This is yet another one of the compact ultra zoom IS cameras. Canon seems to have played a delicate balancing game with this one -and hit upon a winning strategy. The camera's big points are great image quality at ISO 200 or less, IS for steady images all the way extended, a usable high ISO (not great, but usable - especially if you have something like noise ninja), light weight, AA batteries, and a video mode. Another bonus is a general Canon bonus, they do very little in the way of image processing in camera so the higher iso photos, while not as good as the lower, respond better to post processing than cameras that do a large amount of in camera noise reduction. The facial focusing is really a nice feature and the auto focus is lightening fast - I was quite impressed.
If you know the Canon UI, the SX100 is simply a wonderful refinement of it. Setting anything is almost completely intuitive. now if you do have big hands, the scroll wheel may be a problem, but that's about the only flaw that I could see - and for me, that wasn't even an issue
The downsides would be that there isn't RAW processing - but for a cheap camera, this isn't unexpected. The video doesn't let you zoom as its shooting - for that you'd need the S5, the wide end isn't all that wide, and higher iso isn't all that great (but better than other point and shoots (if you want quality here, you are looking at dSLRs) - and really those are the main downsides - all trade-offs I was willing to make.
At the end of the day, if the iso is less than 200, you'll get great photos. IS makes it easier to take tele photo images that aren't blurred due to camera shake - and it works well. If you are looking for a cheap, good, light point and shoot this may be the one.

You will not be able to put this camera in your shirt pocket. It does not come with the tastefully designed case you get with the Digital Elph - actually, it comes with no case at all - but, unlike digital SRLs, it will not cause a permanent spine damage, while still providing a pletora of manual options. The sharpness and color rendition are fine for my unprofessional eye, and among its features I really like the ability to "downgrade" an already taken shot to a lower resolution; saves space while giving you an option of still keeping this "not so great, but..." picture.
My major concern was the batteries: how many should I carry? I started with two Energizer Li batteries, which I get cheaply in bulk at the Sam's Club. After a week of vacation and more than 300 shots on highest resolution/largest size, many taken with flash, I still didn't need to change batteries! This leaves my Canon rechargable battery pack unused and unopened.
"Facial recognition" works great if faces are big enough and subjects are directly facing camera. I use it to see whether anyone's eyes are closed on the picture - it's much faster than usual scrolling and zooming.
Macro mode works great - so much better than in smaller Cannon cameras!
Image stabilization: I did not notice much effect of it, especially with higher zoom, but I didn't test it specifically.
To me, this camera is a great transition from the credit card-sized point-and-shoot-and-email-it cameras to something different, which might eventually help me to make prints worth hanging on the wall.

I upgraded from the Canon Powershot S3 looking to benefit from the slimmer form factor so I can put it in my pocket for hiking, backpacking, and stadium events. For general photography, I would rely on my Nikon D80. Under low light condition, indoor and especially in stadium shows, I was really impressed with the camera's performance and stunning image quality even at the maximum 10x optical zoom. I was able to capture moving subjects in Auto mode in low light condition a good 90 percent of the time. This is impressive for a point-and-shoot camera and I would be even more impress if the flash recharge time can be reduce from the 7 to 8 seconds delay. I've tested the macro feature as well and find it very impressive.
I like the large 2.5 LCD display which makes composing and viewing results so much more enjoyable. The video quality is amazing, yes even for indoor shows. I also like the zoom control position conveniently right next to the shutter but it could be more accurate. I think the amazing attractive price point makes it truly a compelling buy. The only aspect that I don't like is the part that everyone else has pointed out, that is, the memory card is in the battery compartment now. That is just a warp design, so I have to resort to transfering pictures using the provided USB cable instead of taking out the memory card. Canon deserves to get ding on that point, but it's not too burdensome to use the cable instead.
Overall, I am very happy with the camera and will definitely recommend it.

Just received this item yesterday and have put it thru the typical workout. The battery issue that has been reported by some here does not seem to be a problem using 1400 MAH rechargeable NIMH batteries. These are low powered older batteries and I haven't even tried my 2700 MAH MAHA brand batteries in it. Probably won't bother.
I'm a professional photographer who has a fondness for point and shoot camera's to hack around with. I'm amazed at the features of this camera for only $220 INCLUDING SHIPPING. I've purchased five point and shoots and so far, this one is the best of the bunch. I still like my A95 because of the swivel, adjustable lcd monitor.
The image quality of the SX100 is more that adequate for the price range. The Image Stablization works very well, just as advertized. Very intuitive features and layout, especially if you're accustomed to point and shoots, and especially with Canon's.
I even turned on the digital zoom and got some very nice 40x images, considering the price of the camera. I am not a fan of digital zooms but this is again, more than adequate, if you need it in a pinch.

