Canon Powershot SX70 HS Summary |

Our Verdict |
Bridge Cameras were designed to ‘bridge’ the market between compact point and shoots and fully interchangeable lens systems. The Canon Powershot SX70 HS does this perfectly – with a clear, easy to use interface and menu system, but with advanced features such as capturing RAW images. Canon’s autofocus is capable of tracking even during burst mode – when the camera can capture an impressive 5.7 frames per second. Combine this with a lens that offers everything from truly impressive macro capability for close up, detailed shots, wide-angle for landscapes and a telephoto zoom – it means you can be sure to capture the action wherever you go. |
