 Very Nice Camera February 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This has been an excellent camera thus far. Used it at a college backetball and from the last row in the arena I was able to get close ups of the floor. Would recommend it.
Excellent product!!! A chilean girl certifified.... February 8, 2008
I'm from Chile and its the first time I buy through Amazon. I choose this camera and once I get it, I can only say that's all what I expected!!! I was afraid about the weight, but its very confortable to carry. The zoom is really awesome.
I totally recomend Cannon Cameras, this is my second one, the instructions are clear and its easy to understand.
I will take pictures of my beautiful country and I will post it...
 Great camera February 1, 2008

I have been greatly impressed with the Canon SX10909IS. The pitchers are sharp and clear, the image stabilization works well and the 10X optical zoom has been great for getting those close up shorts. Even the 40X digital zoom had given me great looking pitchers compared to any other digital zoom I have used even when they were only a 15X digital zoom. The quick and easy adjustment of the f stop helped create great sunset views. The only negative I have found was taking pitchers in dim light when I couldn't use a flash or the subject was too far away for a flash, such as city lights at night. I am sure with a little more experience with the camera and by adjusting the shutter speed I might be able to correct that problem. Overall the best digital camera I have used or owned.
canon super easy camera January 29, 2008

I have owned a series of cameras over the last 40 years. In my earlier years, I was a professional photographer. Now I just want to take record shots of my grandchildren and my travels. The Canon SX 100 is an easy camera to operate (without even looking at the manual) and the picture quality is outstanding. With the 4 GB memory card in place, I can shoot hundreds of pictures without transfering them to my computer.
I love this camera
So versatile, so EASY! January 28, 2008

I used to dabble in amature photography. Mostly trees. I like trees, and they basically stand still.
But once I had my kids, and the digital age set in, I had to pack up my old SLR and get with something that could keep up with them.
I first owned a polaroid of some sort that took a hundred years to download, and had no room for memory expansion... Held about twelve pictures, and also, stank. So I bought a nice Pentax Point and shoot and kept dragging rolls of film in for awhile.
I finally took the plunge when the 5mp cameras came out and bought a samsung digimax. Hm... It served a purpose and took good outdoor shots. Lots of red-eye and taking any photos in flourescent light was forbidden.
I had a few other play cameras, like an oregon scientific, and some other pocket pix ones and decided to look around this year.
After lots of shopping, I settled on the Canon that you are now looking at.
What a camera.
Here are the features I was looking for.
1. Picture clarity. You can have all the megapixels you want but that does not make for a clear picture... there are a lot of other factors involved.
2. Versatility, (as in I can take pictures inside and outside, of moving objects and such without blurring, light problems, etc...)
3. Small- I dont want to drag around a giant camera. I take my SLR with me with all the lenses if I wanted to do that.
4. The zoom has to actually work. I mean-- a lot of zoom is great, but not if the picture always looks like a colorful cloud-- This camera has image stabilizing, and it WORKS
5. I wanted the camera to take a picture RIGHT when I clicked... My samsung had the nasty habit of waiting around seven years of me holding the button down until the red eye and many other factors were done "warming up" before actually taking a picture. Needless to say, there was never an option for a candid shot.... Lots of photos of the back sides of people though, and peoples faces right after something happened...
So, The Canon has it all. For years, Canon has been working to make photography easy for dorks like me
THe image stabilizer works amazingly.
The images are sharp.
The camera is small and light weight.
The red eye reduction works all the time.
The face finder rocks
The Zoom comes out with clear pictures-within reason anyway-
shots with and without a flash come out wonderfully and well lit whether or not I use the flash!
The camera can take picture after picture with virtually no rest period, and no warm up time.
Here is what I found out and was surprised by, and LOVE!
Switching to different modes is easy, totally self explanatory.
This beautiful little camera uses batteries VERY conservatively.
My old camera took maybe.... 60 shots before I had to replace the batteries, and I should, God forbid, take a film with this camera, I dont have to stop and replace the batteries after three minutes of filming.
On the two energizer lithiums, (batteries I used in my last camera too) I have taken two hours worth of film shorts, about three hundred and fifty photos and I have turned it on at least 20 times to go through the photos and used it like a brag book. Now, the battery says empty, but it is still going strong. So, when you get this, dont change the batteries the second you lose all your bars.... You have a good few hundred pictures left on it.
I am SO happy with this camera. The price is just icing on the cake.
I only got it a month ago, for the holidays, and I have just been trialing it.... I have not even delved into the world of features it offers.
I cant wait.
