Looking for a camera that you can use to shoot pictures of the wildlife in your backyard, and anything else you can see? Then this neat Canon bridge camera could be just the thing to use as you sit in self-isolation. And it will be a great camera for travelling, as and when we are all free to roam the world again.

The big selling point of the Canon PowerShot SX540 HS is its huge 50x zoom... which offers an equivalent focal range of a 24-1200mm zoom. Now that is great for shooting wide-angle interiors – but also for getting close-up shots of that bird on a branch at the end of the garden. In fact, with so much optical power, it will give you jaw-dropping close-ups of the moon too. And there is built-in image stabilization too - so that you don't have to panic about camera shake.
