Conclusion
|
While the new sensor used in Canon's PowerShot G1 X is excellent, the rest of the camera left us wanting more. While it's a perfectly respectable expert compact, we were hoping for a more impressive, higher-end affair, with a proper, top-notch optical viewfinder, a faster zoom lens at telephoto settings and a more advanced video mode. |
The Canon PowerShot SX280 HS is a successful update of the SX260 HS, bringing Wi-Fi connectivity and the DIGIC 6 image processor for boosted responsiveness and improved picture quality. All in all, this is a very good superzoom compact. Still, competitors are already moving ahead, sometimes with better technology and a wider range of options. |

Cons
|
- P mode isn't fully adjustable - OVF could be more accurate and more comfortable - Screen poorly calibrated (inaccurate colours etc.) - Too slow to start up - 1080 video at 24 fps only - Disappointing macro mode |
- Some may not like the electronic pop-up flash mechanism - Battery life is a little tight (210 photos with GPS off) - Screen is a little outdated compared with some competitors (resolution could be higher, no touch-controls) - Limited Wi-Fi functionality |
