Canon PowerShot SX60 HS

[Metal]

Is there any hope we will be seeing the Successor of SX50HS in upcoming NAB show ?

Planning to buy a Bridge Camera on April next month and Canon was always my first choice.

SX 40 HS Release Date: September 2011

SX 50 HS Release Date: September 2012
And SX 60 HS, it's April 2014 coming and no news of any possible release date, Canon really disapponted us.

Can we expect Canon will bring a signaficant time changing technology after this long wait ?

Both The SX40 and SX50 has same 12 MegaPixel so expecting to have a increase in Pixel.
SX 40 has 35X Optical zoom while SX 50 has 50X so trend saying SX 60 will have 60X optical zoom.

What others we might expect

A new Image processor ?

Bigger LCD panel at back
better lens with improved autofocus and aperture ?

What you all pro people are guessing ? Thanks

At the very least they should provide, or sell the small booklet version for those like me who prefer it and will use it and carry it around in my camera bag. I can look things up faster in the book than with a PDF that I either have to have a computer with me to use or try and navigate through on a smartphone. I have it on my Galaxy Note 3 which has a very large screen for a phone and it is a pain to use.

Amen, John. I'm witch ya'. I'm a computer nut but I still like the old small printed manual with an index. Right now I'm having to install a new version of Adobe Acrobat on my mac AIR. (Adobe Reader doesn't have the search capability)....I do keep the manuals on my AIR when I travel but I also carry the printed version to read in bed.

Reader does have search, at least on Windows (control F for find). So does the reader on my phone.

You are absolutely right! I have been used to the full version with the buttons at the top for search. I still like the full version because I can change text in Acrobat. I use a mac mostly but have 3 PCs which usually are sitting quietly in the corner. Pictures are so much easier to manipulate on the mac. IMO

I am referring to the Panasonic FZ70 camera!

It's not 2.8, it's 2.8-5.9.  The SX60 is 3.4-6.5.  That's almost no difference - less than half a stop.
