Canon PowerShot SX210 IS Review

Canon has upgraded the SX200 from last year with their latest compact super-zoom, the SX210 IS. This new unit offers 14-megapixels of resolution mated to a powerful 14x optical zoom lens that features a wide 28mm field of view and their true optical image stabilization. Other specs include a large 3.0-inch LCD screen, hidden pop-up flash unit, Eye-Fi card compatibility, and 720p HD video capture. All of these impressive features are packed into a compact and stylish frame that will retail for approx. $349.99US, and is available in three colors: black, purple and gold.

Good outdoor image quality; Generous 14x optical zoom with a nice 28mm wide angle extreme; Large 3.0-inch LCD offers a nice view of your subject(s); Stylish and well built body; Good High ISO performance for a camera in this class.

Below average shooting performance; Pop-up flash not in the greatest position; easily blocked by your left index finger; Flash Pops up automatically in all modes, which is not always wanted; Non-existent labeling on the 4-way controller; Indoor image quality not up to par with other Canon PowerShot models
