Advantages: a point and shoot 20x lens, reasonably good LCD screen Disadvantages: image quality not great, pretty useless viewfinder, can be overly complicated to setup, CD manual
The Canon Powershot SX1 IS seems to offer the impossible, read the reviews and it seems image quality is great, the lens has an amazing range of 28-560mm, its image stabilised, its got high quality move mode, ... Having taken about 500 pictures with it so far I am not that impressed. Take the camera out of the box charge some batteries add an SD card and see what you have got. The lens diameter is miniscule when compared to an SLR , nothing unexpected ... ...a digital SLR like the Canon 5d and you will see what I mean. 2.

Advantages: high quality,good zoom Disadvantages: difficult for beginers
The Canon powershot SX1 IS is a gem of a product. It features the latest in technology and design and has awesome picture clarity.

So guys go ahead and grab this one along for its sheer beauty and powerful performance ...