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!!!!!!

I bought this camera 6 months ago, and so far it's been a piece of junk! I've had to send it back to Canon for repairs three times. The first time I used it the lens stuck open and wouldn't retract. The second time they had to replace the whole optical assembly and the third time the Image Stabilizer didn't work. What a drag!

I just bought this camera to replace an older Sony camera (which I could never get to take good pics without editing them). Well with the Canon, no editing necessary.. Pics come out perfect every time! Nice true color (unlike Sonys), not too dark, and very sharp, crisp images. I was totally amazed that I could even see the bright LCD screen outside in the sun!! We have had many digital cameras, and this is by far the BEST we've ever owned! It is the most feature-packed camera I've ever seen. There are so many pre-defined modes I can't remember them all, but some good ones were Portrait, Kids & Pets, Nighttime, Landscape, Indoors, Snow, and even Fireworks! The face detection feature is amazing, and I also like that it shoots 16:9 widescreen pics. The menus are easy to use.. I started using this right out of the box, without even having read the manual. The 10x optical zoom is fantastic, and I just discovered the digital zoom goes all the way out to 40x! The zoom is AMAZING for such a small camera! This is not as small as other pocket-size cams, but it still fits nicely in my purse, which is important. Dimensions are about 5x3x3, making it pretty hard to find a nice case for it right now, since most other cameras these days are only about 3 in. wide and an inch thick (and I am not fond of the style of case Canon makes for this). But hopefully third parties will starting making cases for this camera. The only other thing I could wish for this camera is a lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack, so we don't have to buy AA's or use the short-lived Nickel Metal-Hydride (NiMh) batteries that end up developing the memory effect. Other than that, I can't say enough about this wonderful camera. You name it, the Canon PowerShot SX100IS does it!!!

My objective in buying this camera was to get a bigger (10x) zoom compared to what I was using (3x). This camera also has more pixels (8MP vs 5MP) than previous.
POSITIVES: Love the zoom, works well. Picture quality is excellent.
NEGATIVES: This camera is HEAVY! and it's big; while it fits in my pocket like my other one, it's not very comfortable. Buy a case & put it on your belt. It's also very complicated, and I know I'm not using it to max potential. I've just found a setting that works, and I'm ignoring the other 10-12 dial options; I just want to take pictures! It's also a heck of a lot faster than my last camera, so I'm relearning timing on motion shots (jumping horses).
OVERALL: Heck of a nice camera, probably more than I need but well worth the price. Wish somebody made a nice, simple, no frills 10x or higher camera; I'm sure I paid for a zillion things I'm not using and don't need.

I drool over pictures that people take with SLRs, and I really wanted to be able to take pictures of that quality, but not spend the $600 to do it. I thought that with this camera's manual settings that I'd be able to play a little bit. Turns out it was too much fuss to take pictures of my kids. If I was sitting outside with them, I could get crisp beautiful close-ups. But inside the house in the later evening hours, I'd miss spur-of-the-moment shots. The camera would tell me to lift the flash. If I didn't lift the flash, the image was terribly blurry, which makes sense because the shutter was compensating for the lack of light. But if I used the flash, it was terribly over-exposed. And by the time I got the flash up, my daughter was already in the next room. So anyway, I learned that while I love how pictures taken with an SLR or a semi-manual camera like this one look, I don't have the time, the patience, or kids who sit still long enough to get pictures of that quality. So I'll be looking for a point and shoot that lets me catch those cute moments. I liked the camera's abilities, but it just didn't work for how I needed it.

I love this camera. I love the zoom, I love the macro, and I love the ISO feature. The pictures are sharp as can be and the options are endless for my needs. It's easy to use once reading the manual. Cropping is a breeze on zoombrowser which came with it. I have discovered more of a love for photography then ever. I have taken the most beautiful macro pics of my kids that I have ever seen. Nature pics are going to be all over this house in frames!! This is definitely the best camera I have ever used for my family. I have had other canon power shots, but this is the best one. I have rechargeable batteries so that is not a problem. I buy the 2GB cards and they hold tons of pics. If I can find the link on here I will include some macro flower and sea glass shots.

