The imaging expert Canon has finally placed its PowerShot SX520 HS point and shoot camera in the Indian market. The demanding price of the camera is kept Rs. 17,995 (Approx. 18k). The price is a fair deal concerning the offering features with the snapper. The super zoom capability of the 42X can be achieved from this camera which helps in creating superb pictures while using the sensitivity and exposure wisely.
The fascinating aspects of the device include 16 megapixel CMOS sensor with 24-1008mm in 35mm equivalent terms. The 42X zoom is among class leading zoom functions. Canon’s ZoomPlus technology powers the camera to extend the zooming range upto 84X.
It doesn’t end here as the 42X and 84X of combined zoom can also be attained as 168X zoom. The 16 million pixel-1/2.3 inch CCD sensor sounds quite out of fashion for having no CMOS sensor. This sensor is teamed with Canon’s Proprietary Digic 4+ image processor. The capability of the snapper is extended over its predecessor to record full HD videos with 1080p resolution. The sensitivity is provided to be 3200 for better low light photography and it is function-able to reach ISO 6400.
The CMOS commands for the betterment of pictures in motion, but this device is crafted with CCD sensor that is as old as the last age. Noting this, the moving objects can now be captured correctly with the Advanced Zoom Framing on this camera, but from a distance. It is claimed to be better than the earlier system of zooming available from canon. The 3 inch LCD screen is composed of 4,61,000 dots resolution. The focal length of the same is kept to be f/3.4 which when blessed with telephoto extends upto f/6.0. The 46 filters for various jobs have been embedded with creative shot function.
The camera will not be available in the retail market, but can be found on Amazon e-commerce website only. So don’t try to find any negotiating deal anywhere, but get it grabbed on the cleverly opted price.
