Canon PowerShot SX270 HS prices and specs
The PowerShot SX270 HS was released on Mar 21, 2013 and is on sale in USA for 199.99.
The PowerShot SX270 HS belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The Canon PowerShot SX270 HS has various automatic modes but you won't shoot photos of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The Canon PowerShot SX270 HS can take pictures at 12 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot SX270 HS will make pictures with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it has smaller dimensions and weight. But if you want to take pictures of the professional quality check Nikon D810.
The Canon PowerShot SX270 HS has max shutter speed of 1/3200 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for making action pictures of a satisfactory quality. The Canon PowerShot SX270 HS records great videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is fixed and the camera owner won't be able to switch it. The lens provides amazing 20x optical zoom.
The PowerShot SX270 HS battery life will be enough to capture up to 210 pictures.
