Our Price: $159

There’s no doubt that professional SLR cameras, even the entry levels ones like the Nikon D3000, are incredibly versatile and create amazing photographs. The main issue many people have with them is their bulk; the weight alone is enough to drag you down and bringing one along often means bringing a whole separate bag with you. Luckily Canon, world leaders in digital photography, have come along and designed the Canon PowerShot SX120 IS, small enough to fit in your pocket unlike it's brother the Canon Powershot SX10 IS, but powerful enough for manual settings and a super fast shutter speed.

The Canon Powershot SX120 IS has an incredible built in 10x optical zoom lens, equivalent to an expensive 36-360mm SLR lens, and even at maximum zoom takes incredible shots. It takes great pictures in both good light and low light settings and the controls are very easy to use, even the delayed timer is easy to set. Combine all this with the massive 10 megapixels, fast shutter speed and image stabilization system and you’ll never miss out on that important shot again.

The Canon Powershot SX120 IS is a definite step up from standard point and shoot cameras but is easier to use than any of the Canon SLRs on the market and doesn’t have any of the size or weight issues either, it's a great deal cheaper too. Make that snap decision and upgrade your photographs with a Canon Powershot SX120 IS today.
