Today Canon SX20IS is equipped with Canon’s acclaimed Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) Technology that automatically detects and corrects camera when shake happened. And this is the one of the leading causes of fuzzy or blurred shots. Even when zoomed in the lens, you can get the steady, crisp, brilliant images and you’ll be proud to shoot and share with other. And Canon’s Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) Technology is convenient to use. This technology functions perfectly with or without a flash.This Canon PowerShot SX20IS lens is optimized to fully exploit its zoom length and wide shooting angle in concert with the camera’s high 12.1 Megapixel resolution. I highly recommend to buy Canon SX20IS.

DIGIC 4 Image Processor
This Canon’s proprietary DIGIC Image Processors have long set its cameras apart from the competition, and with the new DIGIC 4 sets the bar even higher. Faster, more accurate and noise reduction delivers with better image quality, even at high ISO speeds.

You can set the Canon SX20IS to Smart AUTO and you're ready for maximum enjoyment from your picture taking every time you do. It's a relaxing and satisfying way to shoot for you because you can completely concentrate, focus on your subject knowing that the camera has the technical details covered.

All in all the build quality and the easy operation make the camera a winner for me. These days clients are more interested in using images and video in a wide range of multimedia and the Canon SX20IS is a great tool for anything that's headed to the web. I still own traditional DLSR cameras and use them but left to my own devices I find the smaller sensor cameras to be highly competent and very usable.

Use the Optical Zoom while shooting super 720p HD movies with stereo sound.
If you long for the convenience of an advanced still camera that also creates super movies, the new Canon PowerShot SX20IS lets you record video in beautiful high definition resolution (1280 x 720 pixels). This camera also makes it easy to enjoy the HD movies and still photos on your HDTV device with a mini-HDMI connector for direct connection to a high-definition monitor. You willl very enjoy the HD experience with no degradation of some image or audio in the signal, plus the ability to display up to 130 thumbnails at once. Two thumbs for Canon.
