The Canon PowerShot ZOOM – a great addition to any modern naturalist’s pocket
The Canon PowerShot ZOOM – a great addition to any modern naturalist’s pocket by Dawn Vincent
Giving users a front-row seat for life’s most easily missed moments, the Canon PowerShot ZOOM is the ideal camera for spotting wildlife on woodland walks and at local green spaces.
Naturalist, photographer, and television presenter Chris Packham tried the camera for himself, spotting and snapping fleeting birds and other wildlife which may have otherwise been missed. Smartphones, although portable, don’t often offer an adequate level of zoom to capture wildlife in the distance and not everyone is able to carry around a 400mm lens when hiking, or out on a family walk.
The Canon PowerShot ZOOM offers an easy to use solution which can be picked up by any member of the family when out looking for wildlife. Not only can you use the camera to capture high-quality stills and full HD video content, but it also doubles up as a monocular capable of spotting wildlife from afar with its super-zoom capabilities.
It’s pocket size and easy to carry (weighing just 145g)

“It’s lightweight, easy to use and has the power to make the distant very discernible. It’s the perfect telephoto partner for your smartphone as its videos and images are really easy to see and share.”
