Either way, in every other respect the SX240 HS and SX260 HS are identical, so all tests and results are applicable to both models. For example in North America, only the GPS-equipped SX260 HS is on sale. In regions which offer both models, this gives you the choice whether to go for GPS or not, but in other regions only one model may be available. So far the SX240 HS and SX260 HS are identical, so what’s the difference between the two models? It boils down to a single feature: the SX260 HS has a built-in GPS receiver whereas the SX240 HS does not. The best quality movie mode remains 1080p24, and the 3 inch LCD screen has the same diagonal size, but its aspect ratio has changed from 16:9 to 4:3, and the image stabilisation has been updated to Canon’s new Intelligent IS system.
That puts them on a equal footing with Panasonic’s market leading Lumix ZS20 / TZ30 and Sony’s HX20V / HX30V.Ĭanon has resisted the opportunity to increase the resolution and has stuck with a 12.1 Megapixel back-illuminated CMOS sensor, but the image processor has been upgraded to the Digic 5. The headline feature with pocket super-zooms is obviously the optical range and Canon has extended the reach of the PowerShot SX240 HS and SX260 HS to 20x with a new lens that’s equivalent to 25-500mm. The Canon PowerShot SX240 HS and SX260 HS are Canon’s 2012 pocket super-zoom replacements for the PowerShot SX230 HS.
