The excellent 1.8-inch LCD, with 130,000 pixels, is one of the sharpest we've tested. The screen tilts, swivels, and rotates for easy viewing of over-the-head or low-angle shots. The live-image preview has a clever real-time exposure histogram guide, where a grid overlay appears red in highlighted areas and blue in underexposed areas, enabling you to obtain near-perfect exposures in difficult lighting situations.
The C-5060's closest competitor is the new Canon PowerShot G5, which offers similar performance at a slightly higher price. But the C-5060's wider lens and lower price make it stand out, especially if you need that extra few millimeters of wide-angle coverage.
