Canon PowerShot SX110 IS (black) review

First-rate photo quality; full set of manual exposure controls

No optical zoom in movie capture; slippery body; spotty performance

Though it's certainly a good, inexpensive megazoom camera, some aspects of the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS fall a bit short of its predecessor.

Though slightly smaller than the SX100 IS, the SX110 IS remains large enough that it should be easy to hold securely, but its grip is shallow and the body is slippery. Since the release of the SX100 IS, many megazoom cameras have expanded to a...

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS

By Joe Eitel

Is zoom the most important feature of a camera for you? Then you may want to pay close attention to the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS. We take a look at this camera that, according to some critics, may have sacrificed a little too much to be able to get so ...

Overall, I think the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS is quite impressive, despite is low price tag. And, if you are the average consumer, you may not be troubled by the SX110's minor performance issues, especially since the pictures come out so clear.

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS

By Brad Soo

Ever fancied a super zoom camera but found them a hassle to carry them around? Well, you might like the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS which is well… not as big… as your typical ultra-zoom camera. It won't fit into your pocket but you can carry it in a bag ...

10X zoom with optical image stabilization; lens is fairly fast ; Large 3 inch LCD; visible both indoors and outdoors ; Class leading battery life ; Full manual controls; exposure, focus and flash ; Fast picture-taking performance ; Generally good ...

Lens is not “wide-angle” (36 mm isn't as wide as competition) ; Flash has a very weak range ; Large-ish size compared to less bulky cameras with same/more zoom ; Lacks the noticeable grip of its predecessor; plastic tripod mount

The Canon PowerShot SX110 is a 9 megapixel super-zoom camera with a 10X optical zoom lens and optical image stabilization. The camera is designed to be a less expensive alternative to Canon's high end SX10/SX1 ultra-zoom cameras. You won't get the 20X ...

PowerShot SX110 IS

By Tim Barribeau

The PowerShot SX110 IS from Canon is a new point-and-shoot with an impressive 10x zoom in a reasonably portable package. It shoots at 9-megapixel resolution, and offers optical image stabilization to make handheld telephoto shots practical. It didn't ...

Solid but light construction with well proportioned buttons ; Excellent control scheme ; Good color and video scores ; 10x zoom

Mediocre test scores, very bad noise results ; Slow speed ; Lacking in some settings

It's big, clunky, and didn't score particularly well in our testing, but the Canon PowerShot SX110 IS has it's own particular brand of charm. The settings are a cinch to navigate due to the excellent control scheme and well designed menu system. The ...

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS

By Tim Barribeau

The Canon SX110 IS walks the line between compact and ultra-zoom. It doesn't quite have the same zoom level as most ultra-zooms (only 10x) but has a body size closer to a compact, and offers a high level of manual control. It shoots at nine megapixels ...

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS review

By Mike Perlman

Canon's affordable 10x optical zoom camera packs in a big LCD screen and oodles of features. Will its image quality match its well-stocked toolbelt? Read our Canon PowerShot SX110 IS review to find out.

Great interface. Solid image quality in bright light. Packed with shooting features.

Poor low light performance. Larger than most compacts.

Bulkier than Canon's PowerShot SD990 IS, yet smaller than the Canon PowerShot SX10 IS, the PowerShot SX110 IS is too voluminous to stuff into a pocket, but not large enough to justify the purchase of an over-the-shoulder camera bag. The Canon...

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS

By Tim Barribeau

The Canon PowerShot SX110 IS straddles the line between a compact point-and-shoot and an ultra-zoom, with not quite the full magnification of the latter, nor the diminutive size of the former, but a bit of both. It packs a 10x zoom, shoots at nine ...

The most striking feature when you look at the camera is its Rubenesque figure. It's round, a bit bulky and made of light plastic. Controls are primarily handled by an iPod-like control wheel, which makes moving through menus and browsing stored ...

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS Review

By Gavin Stoker

The Canon PowerShot SX110 IS is a new 9 megapixel digital camera featuring a 10x zoom lens with optical image stabilizer. Successor to the SX100 model, the Canon SX110 IS is the second camera in the SX ultra-zoom series, with the ...

OK, so it purposefully lacks the bells and whistles of a fully-grown bridge model (or super zoom), but for those more used to 'auto everything' models it will nevertheless provide a step up, both in terms of image quality and, should they wish, ...
