Bonus Digital Content: The Canon PowerShot SX50 HS

Welcome, shutterbugs and gadgeteers, to the Bonus Digital Content page for our review of the Canon PowerShot SX50 HS! Below you will find photos and videos I’ve taken using the device, highlighting its remarkable 50x optical zoom range and its 100x digital zoom capacity.

Point A to Point B comparisons 

Below are sets of photos that illustrate the 100x digital zoom of the PowerShot SX50 HS. The first photo in each set was taken at the widest angle, while the second was taken at the farthest telephoto end.

Video Zoom Sample

Radioactive Sago Project’s performance of Walang Basagan ng Trip at the UST Paskuhan 2012. Despite being several yards away from the stage—as you will see in the establishing shot of the video—I was able to shoot close-ups of the band members. The close-ups had remarkable clarity, and the instruments did not sound muted or washed out.
