Here's a link http://tinyurl.com/csaas7e to my hands-on review of the PowerShot SX50 on H and B Digital's blog (our website is http://www.handbdigital.com/).
I wrote this last week, well before Hurricane Sandy. I live in Lower Manhattan, and wish I had one of these little buggers during the storm. Instead, I was lugging around my 7D with the 24-70 f/2.8, my 20D with the 17-35 f/2.8, and the 70-200 f/2.8 IS II and a flash in the bag--along with rain covers to attempt to keep the above dry (they were fine inside my Domke F1-X bag). I went back out later without the above and just my S95, nowhere near the SX50's zoom capacity. Although the SX50 isn't waterproof and not comparable to the 7D or other EOS bodies in terms of image quality, running around with that amazing zoom range and not worrying about $1000's of dollars in gear would have been great.
I'll hopefully be posting photos from Sandy on our blog later today (I'm still without power at home, but our store is open.)
Cheers,
