"Pseudo SLR" with impressive, even for its size, optical capabilities: a wide-angle (24mm min.) lens gives 35x magnification, is equipped with an optical image stabilizer and allows manual focus. The external display is slightly smaller than the standard one — 2.7 ", but it is made rotatable; in addition, there is an electronic viewfinder, and an accelerometer is included in the additional equipment. In addition to photos with a good set of scene programs, the camera can shoot video 1280x720. external connections.

Does a full frame make a difference? Is it worth buying a full-frame camera?Do I need to spend money on an expensive full frame or is it better to buy a cropped camera?..

Video reviews
Canon is serious about expanding its range of ultra-powerful zoom compact cameras. The PowerShot SX30 IS is a replacement for the SX20. This camera has decent specs and includes a rich set of features for a compact. This device will be an excellent choice for amateur photographers who can realize their creative ideas with it.

Lens:
The PowerShot SX30 IS is a high-performance hybrid camera equipped with a 24mm ultra-wide angle lens. lens with an incredible 35x optical zoom and the most effective optical Image Stabilizer (IS), which provides 4.5 stops of stabilization. The movable lens group fights very well with blurring of the frame when shooting where an increased shutter speed is needed, as well as at high magnification. Also, the optical elements from which the lens is folded have a high refractive index (Hi-UD), which compensates for light aberrations over the entire magnification range.

For fast, precise and quiet zooming, Canon engineers equipped their brainchild with an ultrasonic motor (USM) and a motor with a coil drive (VCM). This filling, as well as a new function for framing moving and distant objects (Zoom Framing Assist) — will allow the photographer to have a stable fix-focus of objects by automatically adjusting the zoom.

Matrix:
The camera has a 14 megapixel 1/2.3-inch CCD sensor, which allows you to take high-resolution images of 4320x3240 pixels at an ISO sensitivity of 80 to 1600. The only obvious drawback is that the designers have deprived it of the ability to shoot in RAW format. Therefore, the owners will have to rejoice only in the presence of JPEG with support for EXIF information (version — 2.2).

Display:
The SX30 features a 2.7-inch PureColor II vari-angle TFT display with 230,000 dots. The software of the device allows you to have quick access to the Quick Bright function, thanks to which the photographer will be able to view and edit photos in bright light.

Video:
The PowerShot SX30 IS allows you to shoot HD video at 720p resolution. at a speed of 30 frames per second, which is limited: by time up to 1 hour or by the amount of space on the memory card. The camera has a mini-HDMI port for synchronization with external display sources.

The presence of an E-TTL connector for a "hot shoe" for connecting an external flash, as well as a thread on the lens for polarizing filters, shows a strong bias of the digital hybrid towards semi-professionalism.

Memory cards:
Footage is saved to SDHC and SDXC memory cards that support Eye-Fi wireless connection, allowing the camera to be synchronized with external devices for data transfer.

Also PowerShot SX30 IS — offers a variety of modes for creative and automatic shooting.
