Compact and powerful, the new Canon PowerShot SX280 is a camera that is really ideal for travel junkies. This camera was designed to be a replacement for its predecessor, which is the SX260 HS. The Canon PowerShot SX280 may be small but it is flexible and it comes with so many amazing features which make it easy for people to practice photography.
On top of that, camera users get the chance to capture incredible photos with great details. Just like other cameras from Canon, this also comes with so many modes for preset photography and auto focus. That is why it remains to be an ideal camera even for amateurs.
This Canon camera gives you its 20x zoom, especially with its 25-500mm zoom lens. It comes with an anti-shaking system, as well, which is built directly into its body so the photos that you take are clear at all times though you have hands which are slightly unsteady. Canon Powershot SX280 also has its settings for Dynamic IS mode, giving users a more detailed and powerful video recording.
It also has a 5-axis stabilizer providing anti-shaking capabilities to the entirety of the camera. It also has a 3-inch LCD screen which has a 460k-dot resolution. This camera also comes with a sensor of 12 MP CMOS on its back which is illuminated. Canon was already able to use one of the best engines that it has for image processing – the DIGIC 6 set at 60 fps, plus a movie mode of full HD which appears really outstanding. For an extreme viewing experience, Canon Powershot SX280 shares its 1080p resolution to you.
This device also gives you the capability to do sound recording. It also has its HDMI input slot that you can use to see movies on screens that are bigger. It only weighs 233 grams – making it a very lightweight camera even if you have its memory card inserted.
Perhaps, Canon is most popular for the convenience that it gives to its users. At a first glance, Canon Powershot SX280 will not look different when compared to the previous model. Though it has a similar design as the SX260 HS, its features and functionality are really different. This model is sturdier in a person’s hand and it is also sleeker if you will compare it to the SX260 HS which is boxy. It also has a sturdy body, so occasional knocking wouldn’t really damage it.
