Canon SX280 HS vs Canon SX720 HS

Here is a detailed assessment of the Canon SX280 HS vs Canon SX720 HS, both Small Sensor Superzoom cameras and both of them are designed by Canon. There exists a significant gap among the image resolutions of the SX280 HS (12MP) and SX720 HS (20.3MP) but they possess the same exact sensor measurements (1/2.3").

The SX280 HS was released 3 years prior to the SX720 HS and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before going straight into a full comparison, below is a brief view of how the SX280 HS matches up against the SX720 HS when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon PowerShot SX280 HS and Canon PowerShot SX720 HS. The complete galleries are available at Canon SX280 HS Gallery and Canon SX720 HS Gallery.

If you're planning to carry your camera often, you're going to have to factor in its weight and measurements. The Canon SX280 HS provides outside measurements of 106mm x 63mm x 33mm (4.2" x 2.5" x 1.3") and a weight of 233 grams (0.51 lbs) and the Canon SX720 HS has proportions of 110mm x 64mm x 36mm (4.3" x 2.5" x 1.4") along with a weight of 270 grams (0.60 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you are utilising at that moment. The following is the front view proportions comparison of the SX280 HS vs the SX720 HS.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the SX280 HS and SX720 HS is 91 and 89 respectively.

More often than not, it is very hard to picture the difference in sensor sizing just by checking out specs. The photograph underneath may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the SX280 HS and SX720 HS.

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but different megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon SX720 HS to produce more detail as a result of its extra 8.3MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics far more aggressively. The older SX280 HS will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
