Having owned a Canon SX5 and SX10, I am very familiar with this family. My big decision was whether to jump to a DSLR: Rebel T2i or 60D. I finally decided to stick with the group and go up to the SX30. I realize the sensor is smaller and there is no RAW feature, but I don't have a lot of time to sit with images and tweak them in Photoshop. Living on the beach, I wanted something that would pick out wildlife well, do a good job on the zoom and give me HD video if I wanted it. The SX30 is a good choice for those and I'm glad I made the decision.

PROS of Canon SX30IS 14.1MP Digital Camera
1. They got rid of the four AA batteries and went to a proprietary lithium ion. Great choice; it really makes this camera lighter than its previous models. Get a second one on E-bay and use as a back up.
2. The grip is a bit larger. Makes it feel more sturdy in your hands.
3. The zoom is just amazing. Disengage the digital zoom (don't we all?) and use the 35X optical. It's just great, though at the extremes, you need a good, solid tripod especially if you are using video.
4. The 720 HD video works very well and you can zoom optically up to 35X. Again, use a tripod or at least a monopod.

CONS of Canon SX30IS 14.1MP Digital Camera
1. No RAW mode. If that's a deal breaker, move up to the Rebel category, but you'll spend four times as much money to get a zoom length of this size.
2. No printed manual. I always found useful the little 3x5 bound complete guide in previous models as it was was handy in the field. No such luck here. You have to print out your own from a supplied CD that has it as a .pdf file. I was able to find a third party that sells something similar to what they used to provide, but when spending this kind of money, Canon should throw in a printed manual.

All in all, this camera is a good investment and I highly recommend it.

As always, Amazon sent this quickly and in good shape.
