| The 50x optical zoom lens on the new SX50 HS has an exceptionally
long range. It will help you zero-in on shots that would otherwise be
too distant to accurately capture, and a built-in optical image
stabilizer helps to keep images steady. This can be very useful for
shooting sporting events and stage shows, especially when you can’t get
as close to the action as you’d like. The LCD screen features a
resolution of 461,000 dots and provides approximately 100% coverage. A
dedicated button is provided for shooting movies, and you can still zoom
in and out while you’re rolling. An HDMI output is provided for
connecting the SX50 HS directly to your TV.
There are many automated features on the SX50 HS that make it easy to
take precise-looking stills and videos. Its Smart AUTO mode adjusts the
camera settings for you. It has the ability to identify faces and keep
the parameters continually optimized on the people in the frame. An
Intelligent IS feature automatically chooses the best possible modes for
image stabilization. A built-in flash is provided, and you can attach a
more powerful Speedlite flash to its built-in hot shoe.

PowerShot S110
Canon has also just announced the 12.1-megapixel PowerShot S110 digital point-and-shoot camera. The S110 is available in black or silver
and it features a 12-megapixel 1/1.7-inch CMOS sensor, DIGIC 5 Image
Processor and Canon HS System, which affords high shutter speeds and a
maximum of ISO 12800 for exceptional low-light performance. The camera
also features built-in Wi-Fi, which allows you to transfer images to
social networking sites wirelessly via Canon’s iMAGE GATEWAY. If you
have an Android or iOS device, you can also use the free Canon
CameraWindow app to share images between Wi-Fi-enabled PowerShot
cameras, and print your images with a Wi-Fi-enabled printer. Plus, you
can even record GPS data on your mobile device or smartphone and
wirelessly add a geographical narrative to the images on your camera.
The S110 features a 24mm wide-angle 5x optical zoom lens with a
bright f/2.0 aperture. It thrives in low-light conditions and works well
when you’re using a shallow depth of field for softer backgrounds. The
S110 can also capture Full HD 1920 x 1080p video with stereo sound via a
dedicated movie button, which supports MOV files. You can zoom while
you’re shooting and you can play back video on an HDTV in Full HD via
the integrated HDMI port. The camera also features a 3-inch capacitive
PureColor System touch screen LCD that makes recording easier and
playback more convenient. Plus, it supports intuitive control of the
camera functions including the Touch Shutter, which provides a more
interactive user experience.
The S110 is equipped with Canon’s High Speed AF and High Seed Burst
HQ, which facilitates up to 10 fps continuous shooting. The camera also
features a built-in flash and a convenient Intelligent IS that
automatically chooses from six different modes of image stabilization
depending on your shooting conditions. It also features 12-bit
multi-aspect RAW+JPEG shooting and bundled software for satisfying your
creativity. Canon has outfitted the S110 with a control ring as well,
which facilitates adjustment of: focus, aperture, shutter speed, ISO
step zoom, exposure compensation, aspect ratio, i-Contrast and white
balance.
