 Canon Powershot sx100 December 31, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This camera is awesome. This is a great camera for someone who wants to start out just amimming and shooting but also wants features of a 35 mmSLR in the future. It can take the novice photographer to higher creative levels when they are ready to move on to bigger and better things. It is very user friendly, has great features to play with or just aim and shoot in auto mode. Either way you will get great pictures.
 Very slow camera..Not impressed with picture quality as well December 30, 2007

I was using Canon A610 before buying this camera and was extremely satisfied. I thought of upgrading to some advanced camera and bought SX100 IS but am not impressed at all. It has a very slow response time between shots. Picture quality is also not very impressive. Another problem is its flash. It has a pop-up flash which needs to be poped out manually. There are great chaces that you will foret to pop it out and would loose precious shots..huh!
I'm returning this camera.
Great Camera with really good zoom December 29, 2007
I bought this camera a month back and I am totally impressed with it. Photo quality is great, IS works really nice and video mode also works brilliantly.
Its handly pocket camera and looks really nice.
It has only one drawback and that is flash recycle time. Its bit high, but can be still not a bad deal.
In low light it works really good and night mode photos are really clear.
About Battery, purchase pair of rechangable batteries and it would work nice. It always better to keep backup batteries.
Overall really nice camera and overall a good deal!!

This is an excellent camera for the money. We were previously using a Canon PowerShot S30 (3.2 MP) for many years, and it was time for a new one. Of course, considering our old camera, any modern camera would be an improvement, but this one in particular is fantastic for many reasons. I have large hands, and hate the puny "cigarette pack" cameras with the tiny buttons. This one is large and the side grip (on the right side of the camera while holding it) is very comfortable and secure - even though it has a wrist strap I know I'll never drop it. Add to that that I've taken several photos and movies with it without even opening the instruction manual, I'm very happy with it. I believe after reading the manual I'll be able to do almost anything with it. Perfect camera for the casual, "point and click" user.
More pluses: Uses AA batteries (I use rechargeables but you could use ordinary batteries if you get stuck on a trip for example), takes SD memory cards (very common, all modern PCs, printers, and even some TVs use them), takes great digital mini-movies (about 100meg per minute, with a large SD card you can take respectable home movies)
On the minus side, obviously this is intended for the casual/novice user, makes a great family camera, but of course if you're a pro you'll want something more (and probably wouldn't be reading this anyway). It doesn't have a viewfinder, but I certainly don't miss it, the screen is large and bright. Also, if you're looking to put this into your pocket, it won't fit, so you'll need a small camera bag.
The only real problem I had with this was when I made a movie of my son's ninth birthday party, the candles caused an odd reflection in the movie - probably something to do with the lens. He ended up with 9 little dots around his face, even though the cake was in front of him. Not a real big deal, it came out kind of cool.
Bottom line: Strongly recommended for family use or if you're looking for a great value for the money. Having owned a Canon before this new one is great and I know I'll buy Canon again when it's time to replace this camera. Recommend going to a "brick and mortar" store and trying it out, then come back and buy it on Amazon - their price cannot be beat! And with super-saver shipping, it got here in 3 days!
 Canon SX100 December 29, 2007

The camera takes exceptionally good and clear pictures. The 10X zoom comes in very handy. The camera feels sturdy and I havent had any problems with the scroll wheel, which i have read about in some other reviews of the product. But night time photography reduces the shot-to-shot time horrendously. Its highly frustrating when u want to take a few quick shots and you end up waiting for ages. I found the flash range to be a bit less. I havent used any other megazoom, so I cannot compare. If a high optical zoom isnt your top priority, you might wanna consider other models, otherwise, its a good camera overall.
