Canon PowerShot SX160 IS appears at Photokina, we go hands-on

In amongst the deluge of new cameras at Canon's press event here in Cologne, Germany was this looker. It's the PowerShot SX160 IS, a nice-looking, if somewhat beefy mid-range superzoom point-and-shoot. The company was showing off three different colors - the black, silver and red, and we spent the most time with the latter, the most eye-popping of the bunch. In spite of its large size - the majority of the front taken up by the lens, plus a bit of a bump up top for the flash - the camera's pretty light. It also doesn't feel particularly solid in the hand.
