Canon PowerShot SX230 HS (blue)

THE GOOD: The Canon PowerShot SX230 HS has good low-light photo quality for its class; excellent color; shooting options that encourage experimentation; and great-looking video quality. THE BAD: Its shooting performance, though good, lags behind the competition as does its GPS functionality. The battery life is short and the overall design could use some help, too. THE BOTTOM LINE: If you want a...

Canon PowerShot SX230 HS review at Camera Labs

The PowerShot SX230 HS is Canon's flagship pocket super-zoom camera. It sports a 14x optical zoom, Full HD 1080p movie recording, a widescreen display, and built-in GPS receiver to tag your photos with your exact position. Perhaps most interestingly of all though is the resolution which Canon has kept at a sensible 12 Megapixels when its rivals are pushing 14 and 16 Megapixels. Does this give the...

Canon Powershot SX230 HS GPS Review

If you are looking for the most compact pocket zooms with GPS, then the SX230 HS is a good choice, and the use of a 12 megapixel CMOS sensor means noise is very low.

DCRP Review: Canon PowerShot SX230 HS

While not the fastest cameras in its class, the PowerShot SX230 HS offers the best photo quality, plus solid build quality, full manual controls, and a 1080p24 movie mode. Downsides include highlight clipping, corner blurring, redeye, and below average battery life.

Canon PowerShot SX230 HS Review

Canon takes a quality pocket long zoom and adds both a GPS radio and Full HD video for a more complete package. The resulting Canon PowerShot SX230 delivers good image quality and pretty nice video quality as well, while maintaining that impressive 14x, 28-392mm zoom lens. We found some minor trouble with chromatic aberration, unsurprising at this focal length, but otherwise enjoyed the Canon...
