Zoom 20x, buona qualità d'immagine, GPS e WiFi integrati, AF veloce e preciso

The SX280 HS principally adds built-in wi-fi connectivity, the latest DIGIC 6 image processing engine, 60fps movies, quicker GPS and better image quality at the same price-point as last year's SX260 HS model. The wireless feature feels a little half-bake...
20x optical zoom, Wi, Fi and GPS, Full manual control
No raw shooting, Can't set AF point, No touchscreen

When it comes to compact superzooms, Canon puts together a pretty impressive list of specs with the Powershot SX280. Cameras like this show the performance and features of advanced point-and-shoots continue to evolve and there's still a place for them a...
Good build quality, nice design, Full HD video at 60 fps (progressive scan) with good picture quality and management of light, Good picture quality in photo mode (quality progresses consistently, images are subtle rather than harsh), Good general responsi
Some may not like the electronic popup flash mechanism, Battery life is a little tight (210 photos with GPS off), Screen is a little outdated compared with some competitors (resolution could be higher, no touchcontrols), Limited WiFi functionality
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...
