Canon PowerShot SX1 IS - Good Condition | Advanced Bridge Camera with 10MP Sensor, 20x Optical Zoom and Full HD Video

The Canon PowerShot SX1 IS is a feature-packed and highly capable bridge camera that delivers an impressive 20x optical zoom — equivalent to 28-560mm — alongside Full HD 1080p video recording in a comfortable and ergonomic DSLR-style body. The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture at the wide end is a genuine practical advantage — delivering excellent low-light performance and beautiful background separation rarely found in bridge cameras of this class.
