Nice review on the SX 20. I just purchased this camera and noticed I don't have the same menu options you do. For instance I don't have the Servo AF, Continuous AF, MF-Point Zoom, Safety MF, Spot AE Point, and i-Contrast. Do you have any idea why? Do you know if I will have control over the IS features without them? Thanks.
@csanand17 Thank you. Personally, I would go for the SX20IS because of the DSLR styled body and the 20x optical zoom. The SX210IS on the other hand has 14 megapixels and a compact body. Personally I would go for the SX20IS.
Does the Camera have an External Microphone Jack for Movie Mode? =/

@DreNewz Read your manual. I doubt it however.

Can you manually focus the camera by turning the ring around the lens?

Cool review. Plenty of details and close-up shots helping me cover a lot of the ground before even going to the store.

@iToxikify Yes, I think it is a good advanced beginner camera.
