Stiftung WarentestSingle testReleaseJuly 2017

Still good, small compact camera with super zoom, manual functions and network function. Good monitor to fold, basic handles work easily, decidedly light and flat for a camera with a strong zoom.

This test report belongs to a different type: PowerShot SX730 HS (24 - 960 mm, 20.30 Mpx, 1/2,3'')
