Best superzoom cameras

Getting up close to your photographic subject has never been easier. We pick from the best superzoom cameras on the market today.

The Canon PowerShot SX20 IS is a solid, but not standout, superzoom option for the money.

AgfaPhoto DC-600uw

The AgfaPhoto is a cheap, knockabout waterproof camera that's ideal for life at the beach. The feature set and image quality is average but for the price you can't go too far wrong.
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.
Canon EOS 7D

Canon has created a proficient prosumer digital SLR with the 7D, sporting excellent specifications and performance such as burst shooting speed and HD movie recording.

Olympus Mju 7020
