Two new high-zoom PowerShots join the mix in 2009: the DSLR-like 20X-optical-zoom PowerShot SX1 IS (28mm to 560mm), and the relatively compact 12X-optical-zoom SX200 IS.
The 10-megapixel SX1 IS is Canon's first PowerShot with a CMOS sensor and a full-HD movie mode that records 1080p clips and includes an HDMI output. In addition to the megazoom chops, the SX1 IS also shoots RAW-format images and has a flip-out 2.8-inch LCD screen. Optical image stabilization, motion detection, face detection, and red-eye correction round out the more beginner-friendly features. The PowerShot SX1 IS will be available in April for $600.
Also packing a megazoom lens in a smaller, boxy frame is the PowerShot SX200 IS, a 12-megapixel model with a 12X optical zoom that extends from 28mm to 336mm.
The SX200 IS's other specs are equally impressive: a 720p HD movie mode, a big 3-inch LCD screen, optical image stabilization, Smart Auto mode, motion detection, face detection, blink detection, and red-eye correction. The PowerShot SX200 will be available in black, blue, and red for $350 at the end of March.
