“With a 1/2.3‑inch sensor at its heart, only so much should be expected of the SX70 HS’s image quality. That said, pleasing results at mid‑range focal lengths, together with a lovely electronic viewfinder, effective image stabilization, good autofocus performance and speedy operation make it a pleasure to shoot with.”
