The Canon PowerShot SX620 HS features a new 25x optically stabilised lens giving a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 25-625mm and slightly faster maximum apertures at either end of the range.

I use this camera everyday as a home inspector. My only complaint is that the battery goes from 2 out of 3 bars to zero very quickly, so you need to watch the battery level if you do not charge it each night. Takes very good quality pictures for the price, and the zoom gives my the close up I need.

Very powerful zoom and you don't have to sacrifice quality. Would recommend it to anyone looking to step up from their smartphone & simple operation. Uploading your photos to your phone via the Canon Connect app is easy and handy when you don't have time to upload photos to your computer.

Totally in love with this camera. I bought it for work as I need close ups with definition and I could not be happy. Photo quality is unreal and does everything I need. The added bonus of being able to use the Wi-Fi feature to move photos between my smartphone, computer and camera is fantastic.

I wanted to like this camera, having researched it to death including on-line videos by a couple of camera enthusiasts. It is extremely well made and for its size amazingly functional. I wanted it for travel convenience, rather than having to strap on my years-old Fuji X100.

Ok, we have phones and iPads etc, but this is a camera and it does have more functions. How well it will perform for the money really depends on how much you want to explore and use those functions. I bought a hard case to protect this, a large storage disk or two and then off we go.

HUGELY DISAPPOINTED with this camera. The pictures are not as sharp as they should be, and the photo quality is poor as well. Regretting purchasing it. Has watched and read various reviews before buying it, but now I think Canon's quality has greatly reduced, or I received a defective piece.

It has a decent number of options and effects. You can actually get a shot of the moon with this thing! Good focus and stabilization when zoomed in.

I bought for my 12 year old son who really enjoys filming and the results from the camera are stunning! It has been one of the best purchases I have made as, my son no longer sits on his computer all day!!

My camera arrived in time , it was in perfect condition , i have taken a few shots with my new camera , and everything is working perfectly , and hopefully when i start a photography course in about five weeks time , i will be able to tell you more , about how i have coped with the technology this...