I purchased this camera to be used when I didn't want to lug around my digital SLR. I needed something with more features than a point and shoot and did not want to pay a very high price. After looking at several cameras, this one offered the most features and bang for the money for its compact size.
The picture quality is excellent. The controls are very intuitive and easy to use. The menus are also easy to use. I love the aperture priority, shutter priority and manual control features of this camera. These give you a lot of creative control in such a compact machine. The 10X zoom lens and optical stabilization really makes this camera an excellent purchase.
Ergonomics and build quality are also very good. The hand grip on the camera is a little slippery, but the camera is very easy to shoot using one hand.
The only major negative comment I have regarding the PowerShot SX100 are the slow flash recycle times. This could be a problem for anyone who takes a lot of flash shots.

this is a great camera! The high point of this camera is how good it is in photographing indoors and in low light, even outside in near darkness. The battery lasts a long time, the handling of it is easy, has a stabilizer and optional flash to use and many multi-functions to choose from. I have not learned all there is about it, but so far, I can say for the money this is a great semi-pro camera! I took a photo of my husband walking on the treadmill in the evening, indoors, low light and it was crystal clear and you could see the sweat on his skin, also the television was captured perfectly. Also, I love the exactness of the color. I have another camera that does not capture the same color, this one is great with capturing the exact color and look. Enjoy! Its painless to operate.

I upgraded to this camera from my older Powershot A510 (stolen). It's better in every way. MUCH faster, good battery life, awesome pictures, unbelievable zoom, and image stabilization (I got soooo many fuzzy pictures with the A510 -- not anymore!). It's definitely not compact (fills up my entire jeans pocket), but it takes infinitely better pictures than compact cameras. The software has also gotten much better, and you can finally play videos in ZoomBrowser. It's still not very good at extreme macro shots or low light conditions; but I'm not a pro photographer either, so I rarely mess with the settings. BTW, GREAT bang for the buck.
Hope this helps you gather information!

I couldn't decide between the canon powershot sx100 or the fuji finepix s700.
The last couple of cameras we had were just basic point and shoot,and I wanted a camera that had more features and optical zoom.
Ended up going with the canon, I've had it for about a month now, and haven't had any problems with it so far.
The batteries that came with it were regular alkaline and didn't last long at all. Rechargeable batteries last longer,and you can use them over and over. I found it's best to take an extra set along if you plan to go anywhere.
The Memory card that comes with it holds anywhere from 3 to 52 pictures depending on the number of recording pixels. Taking video seems to use a lot of space up. So it could use a bigger memory card than the one that it comes with, but I haven't found it necessary.
The zoom seems to be good, but this is my first camera with this much zoom and settings. It does get more grainy/blurry once you get into the digital zoom (past 10x optical.)
Occasionally it hasn't done the best in low light, but is usually fixed by raising the flash or changing the settings. Some of the best photos I've taken are in the manual setting.
I've also used it to get photos of backyard birds and it sure beats the point and shooters I've used even with binoculars hooked to them.
Overall its a great camera.

We bought this camera for our teenage son for Christmas and it stopped working in early February. My son took care of the camera - kept it in a camera bag as well. He was protective with it because it was his first good digital camera. Unfortunately when you turn on the camera now you automatically get a lens error and you can't use it at all. We have tried Canon's suggestions to fix it, but nothing has worked. I guess we are going to have to send it to Canon and I will be upset if we have to pay to repair it. In fact I will never buy Canon again. I have heard by many that Kodak is very reliable, but my experiences with digital have really left me unsure. My husband and I have only bought two - one was a Nikon and it quit working after about six months - it just stopped turning on - we tried changing batteries and all. We have had no luck with digital! We have a Nikon N80 SLR (film camera) and that has been the most reliable camera we have had.

I really like this camera. We had an Olmpus C750 that we loved, but it had been dropped one too many times and the autofocus wouldn't work anymore. Given that our baby and picture subjects (sports) were almost always moving, this was a feature we couldn't live without. The software is adequate...slow to start up, but suitable for beginner and mid range needs. If you want to do some editing, find a 3rd party app, the software that comes with it doesn't get it done. It does have a very nice red-eye elimination feature when you are looking at your pictures on the screen, and the screen itself is quite large.
The downside is that what other folks have said about it going through batteries is VERY accurate, especially when using the flash quite a bit. And for some reason, it goes through rechargeables about 4 times as fast as standard ni-cads. For an environmental person who wants to use rechargeables as much as possible, this is a difficult thing. Basically it has forced me to pick up another set of AA rechargeables, along with keeping an emergency pair of standard non-rechargeable in the bag.
I did not get the full kit, as we already had a camera bag and a tripod. I do recommend the screen cover.

Bought this because all of the rave reviews I read here about the Canon SX100IS!
First the good things:
The few pictures that I took looked great and the zoom was wonderful. IS worked like a charm even after I shook the camera on purpose to TRY and create a blurry picture, but couldn't!
Now the reasons I returned it:
I hated the "wheel" on the back of the camera. While trying to spin it I would always end up clicking it and end-up somewhere else, total design flaw!
I hated the feel of it. It felt like cheap plastic and did not feel sturdy in my hands. Always felt like it was slipping out!
But the reason I returned it was because of the battery life, or lack there of. I used the batteries that came with it all of about 45 minutes. I then replaced them with re-chargable ones that came with the "accessory pack" ,that I bought from Amazon, and got about 5-6 minutes with those. Put the other set in and only got 2-3 minutes with those! Went and bought a brand new pair of lithium AA's and only got 20-25 minutes with those.
WHAT GOOD IS A CAMERA IF YOU CAN'T TAKE PICTURES!!!
Unacceptable. I returned to Amazon awaiting my refund!
Bottom Line: This camera felt cheap and not sturdy in my hands. Battery life was a joke and not acceptable.

