Pros: Dimensions, weight, maneuverability even in manual use, objective.

Cons: Back panel where easily the fingers happen where you would not want, buttons even too sensitive places where it is easy to bump them causing involuntary activations of functions that at the time of shooting throw you into panic. Poorly manageable eyepiece viewfinder with the focus button that loses it often and willingly.

Opinion: Great. Purchased used at the end of July '23 I tried it in early August in Val di Non, (by the way: thanks again to Erica and Fabio who sold it to me), alternating it specifically for comparison with a more noble Sony RX10. I must say that the lens has not disappointed at all and behaves finely, although always assisted by a polarizer .. Excellent color rendering, precise definitions, no halo or vignetting. And this is a very important gift since the lens in a camera is almost everything and details, although not trivial, lose importance, such as having a sensitivity that perhaps reaches millions of ASA (or ISO) to be able, I know, to photograph the cathedral of Clermont-Ferrand seen on a moonless night and during a blackout. Who buys a bridge can not expect who knows that pulling the ISO to 3200 or 6400 without risking to collect video noise just because the house lists it in its scale, it is still an amateur machine (or even a nice toy). Otherwise it is better to orient yourself on the purchase of a reflex knowing however that after you have to carry kilos of "scrap". Overall I give an eight and a half, it reminds me of the wink of the old Canon Demì. Already said of his moles in the "against" section, overall for me promoted with flying colors, I did mirabilia to a Kodak that mounted a beautiful Schneider Kreutznach 28-420, let alone if a Canon did not amaze and amuse me!

Pros: Flexibility of use - today at a really inviting price - excellent choice x those who just want to have fun with photography

Cons: ... all the limits of a small sensor

Opinion: Socket used at 140€ a few months ago - for a long time I wanted to try a compact superzoom and already having both reflex and ML bodies and optics from the Fish-eye to the 400mm, I wanted to try to go further, without too much expectation - I leave out the comparison with interchangeable optical bodies, comparing myself to canon G12 and Canon Pro1 --- using it on Raw, without going beyond 160 iso and 800mm eq. it gives shots, in relatively static conditions, that amazed me - this is its field of action and in these conditions makes life hard to other well + lent solutions --- certain you can climb up to 1200 mm eq and a little also with iso but .....! - then it turns out that it has excellent close-up potential, which has good ergonomics and an average dignified optical yield - its limits + evident, in dynamic shots, where Af servo does tenderness and the lag to the shutter button makes you hysterical (but I am used to 1d) - the iso seal (over 160 better not to push) - the burst, good only in the specific jpeg function, but loses the quality of the file - viewfinder and LCD (fortunately totally articulated), at the union minimum - compared to the g12 with the excellent 28/140 eq. it does not lose much as yield, but the longer focal length allows close-ups even to subjects + distant - compared to the Pro 1 with 28/200 and fluorite lens, it loses a little in the optical yield and "old style" colors that the old Pro1 gives - in the " canonical " macro, since all 3 at the minimum focal point, allow shots at very close range, the Pro1, prevails but working only in jpeg, while g12 and sx 50 are basically ewuino, but the sx50, wanting to use pop-up flash, (maybe shielded), has the limit of an overly protruding optics and need an adapter (such as the Pro1), x use an annular flash - basically, we are talking about a multipurpose body, with good overall performance, not very bulky and perfect to take with you on excursions where you could shoot from the macro , to the panorama, to the fauna even at long distances - ( on a subject at 30/50 meters I prefer it by far to the 1d4 + 400 f 5.6 L ..... light permitting of course)

