Canon has added two new superzooms to its PowerShot line-up: the SX20 and SX120.

The 12-megapixel SX20 features a flip-out screen and 20x zoom. It also films 720p high-definition video. The 10-megapixel SX120 includes a 10x zoom, and shoots VGA movies.

The SX20 is the follow-up to the PowerShot SX10 while the SX120 is the sequel to the SX110. The two new cameras join the IXUS 200 and 120, PowerShot G11 and S90 in today's new line-up.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
