Fujifilm FinePix S200EXR

The S200EXR stands on its own as a hybrid between a superzoom and SLR, with a 14.3x optical zoom lens and Fuji's Super CCD sensor. Expect great pictures but be prepared for backaches.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

The FZ35 should be at the top of any potential superzoom buyer's list, with a fully featured specification sheet and good image quality.

Reviews

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1

    Sony's DSC-TX1 is an exciting step forward for compact cameras, pushing for better image quality rather than more megapixels — and it pulls it off in style.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1

    As long as you don't want to make enlargements from full-sized images, the DSC-HX1 is an interesting, fully featured superzoom. Just beware of that exorbitant price.

  • Canon PowerShot SX200 IS

    More than just a point-and-shoot pocket superzoom, the Canon SX200 IS improves upon its forerunner, but not by much.

  • Nikon Coolpix L100

    The L100 is a curious contender for the superzoom crown. It only has a 15x optical zoom and is hampered by a lack of manual controls, but it is light and portable. Just don't expect stellar image quality.

  • Nikon Coolpix P90

    The P90 is a competent superzoom with an impressive burst rate, but loses out against its competitors on image quality and features.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28

    The FZ28 produces some very nice images for a superzoom, thanks to its superior optics. There are a few problems with noise and build quality, but for the most part this is a competent camera that can sit up there with its competitors.

  • Tamron AF18-270mm f/3.5-f/6.3 Di II VC

    If you're in the market for a wide-angle to telephoto lens, the Tamron 18-270mm is a great lens to consider amongst the big brand offerings.

  • Olympus SP-565 Ultra Zoom

    With 20x optical zoom and a tiny footprint, the SP-565 UZ is a competent superzoom, let down by some lens and picture issues.
