Canon PowerShot SX280 HS

Introduced in 2013, the Canon PowerShot SX280 HS is a powerhouse travel zoom that packs an impressive 20x optical zoom lens into an easily pocketable body. It combines a 12.1-megapixel High Sensitivity CMOS sensor with Canon’s swift DIGIC 6 image processor and a clear 3.0-inch LCD screen.

It is built for travelers, road-trippers, and weekend explorers who want the flexibility to capture both wide scenic landscapes and close-ups of distant landmarks without carrying separate lenses. The intelligent image stabilization keeps shots steady through the zoom range. As a practical caveat, running features like zoom and video extensively will draw on the compact battery, and images at the far 20x end soften in low light, making it best appreciated as an outdoor daylight travel champion.

All cameras are meticulously tested 3 times before being put up for sale. A 4th and final testing will be done prior to shipping out.
