Canon PowerShot SX230 HS prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS was produced on Feb 7, 2011 and is available in USA for 308.88.
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS can shoot images at 12 megapixels max resolution. But for better picture 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 camera will make images with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it is more portable. And if you want to take images of the best quality pay attention to Nikon D810A.
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS has max shutter speed of 1/3200 sec. It is an average shutter speed that is rather good for shooting action images of a satisfactory quality. The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS produces great videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the Canon PowerShot SX230 HS and the camera owner won't be able to change it. The lens has great 14x optical zoom.
The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS even has built-in GPS that will allow the photographer to record the exact co-ordinates at which the images were made. The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS battery life will be enough to capture up to 210 images.