I purcased the Canon SX100IS camera because of it's price, quality and ease of use. I couldn't be more pleased! It's easy to use, yet has many more complicated settings for user who want them. The pictures are great! The only minor drawback is the flash recharge time, which is a small consequence because of all of the positives. After reading reviews, I purchased a 2GB memory card, which allows up to 800 pictures. Yesterday I downloaded 500 pictures with ease. I use Google Picasa, which allows for many picture color, red-eye, darkness adjustments and, because of that, I've been able to save many photos I would have otherwise deleted. I also purchased 4 rechargeable batteries with charger and I use 2 and have 2 recharged batteries on hand at all times. I have never missed a photo because of low batteries. In the end I've been more than pleased with purchase and would do it again, without a second thought. Buy it! You'll love it!

I purchased this camera about a month ago prior to going on a short trip abroad. So far, I've been very happy with it after about 100+ shots. The 10x zoom is just right to get the close-ups. Those who haven't had a camera with image stabilization should know that it can't fix all flaws - I had a very hard time getting a good shot of a statue from a boat that was vibrating from the engine. I haven't tried it in really bright sunlight yet to see how it fares without the optical viewfinder, which was one of my only concerns about this model. The lag between flash photos that others have commented on is definitely noticeable, but only mildly annoying to me as I don't take too many low light shots. Battery life seems to be good - I got about 150 or so shots on the batteries that came with it, and that includes a lot of time reviewing shots and having the camera on and ready waiting for shots. The only complaint I really have at this point is that the card and batteries go in the same door and when you open it to remove the card, the batteries often fall out. This may be more of an issue for me than others as I never connect the camera directly to my PC, preferring to use a card reader.

Though I'd otherwise rave about this wonderful camera, I'm on my third version in about 4 years and am sick of replacing it. Each time, after about 4 GB of photo-taking (cumulative total -- many downloads in between), the camera tells me to "Replace the Batteries." I replace them and it will take one or two more photos before it tells me to again replace the batteries. There seems to be some sort of mechanical "wearing out" that occurs. I use the camera for vacations, school events, etc. I am not a professional photographer. So I don't think I use it excessively. Obviously I love it (and am used to the controls), or I'd not have purchased two more after my first one went bad (in exactly the same way). But this latest camera lasted me less than 6 months, so I'm finished with Canon.

A couple months ago my cheap digital camera took a dive out of my pocket and nearly got swallowed by a gutter in Times Square. Sadly, it wasn't repairable, so I turned to this camera. I just bought it yesterday, graduating from a Kodak EasyShare C643, which is a huge jump to this beauty.
The zoom still makes my jaw drop with how clear it is and how precise. Being bought solely for a music festival in May, I'm confident it's quality of pictures will be equal to or maybe even better than the press pictures from the very front of the enormous crowd. Pictures come out beautiful and crisp, and it really can make a professional photographer out of anyone- even if its your first time picking up a camera. Yes, its a little pricey, but well worth it. I highly recommend it.
Other people might complain about the battery life, but its really not as bad as it sounds- just lower the settings on all you can (and make the resolution slightly smaller unless you want to print these photos into a poster or something) and you'll be fine for awhile.

I presently own a Cannon PowerSot A540 that I use at my Home Inspection Business taking about 50 to 70 Different types of pictures everyday and this Camera has been Beyond Great. The New SX100IS that I Purchased is Truley a step up from the A540 ,it is extremely easy to use , I can Zoom in like I was using high powered Binioculars and then just tap on the "snap-botton' and it auto-focuses , the screen view is crystal clear and I am SUPER Pleased !!! If you forget to pop-up the flash it simply displays that at the top of the screen so you can choose........It is Light ,Comfortable ,and has the same Quality Construction of my A540 which has fallen off a roof several times and just keeps working everyday......I just needed more Zoom than 4X and this 10X is like a Telescope ,Man-o-Man !!!!!!!

For my first digital camera I wanted something that I could take pictures with on the fly as well as something with settings that I could play with. I know the basics about changing shutter speeds and other settings of that nature, but this is the first camera with which I've actually been able to manipulate to see what the effects are. Thus far I have been extremely satisfied with the results that I have seen in my images and am blown away with the clarity of a really good shot -which I seem to be able to get many of. As of 250+ shots, I am pleased.
