The Canon PowerShot SX110 is a 9 megapixel super-zoom camera with a 10X optical zoom lens and optical image stabilization. The camera is designed to be a less expensive alternative to Canon’s high end SX10/SX1 ultra-zoom cameras. You won’t get the 20X zoom lenses, rotating LCDs and flash hotshoes of those cameras but what you WILL get on the PowerShot SX110 are full manual controls.
Despite being a fairly affordable for a big zoom camera (being about $200), the PowerShot SX110 doesn’t compromise performance – being a fast performing camera which also happens to have class leading battery life and good image quality. The only shortcomings of the camera are its not-so-wide angle lens which starts at 36 mm (in a world where 28 mm is the new 35 mm) and very weak flash.
