 What a Great Product!!! May 17, 2008
I have two "film" SLRs by Canon and they have served me well over the years. I decided to go digital and read all the reviews on many digital models before choosing the Canon SX100IS. For performance and price this model can't be beat. You won't regret buying this camera, for yourself or as a gift for someone else.
 Great Value May 14, 2008

This camera is not only cheap and easily operatable but also great. The only reason i give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the camera manual makes slight mention about RAW images even though on my camera i have had it come up saying RAW a couple of times on the screen for some of my images. Even though most people say it doesn't have the capabilities for it, Trust me i have had it say it a couple of times but i cannot remember how i got it to do it lol. This camera is great for getting quality photos and all the images are crisp and clean except for occasional noise within the photo, which only shows up by the way if you use the camera with a low battery. This camera however eats regular Alkaline batteries like mad so i would suggest buying a set of rechargable batteries unless you want to spend a fourtune. Even though it has no Veiw finder to look through the display works like a charm just as well. Even though it might be slightly expensive for people on a budget it is a really GREAT camera and it is worth buying. I have had no run ins with bugs or problems with it. The image stabilizer also makes sure that the occurrence of blurs and shake effects are minimal at best. So if you want a good camera BUY THIS ONE!!!!!!

While I love shopping with Amazon, I also love a "best price" deal. I did a Google search and have found this camera available for $207-$208, new, shipping included, elsewhere. Being loyal to Amazon, I'll wait a week to see if Amazon's price drops - if not, I'll pay the better price elsewhere.
Amazing camera for the price May 9, 2008

I went to a brick-and-mortar store to see how this camera handled and have to say I was unimpressed. I couldn't hold it very securely because the power source/security device made it difficult to manage the menus and buttons. Since I teach computers at the middle school level, I really wanted to get a camera with manual controls because, with a point-and-shoot, you're really only teaching composition. The other option is a $600 entry-level DSLR. So I got the SX100.
I am so glad I did. I was able to take great shots right out of the box. There was no awkwardness with the manual controls, the pictures came out great, and indoor shots were just as fantastic as outdoor shots. As someone else mentioned, pictures indoors with flash really aren't as good as pictures without flash. The auto settings sort themselves out and produce really sweet images.
Someone also mentioned trying to shake the camera to make a blurry picture. I took this one step further. I drove down the highway at 55 mph and took shots perpendicular to the line of travel. They turned out crystal clear.
One of the features I like is the button that lets you view previously taken pictures without turning on your camera. It is nice not to have the lens come out on startup. Sure, you could turn the dial to the Play icon before you power up, but that's an extra step. I really like the simplicity of the one-touch image viewing. Also, to switch to camera mode, just press the shutter and you are ready to take pictures.
