Canon PowerShot SX200 IS (black) review

By (cnet.com)

Compact body with wide-angle lens with 12x zoom; manual controls; very good photo and video quality for its class

Mixed performance; no optical zoom in Movie mode

More than just a point-and-shoot pocket megazoom, the Canon SX200 IS improves upon its forerunner, but not by much.

While very compact for a 12x optical zoom, it... 

A great optical zoom, manual controls, pop-up flash, great images, and a fairly compact size given it's large lense. It has fun and practical features

May be too bulky for some users and some may not like the pop-up flash
