The SX10 IS was brought out 8 years prior to the SX620 HS which is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of the cameras come with different body type with the Canon SX10 IS being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Canon SX620 HS being a Compact camera.

Before diving through a in depth comparison, below is a brief highlight of how the SX10 IS matches up vs the SX620 HS in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon PowerShot SX10 IS & Canon PowerShot SX620 HS. The entire galleries are viewable at Canon SX10 IS Gallery & Canon SX620 HS Gallery.

If you are aiming to travel with your camera, you need to take into account its weight and volume.

Sometimes, it can be difficult to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions merely by looking through a spec sheet. The picture here might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the SX10 IS and SX620 HS.

As you can see, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different megapixels. You can expect to see the Canon SX620 HS to render greater detail having its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The more aged SX10 IS will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
