- If you're using it mainly in good light, or as a holiday camera, you're going to be extremely pleased with this camera. It's nice to see Canon thinking about advanced amateurs with this bridge camera offering, for instance by keeping raw format shooting a...

- Good optical image stabilisation, vari-angle LCD, image quality at middle zoom is good for its category
- Problems with focus and general handling at the full zoom extension, competition from higher-end superzooms
- There's a lot to admire about the Canon PowerShot SX60 HS. It takes what has always been successful about this companies superzooms and pushes it up a notch. But pushes it a notch too far in our opinion. The 65x optical zoom is all about big number...

- 65x optical zoom, Quality images, decent videos, Solid LCD and EVF
- Relatively poor ISO performer, Some focusing issues at extreme telephoto
- The SX60 is a quality mega-zoom for general use, but it stumbles when it comes to action shots or in low-light situations, especially at full telephoto. Despite the lows, it is still a highly recommend camera for those who want a one-in-all that's perfec...

- Canon PowerShot SX60 HS – Performance The Canon SX60 HS also features an improved image processor, a variant of the DIGIC 6 unit. Speed is reasonable, but not that much more. It takes around two seconds to start from cold to take your first shot, and whil...

- Market, leading 65x zoom range, Full manual control and raw files, Wi, Fi and NFC built in
- As big as an entry, level D, SLR, No eye sensor on the viewfinder, Lacks touch, screen control
- Another great performer by Canon which is kept from perfection by a few small, but significant, niggles. If you're mainly interested in a camera that you're going to use in good light but you still want to maintain control over every aspect of shooting, ...

- No built in automatic panoramic mode, My colour / dynamic range options not available when shooting raw, Price
- The Canon Powershot SX60 HS lays claim to one of the largest optical zoom lenses in any ultra zoom bridge camera. With a 65x optical zoom lens, the camera offers an almost ridiculous level of optical zoom starting at an ultra-wide 21mm zooming to 1365mm e...

- If you dont have overly high expectations of it, the SX60 HS isnt too bad at all. In good light, the image quality is decent enough, although naturally it wont match an SLR. The camera handles pretty well, with the EVF aiding shooting in bright light...

- The battle of the bridge cameras used to be a two-horse race between the Canon SX50 HS's huge zoom and the Panasonic FZ200's constant f/2.8 aperture. However, with the Canon's focus deteriorating at the long end of its zoom, the Panasonic took a clear lea...
