This camera replaces a Canon Powershot SX60HS bought 11 years ago. I'm not a even a semi-pro photographer, I am just a snapshotter; that said, I love this camera. It will NOT take images of the quality one would get with a high-end DLSR and a pro-quality zoom, but I can carry it in one hand while hiking and bring it up fast to catch a bird on a tree limb before it flies, or a lizard pausing momentarily under a bush. The big zoom brings distant subjects close, and with "pretty-good" resolution. In fact, the SX70 gives much better image quality than my old SX60. The peephole viewfinder on the SX60 never worked well for me, so I always had to use the LCD screen, but the SX70 works well with peephole or screen.
Judging by my experience with the SX60, I do not expect this camera to be an all-weather, any-abuse device (get an Olympus TG Tough for that) -- I damaged my SX60 by using it unprotected in dripping-wet humidity, and eventually the image-stabilization function went crazy and had to be disabled. That said, I do expect the SX70 to be reasonably sturdy under considerate usage (though I notice that the barrel holding the zoom is plastic on the SX70 instead of aluminum as on the SX60).
The camera has the standard threaded socket for a tripod mount, though if the tripod requires a plastic shoe to attach to the camera then the shoe will block battery-and-SD card access. There is a jack for an external mic (necessary if shooting multimedia outdoors, as the internal mic loves wind noise). There are also ports for USB and HDMI.
The supplier shipped the camera along with one battery, a battery charger, a shoulder strap, and a lens cap. It did not have an owner's manual; that can be downloaded in PDF online.
Edit: On my second outing with the camera I found that taking the lens cap off sometimes pulled the small plastic ring around the lens off as well (this is the ring marked "Canon zoom lens 65 X 15"). Reattaching the ring is not difficult but requires a small blade to press the last of the three tabs into place. I put tiny dab of cyanoacrylate glue under the ring, reinserted it, and am hopeful that this prevents the problem.
I bought this camera after a lot of reading for a recent safari trip to Tanzania. It worked beautifully. The zoom was good enough for pretty much everything (the animals cooperated by coming close, ha), though yes, holding steady when at full zoom isn't easy.
I knew the pressure for photos was on me; neither my husband nor older son were going to take many pics—indeed, they just brought their phones—and my younger son had a good but older camera with less of a zoom capability. Fortunately, this Canon did not disappoint.
The only thing I added was an inexpensive shade thing that fit over the lens. Not sure if it made a difference; I just put it on and left it there.
So thankful that I made this purchase, yay!