Pros: Lightness, footprint, optical zoom power, RAW and fully manual

Cons: "Limited" resolution, noise at high ISO

Opinion: They just offered me 250 euros to buy it, and I refused (to date it is 7 years old). It is a machine that asks little and for a long time. Exceptional to carry when weight and clutter are a problem, you hunt in your backpack pocket and you don't think about it anymore. The optical zoom is impressive, the stabilizer excellent. The quality is naturally limited, but you can get great shots. The battery lasts a lifetime, and with 15 euros you take the Duracells of escort on the net. Great for learning how to use the machine not automatically, and great for making full HD videos. Can I give an example of a motoring? I have a BMW R1100R and a Lyberty 125 scooter. So that's the comparison. With the bike I go to the sea, on the highway for hundreds of kilometers, to make the rounds. With the scooter I go to the city, to work, to go shopping. They are two completely different things, but each with its own why, its advantages and its disadvantages. You can't compare them, you can only appreciate them for what they are, and love each one for what it give you and asks you. What to say, I would not sell it even if they offered me 500 euros, for me it is like a friend, to which I am fond, with whom I spent beautiful moments, which gave me great satisfaction. My daughter asked me to take her on vacation. I preferred to buy her a new compact, to prevent me from breaking it or losing it :-)

Pros: Excellent image quality at low ISO; zoom maintains good sharpness even at maximum zoom range. Ability to shoot in manual and RAW.

Cons: Poor yields in Jpeg already after ISO 400. Electronic viewfinder bad

Opinion: Good bridge camera perfect for start photographing but also very useful for amateurs, by accepting all the compromises necessary, they want a super tele at hand. Absolutely incredible results that can give a macro lens when combined with the Raynox DCR-250 (you can get a significant magnification).

Pros: Great for photo documentative animals, light, usable in any situation (good stabilizers for night shots), extremely cheap for the results allows to obtain, focuses on 50X in little more than a meter away, allows you to make excellent video, sound and shock resistant (also has fallen several times on the tarmac by a meter in height), enables you to work on manual adjusting exposure time and ISO.

Cons: Limited capacity in the photograph birds in flight: insufficient viewfinder, focus difficult. Often has trouble focusing on macro subjects such as flowers (we recommend manual focus). Shades the background much less of an SLR, as well as the actual quality of the photos is not comparable (and rightly so) to pictures taken with real targets equivalent. Already considerable noise over 800 ISO.

Opinion: Truly a bomb for what it costs, money well spent. Fun in every situation on the ground, even in low light conditions (in which you may want to underexpose by 2/3-1 stop), allowing you to bring home a decent photo to documentation of the animals that are found in every situation, even when machines more cameras listed ranging in difficulty. The only real flaw is the viewfinder, otherwise you can not expect more.

Pros: zoom actually very powerful and that most performante.stabilizzatore buono.schermo ottimo.qualità image accettabile.riesce to take pictures even to heaven stellato.ottima video quality for which zooming is very good dolce.macro.

Cons: viewfinder too small and annoying to the eyes (in comparison when you look through the 7d, you seem to be at the movies.) battery does not last long because of zooming in azione.diaframma does not go beyond f8.il flash out manually.

Opinion: generally worse than I thought, I've got this bridge to carry in my kit with canon eos 6d (delete the 7d that is performing only with optical quality and long and has a sensor is not optimal (noise already in iso medium; pictures in the dark I do not soffisfano; sensor ff of 6d is another planet).'ve tried to do some macro photos and I must say that this bridge is more practical than a macro lens for light weight, minimum distance maf and prezzo.ottimo wide program with the machine to make pictures super panoramiche.in conclusion I recommend the purchase of this bridge for its completeness of software and optics in mind, especially for those who will not or can not spend the money for an SLR, surely you'll have the same, except that SLR is the most powerful in all respects to vista.ciao and good photos at all.

Pros: good image detail beautiful color rendition, faster, more noise up to 1600 ISO that acettabile great zoom.

Cons: Battery Life

Opinion: Good quantum leap with the new CMOS sensors retroilluminati.L optics is really at the height of Canon products, with good lighting will make great pictures with regard to contrast and color. Then evening comes and then you realize that it is not an SLR but that's okay. I still believe that we have come to an end now with regard to the performance of these sensors. the next step would be to adopt larger sensors on ....!, a little effort ... but they will all agree upon?

Pros: -

Cons: -

Opinion: good compromise for those who want to bring to the photograph on the cheap and having a good quality 'and especially so many special features ... rnZoom exaggerated, valid up to 50x optical, one digital and' unhelpful and rather poor. Refrain maniacs quality 'and professionals ..... rnSi is a nice toy and as such must be considered ...
