I had no plans to write a mini-review for the Canon SX200 IS which I bought recently, but I can't contain my excitement about its video mode, so I had to share. The story behind it is that after testing various digicams in its class, I concluded that this is the best HD video P&S digicam in the sub-$500 price range (not counting digi-recorders like the Sanyo Xacti). Read on for more info, and for some directly-out-of-the-camera samples to download and scrutinize yourselves.

It looks like a major bad point, is it not?
I understand that optical zooming while video shooting would ruin sound capture, but then you might not care about sound.
Or it could let you choose digital zooming - with a 12Mpix sensor it could do about 12x digital zoom and still have full resolution; some optical problems (like focus) would be magnified, though, but on the other hand others would diminish (like barrel distortion).
