- Sehr viel Zoom
- Solide Ausstattung
- Serienlänge unbegrenzt
- Bildstabilisator wird Zoom kaum Herr
- Ausstattung deckt nur Grundbedarf ab
- Bildqualität nimmt mit Zoomstufe rapide ab
Die Canon PowerShot SX720 HS gewährt im Test mit ihrem optischen 40fach-Zoom große Flexibilität bei der Motivwahl. Allerdings führt so viel Zoomleistung zur sichtbaren Verschlechterung der Bildqualität. Ausstattung und Geschwindigkeit siedeln sich vergleichsweise im niedrigeren Bereich an. Gemessen am Preis passt?s aber.
- Mit 24mm sehr brauchbarer Weitwinkelbereich
- Die Kamera liegt dank eines gummierten Griffes gut in der Hand
- Hohe Bildrate im Serienbildmodus (im Labor: bis zu 7,7 Bilder in der Sekunde)
- Sehr effektiver optischer Bildstabilisator
- Voll- und Halbautomatiken sowie manueller Belichtungsmodus vorhanden
- Sehr guter Makromodus (ab ca. 1cm Motivabstand)
Noch gute, kleine Kompaktkamera mit manuellen Funktionen, Superzoom und Netzwerkfunktion. Guter Monitor, grundlegende Handgriffe funktionieren einfach, für eine Kamera mit starkem Zoom ausgesprochen leicht und flach.
Bei Tageslicht sehr detailreich, schwächelt die SX720, wenn?s dunkler wird. Leider ohne Sucher.
Die Aufnahmen im Freien sind in Ordnung. In der Standardeinstellung könnten sie noch etwas mehr Schärfe vertragen. Die Farben sind wie von Canon gewohnt sehr realitätsnah und ansprechend. Die 20,3 Megapixel sind zwar gut fürs Marketing, doch physikalisch kommt der kleine Bildsensor damit an den Anschlag...
