM LINE: More than just a point-and-shoot pocket megazoom, the Canon SX200 IS improves upon its forerunner, but not by much.

Canon PowerShot SX200 IS Review

Canon's most refined entry into the pocket long-zoom digital camera category, the PowerShot SX200, features a gorgeous 12x zoom ranging from 28-336mm, but slips into a jacket pocket with ease. A big 3-inch LCD leaves no room for an optical viewfinder on the Canon SX200 but at this zoom range it would be woefully inaccurate anyway. Just packed with popular Canon features, the Canon SX200 also...

Camera Labs – Canon PowerShot SX200 IS review

The PowerShot SX200 IS is Canon’s first attempt at a pocket super-zoom, and it’s certainly impressive, packing a 12x zoom, 3in screen, HD movies, an HDMI port and full manual control into a pocketable form factor. Viewed in isolation it’s a highly compelling prospect. <p>But the big issue facing the SX200 IS is its arch rival, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 / ZS3, which lest we forget, has...

DCRP Review: Canon PowerShot SX200 IS

The Canon PowerShot SX200 IS is a very capable and compact ultra zoom camera. It offers very good photo quality, a 28 - 336 mm lens, a nice combination of automatic and manual controls, a large LCD, and a HD movie mode. It's not perfect though; it has a weak, slow-to-charge flash, battery life is below average, and you can't zoom while recording a movie mode. Despite that, the PowerShot SX200 is...
