  • Decent image quality, Fast, reliable performance, 42x optical zoom, Manual control, Plenty of effects modes, Relatively compact
  • No panorama or HDR modes, No EVF, GPS or WiFi, Average screen quality, Mediocre battery life
  • There's a lot to like about the SX520 HS. It's relatively compact and light for a bridge camera and is a doddle to use. That said, if you fancy getting creative, the extensive manual options and DSLR-like control wheel are welcome features. Whatever mode...

  • Abstract:  Canon has introduced the Canon PowerShot SX520 HS, a new model for users looking mostly a versatile camera. This camera is compact, but its small size combined with a zoom lens 42 increases, says that soon. It also features a 16 megapixel BSI sensor; imag...

  • Cramming a big 42x optical zoom into a compact body with a small-ish sensor is never going to make for the best of bedfellows if the ultimate in image quality is your aim, but we'd argue the 16 megapixel Canon PowerShot SX520 HS is more about convenience...

  • Abstract:  There are a few other changes of particular note. The Canon SX520 HS now has a faster shutter speed of 1/2,000 second, where the earlier model was limited to 1/1,600 second, and its flash is a little more powerful, too. Unfortunately, battery life has plu...

  • Long zoom, Manual control, Zoom Framing Assist
  • No WiFi, No touchscreen, No raw format shooting
  • It's good to see Canon updating the 510HS as it's been a while, however, arguably the company has played it pretty safe here. A 42x optical zoom is a very good range, but it's not market leading. There's also nothing particularly exciting, such as Wi-Fi ...

  • Wide focal length range, Good noise reduction and focusing speed
  • Misses a few features from the previous version, Unimpressive Auto mode
  • There are a range of bridge cameras in the market today and the Canon PowerShot SX520 HS feels like just another addition. However the performance of the camera is quite impressive, especially the 42x zoom capability. This is a great camera for hobbyists...
