The Canon PowerShot SX50 HS Digital Camera is the world's
first compact digital camera with a 50x optical zoom lens. The
impressive focal length range extends all the way from a wide-angle 24mm
to a super-telephoto 1200mm (35mm equivalent). The camera has a 12.1MP
CMOS image sensor and a DIGIC 5 Image Processor, enabling you to capture
high-resolution JPEG and RAW still images, as well as full HD 1080p
video with stereo sound. The 2.8" Vari-Angle LCD monitor features a
resolution of 461,000 pixels and an electronic viewfinder.
Sensitivity
up to ISO 6400 helps the camera produce clear, detailed images even in
low-light situations. Optical image stabilization compensates for camera
shake in these conditions for crisp, blur-free image quality. High
Speed AF provides fast 0.19-sec focusing, improving upon the SX40 HS's
0.38 sec, and a reduction in shooting lag time from 0.45 sec (on the
SX40 HS) to 0.25 sec to ensure that you don't miss a shot. Zoom Framing
Assist Seek and Lock functions make it easy to track your subjects and
keep them centered in the frame until you capture the image.
High-Speed
Burst HQ enables continuous capture at 13fps for up to 10 frames. Smart
AUTO mode automatically chooses the best camera settings for the
situation, selecting from 58 predefined scenarios. Face ID adjusts focus
and exposure priority based upon up to 12 pre-registered faces. A
variety of shooting modes are at your disposal as well, including
Manual, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Program, plus Movie
Digest for combining a whole day's worth of clips into a video, Stitch
Assist for panoramic shots, and many more. High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode
combines 3 different exposures into one evenly-lit image.
With
the camera's built-in hot shoe, you can use optional Canon Speedlite
flashes, such as the 270EX II, 320EX, and 600EX-RT. Using the included
USB cable and the PictBridge interface, one can enjoy the ability to
print directly from the camera to a compatible printer without using a
computer.
