Well, not MOST CAMERA, just the ones with smaller bodies. All the higher end DSLRs have the battery door aligned in vertical instead of horizontal at the base plate.

These low light shots from SX50 by mustafa nazif really astounding.

He is a digital artist and professional photographer and you can see all his previous photo collection in his photostream shot with 5D Mark III.
And thats a difference between me and him. It's not about the camera, sensor size and expensive lenses, it's all about skill.

In the hand of the pro, bridge camera like SX50 can produce amazingly quality images without doubt.

Hey superzoom can shoot baby photos too. Not many pictures in flickr but still...

Seriously at 13fps high burst mode in full resolution or its native shutter speed as fast as 1/2000 can be extended to 1/100000 " with CHDK there is no reason you wont be able to capture the most hyper active toddler even your wife gave birth to baby lipas.

SX50 captures in flight hummingbird, freeze rotating blades, fast moving jet plane in the sky, don't tell me your children's movement can top that speed. I mean what planet are you from?

Check out these beautiful shots by Ronei Pehls yesterday with his SX50

If you're to check out recently shot photos by various SX50 owners, you'll definitely see pictures of the moon. These few really caught my attention:-


Essa lua do cerrado!


Flying to the moon


Luna anaranjada


Darkside of the moon with Venus in the background

this camera is nice

Gleiton Filho shows off his creativity with bunch of interesting shots he took using sx50




He probably sums up this cam capability by taking it from 0 cm macro to the street, from bright light to low light, from the sky to saturn.

One thing great about Gerald L. Campbell is his marvelous black and white street photography collection. Here his recent shots with SX50







Check out the whole collection. Who could have thought that all these are taken using a superzoom:-

OMG .. much better than my SX20.

How is the shooting speed?

Install Exif Viewer extension for chrome https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/e...pkbplhkoiekndck

Then go to flickr click on the picture you want to view and click original. Once you mouseover the original photo, you can see the basic exif data of the photo including shutter speed on the top left.

Amyshaped is a concert goer, but she doesnt always have the privilege to be in the front row and bringing huge DSLR without getting confiscated at the entrance. So she sneaked in with SX50 in her jacket and the camera did a good job getting shot from far, in low light and fast moving artist on the stage.


This is how far her seat from the stage

New Kids On The Block (NKOTB) anyone?






Jordan Knight


Donnie Wahlberg


Joey McIntyre

Check more NKOTB, 98 Degrees, Kelly Clarkson in concert all shot using SX50:-

Probably need to use one for event photography in November, should I wait for SX60 to come out? Wonder how much will the pricing be and whether the vari-angle screen will still be available or not..

hi chokia......ur posts on this thread are pretty amazing & very helpful....i was trying out motion detect scripts from the CHDK wiki page for the sx50 hs. but none of those are fast enough....most scripts are incompatible....for the few that work the camera takes quite sometime to detect the motion and click a photograph. have you tried any motion detect script that u found suitable? pls share....thanks!!!

Hi, anyone know where can i buy the adapter ring to fix the Raynox DCR-250 with SX50HS please? i search in google only Lensmate got sell but it's at America. hope can find in malaysia.

Ebay dont have meh? I thought the box come with the clip on adapter? I also want to buy DCR-250 from ebay but wait until ringgit appreciate.




Anyway today i play with adobe photoshop cc a lil bit since there's no way to get the below composition in real life so have to tipu with photoshop



Happy Moon Cake Festival - I hantam so many in the office (free) and the starbucks one (pic) also very nice.

Looks like Canon delay SX50 successor in October instead of September

I really wish it doesnt look like a DSLR or bridge camera, should have slimmer body like Sony NEX line or better without body like QX100


Imagine Superzoom like this :-
