[Canon Rumors]

Below are a couple of images of upcoming PowerShot superzooms. We have the 16x zoom PowerShot SX160 IS and the 30x zoom PowerShot SX500 IS. Both cameras  will be arriving soon.

Interesting, is the SX500 the replacement for the SX40?

[Daniel Flather]

Where's the 90x zoom model?

[mchubi]

Still waiting for a Lumix FZ150/ upcoming FZ200 opponent from Canon.

Two New PowerShot Cameras this month? Neither of these cameras seem like successors for the G12 I do hope this 'news' is wrong and there is a G series to be released soon.

Anyway if SX160 IS s a successor to the SX150 IS
http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/digital_cameras/powershot_sx150_is
 then it probably wont have an articulated screen like the G series. As to the sensor well that's anyone's guess??? Processor is not digic 5, no raw? I'll pass.

Where's the 90x zoom model?

urgently waiting for it, and it should have at least 36Mp to compete with the nikon D800. Maybe it has even a dept of field mode to simulate the FF sensor

[DzPhotography]

completely not interested... 

[akiskev]

Both of these cameras look kinda ugly..
Anyway, a compact sized camera with a powerful zoom is always tempting!
SX500 IS is a new line?

[noncho]

5.8 and 5.9 on the long end?
No, thanks!

Canon - where is your compact camera with bright lens???
28-200 2.4-3.5L with 2/3" 8 years ago and you can't do it better now? It's profitable to sold DSLR and lenses to prosumers...

[Gman]

No thanks. I thought when a couple of new Powershots were going to be announced at least one would be the successor to the G12.   

[Gman]

Well folks here they are apparently and obviously no successor to the G12, how utterly disappointing. Maybe we have to wait till Photokina for that? 

[powershot2012]

Agree, but I though the G12 and S100 successors were due to be announced later this month?

No thanks. I thought when a couple of new Powershots were going to be announced at least one would be the successor to the G12.

  So.... how exactly do I visit that website (*%&#^%$@*.net)?  Can't even type that in.

+1 on the appearance note...

[hmmm]

the lenses are a little slow.    I enjoy my SX 230 HS as a fun little P&S camera -- but its replacement got slower at the wide end, and with these cameras the trend continues...

How about some 70D 6D 3D 7DmkII rumors....  Here's an inclusive compendium...
