Your link didn't get me there for some reason. Here is a direct link to it
http://estore.canon.ca/shop/en-CA/catal ... HlTqdLF-8I

Includes free shipping and a Canon reusable tote bag.

This same refurbished camera is on sale with Canon USA as a Black Friday special for $199.

Good full review of this camera here.

I pulled the trigger too fast and forgot to check, but you can get 5X Airmiles on this when going through airmileshops.ca

Yes. They are thoroughly tested to ensure no defects and there is a 1year warranty. Only major gripe with this camera is the bad battery life esp if you use the LCD instead of viewfinder.

This camera has solid reviews...

The fact that its recently released and popular successor didn't do very well here is of no consequence to the reputation of the SX50, as it remains in our book one of the most recommended cameras in this class. Looking for a fun, family superzoom, or just a good, all-around reliable performer? The SX50 is a safe bet for any of these needs and has our wholehearted seal of approval. As we stated earlier in this review, it's a tried and true workhorse and deserves to be in the consideration of anyone looking for a solid performer in this class.

Seriously considering this camera as my Lumix keeps getting dust on the sensor resulting in blotches in many of my pictures with lighter backgrounds.

Anyone know how long you can set the aperture time for?
I like doing nighttime landscape shots, but my current camera does 10seconds tops.

Thanks! :)

If it's refurbished by Canon Canada, steer well clear. They have untrained chimps doing the work, in my experience.

Comes with one year warranty. Even if "chimps" have performed the work (granted there was work to be done), it will fail sooner than a year.

Please don't insult the chimps. Rememeber the ikea monkey that was taken away from their owner. These animals don't have it easy in Canada anymore.

Off to throw feces at my reflection in the mirror now. Maybe watch Gorilla's in the midst later.

I was on the Canon website yesterday looking at other models, and was surprised to find the SX50 available again. I ordered one, and am eager to see what condition it's in. I have an SX510, but the 50 has the longer zoom, Digic5 processor, raw format, viewfinder, and more that I'm interested in.
