Canon’s top of the line point and shoot, the SX280 HS, showed up in my snailbox this afternoon. First impressions, I love it. It has some nice heft and a zoom lens with great extension. I had it setup quickly without the manual.
After charging the battery for a bit I applied the latest Canon firmware and then took it for a walk around the house. The first shot was taken from my desk, the Tori modified birdhouse was next and then some shots of the neighborhood and yard.
These photos were taken on full auto just to see what it can do in that mode. Not bad at all, but it’s time to dig into the manual :-)

You found some very nice shots for your new camera. The colors are fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more of your findings.
I highly recommend Canon and stay far away from Panasonic!
