    Canon SX70 .... September

    Everyone has to decide for themselves the level of photo quality they will accept in a camera. On Amazon USA, there are as many bad reviews of this model, as there are good ones.

    Canon SX70 .... September

    I've seen enough photos and videos from the SX70 in other places, to convince me that I will not be buying this model. The image quality is a big disappointment. The photos I've seen that were just passable in quality, had been shot in RAW and processed. If Sony doesn't finally produce another...

    Canon SX70 .... September

    I bought a Canon camera a dozen years ago, before there were very many discussion forums to exchange the information, that is not provided by the manufacturers.

So it's possible that other changes to the lens may have been made. Sometimes, just a small change to...

    Canon SX70 .... September

    There seems to have been one website reviewer who took a few photos with one, but the images are poor quality and not sharply-focused. They would be of no value in determining anything about the camera. The Canon website has what they say are photos and videos from it, but there's another camera...

    Canon SX70 .... September

    At first glance, there seems to be a control ring on the SX70 lens housing. But other cameras with such rings, have grooves all the way around, not just in two small areas, as this one does. I have found no mention anywhere, of there being a lens control ring on this model. Typically, these...
