Pros: Focal length, many functions, connectivity, adjustable and quality display, "*versatility"

Cons: Pasteness details, chromatic aberration, light management.

Opinion: A camera that initially seemed to be the TOP in bridge, after reading several not too positive reviews here on Juza I decided to buy it. Found at the modest price of € 400 used... What can I say, if I resold it after not even a year from its purchase there will be a reason. I was particularly attracted by its large length / focal extension optical zoom 65X and digital pushed up to 260X, but unfortunately compared to my "old" Canon sx410is that has accompanied me for years since birth in my passion for photography; this SX70 I consider a bit "artificialized" I explain better ... All these medium-low range bridges from Canon have always mounted a small sensor 1 / 2.3 "but daltronde on a bridge you can certainly not expect sensors type APS-C! I come to the point, first the PRO: machine full of features and shooting modes suitable for creatives, including filters, mods. panorama, artificial fisheye and the classic ring modes of all cameras; The large focal length is also good... Too bad, however, that it loses sharpness as soon as you push the limits, Canon to overcome the problem of the small sensor has decided to process TOO MUCH but really TOO MUCH files with this sx70! Images without background noise, relatively then (compared to the sx410) but too "pasty" in detail and this makes the images ugly and devoid of sharpness, even to make close-ups on distant subjects on sunny days: pastiness and chromatic aberration and little sharpness! Last thing, but given the large focal length, are the size ... This bridge is almost as big as a small SLR (250D e.g.) but does not have a pro camera yield, or at least high-level. VALUE FOR MONEY (for € 400) = 7/10 FINAL VOTE = 6/10 I CONCLUDE BY SAYING ... TOO BAD! If it had had better files and less mellowness and therefore more sharpness always at high focal lengths and in "unfavorable" light conditions it would have been (at least for me) DEFINITELY A BEST BUY! So I prefer to focus on SLRs, selling all the rest of the kit except my beloved sx410 (always a memory) (-;

Pros: Optimum magnification for birdlife. good stabilization and speed. Ergonomic and easy to use. Battery life. RAW CR3 Great, but with a PC that must have excellent performance.

Cons: Transfer images exclusively without cables. For use only with bright days. ISO holding embarrassing. Images mixed in detail. Too expensive for the performance it offers. Slow processing of RAW files.

Opinion: Suitable for documentary naturalistic photos in optimal lighting conditions. Egregious performance for unpretentious photos. For the high cost is preferable to a new entry reflex with teleconvertisable targets and with crop in post production. It can be a solution for demanding excursions, because the weight and the overall dimensions are minimal. I believe that the increase in the pixel that Canon has adopted for this bridge has been disastrous, all at the expense of sharpness.
