LCD resolution of the Canon SX10
The rear LCD screen of the Canon PowerShot SX10 IS has a resolution of 230,000 dots and measures 2.5 inches across its diagonal. A high-resolution display offers a clearer and crisper user experience than a lower pixel screen, notably during live view framing and image review. While the physical size of the LCD is naturally limited by the space that is available on the back of the camera, the resolution of the rear screen has continued to increase over time, with new camera models often featuring nicer rear panels as one of the key arguments for a camera upgrade.
