Description: Our experts have some serious techsperience, and they think you'll love this Canon Power Shot SX540 HS Bridge Camera. This compact camera from Canon gives you a lot more power for your pound. It's got a massive 50x optical zoom, and 20.3 megapixel CMOS sensor for super sharp photos, even when shooting from a distance...and all without breaking the bank. CMOS sensor Improving on the Canon Power Shot SX530HS, the new SX540HS has a bigger CMOS sensor, driven by a faster DIGIC 6+ processor with iSAPS technology that means you can shoot images up to 20.3 megapixels in size quicker than before, with less time wasted between shots. The Power Shot SX540 has an impressive 50x optical zoom that covers the equivalent of 24 - 1200 mm on a 35 mm camera. Such a broad focal range, from wide-angle and standard shooting, right through to super telephoto, means that you can use the SX530HS for almost any subject, from sweeping landscapes or detailed architecture shots, to close up expressive portraits right through to sport shooting and wildlife photography, snapping from a distance. Intelligent optical image stabilisation counteracts camera shake so fewer of your shots will be affected. It automatically adapts to shooting conditions so that your photos and videos are sharper and more detailed - even if you're shooting at full zoom or handheld in dim light. Precise shooting Keeping track of distant subjects at high zoom is simple with the Canon Power Shot SX540 HS - activate Zoom Framing Assist at the touch of a button, which rapidly zooms the camera out of a scene to help you check where your subject has moved to. As soon as you release the button, you'll zoom straight back to where you were. Auto mode has been improved to automatically zoom out when a subject goes out of the frame, helping you maintain them at a preset size. Canon's HS System maintains clearer shots, even in low light - this preserves the true atmosphere of each moment so that you don't always have to use a tripod or flash. Stunning images with ease The Canon Power Shot SX540 HS is able to shoot 1920 x 1080p Full HD videos complete with stereo sound, so you can record memories in full at the touch of a button. Smart Auto mode selects the ideal camera settings for photo and video modes for best results, while Hybrid Auto creates a nifty HD (720p) movie summary of everything you've shot during the day. Stable, creative and comfortable An Intelligent Image Stabiliser lets you shoot on the move while still achieving superbly sharp results.

Review: This camera is excellent for the purposes I wanted it for, it is light, compact and has a zoom that’s amazing. The flash is very efficient and close too, can light up a good area to a high level. It takes replacement batteries that are a good price as long as the Canon make is not purchased as they are mega expensive. This has all the different modes a standard DSLR camera has and also has a video facility. The lens is a fixed unit and I do wonder what this would be like if it was capable of interchangeable lens,. That said this is a high quality lens and can cope with virtually all situations of use that I have tried it with so far so no criticism here. To sum up, I am very pleased with my purchase and so is my wife.

Review: so far so good but would have liked a nice compact manual rather than the reams and reams of paper I had to print off with such small print it's hard to read. When I finally get to grips with the instructions I hope to enjoy using it for summer to come!
