... Die kleine Canon braucht recht lange fürs Einschalten, reagiert danach aber fix. Nicht nur im Urlaub praktisch: In ihrem Mini-Gehäuse steckt ein 40-fach-Zoom; damit füllen auch sehr weit entfernte Motive das Bild aus. Was fehlt, ist ein Sucher - für den war im Mini-Gehäuse kein Platz.

Bei den Kompaktkameras holt die Sony Cybershot RX100 VI den Testsieg - mit Top-Bildqualität und -Ausstattung in einem Minigehäuse. aber eben auch mit einem Preisschild von 1300 Euro. Nur 370 Euro kostet der ebenso kompakte Preis-Leistungs-Sieger: Die Panasonic Lumix TZ91 ist mit noch mehr Zoom die ideale Reisekamera, schwächelt aber bei der Bildqualität, wenn`s dunkler wird...
