A top megazoom option, the Canon PowerShot SX1 IS offers a 20x zoom lens and HD video, which you can't get in a similarly priced dSLR, and delivers more features and slightly better performance and photo quality than the cheaper SX10 IS.

It looks like an innocent compact SLR, but the Canon SX1 IS is actually a paparazzi-pleasing ultrazoom in sheep's clothing, with a 20x zoom plus high-def 1080p video. For the same $600, though, you could buy a highly rated interchangeable-lens SLR.
The Canon SX1, at $599.99, is the most expensive ultrazoom in our test group by a substantial margin, with a $200 gap between the 10-megapixel 20x Canon and the 12.1-megapixel 24x Nikon P90. Of course, two of the ultrazooms reviewed are limited to ...

Incredible flexibility in tough shooting situations. Love the powerful zoom combined with great image stabilization, for both stills and video
Would like a manual zoom. The power zoom controls aren't sensitive enough, especially when I want to zoom slowly or just a little bit. Also, image is unexpectedly coarse at even moderately high ISOs
Lori Grunin. Where is our SX20 Review?
Sx20 Appears to bridge the gap from the Sx10 and SX1
Lori Grunin. Where is our SX20 Review
well as i see it is supplied with most needed functions including CANON quality
thinking what to add, well may be uncomfortable design as CANON rarely pays attention to design but keeps quality
