Canon PowerShot SX520 HS prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot SX520 HS was produced on Jul 29, 2014 and is available in USA for 289.00
The Canon PowerShot SX520 HS belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The PowerShot SX520 HS has different automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The camera can make images at 16 megapixels max resolution. But for better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The PowerShot SX520 HS has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot SX520 HS will take images with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the PowerShot SX520 HS has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to make images of the professional quality pay attention to Nikon D810.
The PowerShot SX520 HS has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which is rather good for making action images of a satisfactory quality. The PowerShot SX520 HS records great videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the camera and the photographer won't be able to change it. The lens has awesome 42x optical zoom.
The Canon PowerShot SX520 HS battery life will be enough to capture about 210 images.
