Canon Powershot SX1 IS Not as good as I expected

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. Viewfinder is virtually useless for anything other than landscapes. It is dark and impossible to see detail, you have a 560mm telephoto lens and its impossible to see let alone focus upon a bird in a tree even at 50-100 feet. So using the LCD screen is a must, and that is a pain if you are used to a camera with a decent viewfinder and it will drain the batteries. 3. My suspicion is ...

I have been a Canon camera user in my college days. With Canon camera, you can be sure that every shot really counts. Its resolution is crystal clear and the photo captures vivid description of the subject. For all these years, Canon have had always gone with the latest high-tech fad in photography. Its Canon PowerShot SX1 IS speaks of Canon's eccentric character as a digital camera in the cutting edge of high quality performance. Its auto focus ...
...manufacturers envy. Since time immemorial, Canon has preserved excellence, quality and efficiency in photography, either still or digital, next to none. The Canon PowerShot SX1 IS speaks of Canon's highly discriminating taste in photography whether for casual or travel photography. Canon, however, is hard to acquire.

Canon Powershot

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. Although it can be a bit daunting to use for a newcomer, this thing works like magic once you get used to it. I found it very good to shoot moving images and it hardly gave me any blur effect. The camera features a 10 megapixel with 20X optical zoom and shoots at 4 frames per second which is very good. I had a beautiful ...
...a product and that one picture alone negates any of the discomfort that you might find initially from using this product. This one's a stealer at 512 pounds so I suggest you get your hands on this one as fast as possible or gift it to your beloved and you'll see the extra love and affection that you'll get :) So guys go ahead and grab this one along for its sheer beauty and powerful performance ...

Quick review of Canon PowerShot SX1 IS

This camera is not released yet so the 'review' already here is a piece of fluffy nonsense I'm afraid. Wait for a review from someone who has actually got the camera - which won't be until December. ...
