i want to buy an advanced point and shoot camera

[keith veigas]

please tell me which is better
1. sony hx60
2. canon sx 710hs

Both are travel zooms and have a smaller sensor. I would not call either advanced.

See sony rx100 for advanced point and shoot.

Explain what kind of photography you are interested in.

What do you mean by 'Advanced'? Do you need a larger sensor or aperture/shutter priority modes or more control over metering or may be shooting in raw? Without being specific it is difficult to tell which is more advanced.

If you need to choose between the above two then I would say both are of same capability and you won't go wrong in either of them. But personally I will favour Canon one for following reasons:

1. shorter macro distance (1cm vs 5cm)
2. slightly wider aperture range (3.2 - 6.9 vs 3.5-6.5)
3. Higher max. shutter speed (1/3200 vs 1/1600)

As they say it is unnees-bees difference.

I have a Sony HX50v (using it since Aug 14), which is exactly the same as the HX60 apart from the new user interface on the HX60. the performance is brilliant and the superior auto mode is awesome and get's most things right in good bright light. The full auto performance in low light is poor at the best of times, however with the user playing around with F/shutter speed/exposure in manual mode - one can get excellent results. I am a lazy photographer and know jack about photography and manual modes. I wanted something with excellent zoom/optics/battery life while being compact and rugged and this was the best option available. This is an excellent camera. Having read user reviews online, I have found that the HX50V performs marginally better than the HX60v. The HX50v can be picked up from Croma stores if they have old stock for 13-14k with warranty against the 20-21k the HX60v commands which I believe is a brilliant buy with excellent savings. Another option that can be considered is the Panasonic TZ60 which is a very capable travel compact.

Sony HX50v Summary:

1. Excellent build quality, super compact considering 30x optical zoom, good battery life
2. Very good performance in bright/adequate light situations in Superior Auto Mode
3. Even better performance in Manual mode if you can set it up properly (unlike me)
4. Poor Low light performance in Auto Modes
5. Natural colours
6. Excellent macro mode performance
7. Excellent performance with Optical Zoom upto 30x
8. Good image stabilization at maximum zoom
9. Hot shoe provided for adding a range of accessories to the camera
10. Decent video quality

Bottomline :: A very capable travel compact camera with phenomenal zoom and excellent overall performance

The question is like asking which guitar makes better music. Depends on you. Better shots happen because you worked to get them.

i just want a small camera at that budget i dont want the rx100

We have no clue what your requirements even are ?

budget is not a requirement, its a constraint and a moving one at that. Don't let budget dictate or compromise your requirement. You don't have to buy now, you can always save up and get better later.
