Canon Powershot SX1

For camera lovers, Canon PowerShot SX1 IS is easily recognizable because of its close resemblance to the SX10. Like the SX10, the SX1 IS boasts the same 28-560mm lens and looks similar to the earlier version, in many ways. But, as far as performance is concerned, the PowerShot SX1 IS is certainly worthy of consideration.

The Powershot SX10IS offers an amazing 20x optical zoom. This allows people to capture various intriguing shots of the same subject. The lens of the SX10IS is designed to exploit the high zoom strength of the camera. With an ultra high refraction lens, as well as UD glass, the pictures captured by SX10 IS are guaranteed to be as accurate as they are vivid.

Behind the scenes, gently revealing the details to the photographer’s eye is the 2.5 inch LCD screen. The resolution of the screen is clear, allowing the people to interpret the viewed screen correctly, during the shots. The screen adjusts the amount of light available, and with the camera’s night display mode, makes it possible for great pictures to be taken even in areas with little or low light.

There are 24 different scene selection modes available, as well as a number of correction features. The red eye correction, for example, allows the identification and correction of red eyes during shots. This can also be done during playback.

These and many other features make the Canon PowerShot SX1 IS a welcome addition to the home of any photographer. As a maker of cameras, Canon rarely gets it wrong. But with the PowerShot SX1 IS, it has broken the laws of averages, and hit the bulls-eye.
