  • Canon PowerShot SX260 HS Review
    Canon's compact PowerShot SX lineup has ruled the roost for the past half of a decade, and the Canon PowerShot SX260 HS ($349.99) picks up where the SX230 left off. In the last episode, the Canon PowerShot SX230 HS had boosted its optical zoom capabilities, added a few fun digital filters, matured to 1080p HD recording and tacked on GPS with logging and Google Maps.

    I just bought this camera, and for a "point and shoot" it is probably the best of the Best in the genre. If you are looking for it to be as good as a Canon T2i, T3i, etc., it won't compete. But if you want a compact camera that takes 1080p video, and high quality photos, you will not get any better. I have tried Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, and Fuji, all at higher megapixels, and the sx260 beats them all.

  • @Zigadiboom

    Both cameras are highly competent and well regarded units. U cannot go wrong with either. Both are 12MP, similarly priced and are highly customisable. Essentially the key difference between the two is this: The S100 has a slightly larger sensor and a much brighter lens enabling better overall image quality particularly in low light without flash. However it has only 5X optical zoom. The SX260HS key selling point is its 20X optical zoom that is contained within a genuinely pocketable package.

  • @KeroroGunsouTX
    @KeroroGunsouTX 11 років тому

    I think I can answer that it part. Basically, features like auto-focus/image stabilization just don't work well when you zoom all the way, so you'll just have to cut back on your use of zoom to get a sharp picture. If you only want a certain segment of the picture, you can use an imaging editing program to crop the image to just the part you want.

  • @thermalf
    @thermalf 12 років тому

    Just bought black Canon powershot SX260. Don't get me wrong: I like it. A lot. But for the price, unless you need a compact camera that fits in a pants pocket you may be better off with a DSLR like a used Canon Rebel etc. The battery will last longer and DSLR has other advantages over a compact. This SX260 camera is comparable in image quality to my Canon G10, a large compact. But G10 has larger battery that lasts a long time; longer than SX260 . Lastly the SX260 GPS is nice but I turned it off

    I should've listened to you and get the Canon Powershot SX260HS, I got the Panasonic Lumix ZS-19 which is similar to this albeit a slightly higher end model, has on par performance but the problem is poor low light performance. Basically, all my photos taken in low light situations are unusable. Really miss ya Mike and thanks for the reviews! Fortunately, got a SX260HS on clearence, indeed a dramatic difference, though now I have two cameras for a hair over $400.

    Hi,
    I like your review of the SX260 HS. I'm just about ready to pull the trigger and buy the Panasonic DMC-ZS20; do you know when you will have your review completed for that camera? I figure it would be wise for me to wait for your review to see what your opinion is of the pros & cons of the Panasonic compared to the Canon SX260 HS.
