Kay 3,709 Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Nice pics Kay , been thinking about buying the sx 50 , because of its zoom capabilities , how do you find the sx 40 Judging bye your pics your doing well with it I doubt I will pick up a dslr again . this camera for me is compact enough to stick in a handbag so I dont have to take a camera bag out with me ... no faffing with lens changes while I am out , theres enough quick find modes on it & 3 manual settings .. a few quirky ones like fish eye & a few others that i tend not to use the zoom on this equates to 840mm optical zoom ... its more than enough for what I need & to be honest if I compare stuff I took on my other camera with a 250mm zoom theres very little difference in quality This camera for me is a winner regarding the screen that comes out enabling me to get shots at floor level ... all in all for the kind of pics I take it meets all my needs & beond ... at the hobby level i am its perfect & I would reccomend this series of cameras.... As for rapid shooting... its quicker than my dslr .. but its only failing on that quick fire setting is the slight buffering .. it may well be my card isnt quite quick enough .. other than that most of the modes offer a choice of one shot ... rapid fire & rapid fire whilst focusng on the subject ... For a small compact camera theres loads on it & imo worth the couple of hundred it cost This is just an example of a pic I took using the rapid fire mode... i didnt think it was to bad a result for a point & shoot 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FUJI 16,330 Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Ive been reading the reviews on this camera since I seen your pics that you have taken with it Kay and it seems to have rave reviews from everyone? I only have the old Canon DSLR's and like you say the lenses are a nuisance at times and to be honest I can't afford one of those L series lenses which would no doubt improve things lol...I think I may pack up the DSLR's and get myself one of these,I think it would suit all my needs for certain..thanks for putting your own wee review on ..Atb Andy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have no doubt that good glass & a decent body will give amazing results .. but for my hobby this fits the bill perfectly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
