Anyway, my daughter has been giving me some coaching tips but I've found this camera to be easy to use and it takes great pictures and video. I got this as a package deal with the cables, case, rechargeable batteries, a tiny tripod (which is worthless) and a large SD card. I've had a lot of people say I got a great deal, so keep searching on Amazon until you find it. I found the package deal totally by accident when I lost my data and had to "re-search" cameras. It was buried on page 2 or 3 of the search results.
It's great having rechargeable batteries (4 in all) but they do seem to go through a charge fast.
All of my pics have come out nice, even the ones I took in the bowling alley. The camera has a nice heft and fits into my hand well. I can't wait to learn how to use even more of the features.
Note: This silver Canon SX100IS is the same as the black model, just with a different housing.

-- Debbie Lee Wesselmann
I can take good micro shots of bugs and plants, take short (under three minute) videos and other creative features. I bought rechargable batteries for this to cut down on regular batteries.
But why the price hike to almost $300? I bought this same camera here for $99.95! What's up with this, Amazon? This is a year-old camera, the price should be dropping, not rising!
It is simply outstanding. The camera is full featured and offers all of the controls that the DSLR's have when it comes to aperture and shutter speed settings and manual controls. But the real test is how it shoots in full auto, because that is when the camera has to make critical decisions.
This camera succeeds wildly. We were at a Christmas party and I had my Canon 30D DSLR in full manual mode with a 550EXII flash mounted and my dad had his new Canon Powershot SX10IS. When we got home we compared pictures and he fared very well against my shots.
The flash is surprisingly strong, but doesn't wash out close shots. It can light up a big room from far away. The focus is good and fast. The colors are OUTSTANDING and the 20x zoom and 28mm wide angle are features that offer the best of both worlds when it comes to handling a variety of situations.
On top of that, the Image Stabilization works very well and makes the 20x zoom usable.
Plus, my dad has now retired his old video camera as well since you can get image stabilized, 20x zoomable, 640x480 stereo video at the press of a button. This camera is really the best featured and easy to use camera out there and at a price that is unbeatable. Add an inexpensive 8Gb memory card and a set of four rechargable AA batteries and you are in at under $400 for everything you need.
I highly recommend this camera as the best ALL-AROUND camera you can buy right now when you consider price, features, size and image quality.
Overall I am very happy with this camera and I think that you will be as well. Also the black colering is very cool.
I used all the various automatic modes like indoor, kids, pets, landscape etc with good results, but auto and P mode seem to do the job in most situations. The video results are very good, even though they are only 20 fps, but this only effects fast action like a sports event, and even then is not really noticeable. I made a video of a flag football game that came out fine. I tested all the modes up to 8 megapixel. The 3M fine mode is my default for normal situations.
The only downside of this camera is the battery life. For some reason, the camera shows the AA batteries are low even though they are only slightly discharged. As a result you have to often change the batteries, even though the batteries you take out still measure well into the green charged range on a battery tester. So do not throw away batteries after you take them out of this canon. They are still fine for any other device. Canon needs to fix this problem.
Otherwise great camera at a great price for both photo and video. Get an 8GB SDHC card and a bunch of AA batteries and you will be good to go.
I am a serious amateur photographer and story teller who relies on images for Power Points, newsletters, and photos to display. This camera has been wonderful and reliable. I average about 500 pictures with one set of four AA batteries. The tilt viewing screen makes this camera perfect for 'discrete' photo's in markets, for casual portraits where people play and work, of architecture, and even of self portraits. In markets and on streets I often find myself tilting the screen and shooting from waist level. I also sometimes find that I can hold it over my head, and the heads of others, see and capture the image again by the tilt of the screen.
This camera is a little larger than I would prefer. It does not easily go into a jacket pocket. I find that I most often carry it in a 'messenger bag' or on my belt under a jacket, sometimes in a jacket pocket. But to be so feature rich, it is worth this extra bulk to me. If I did not want the option of manual controls and the other features I would go for a smaller camera and enjoy the smaller size.
When this camera is replaced I will look for another Canon, I will buy it from Amazon, look for a swivel screen, AA battery powered, and the newer stabilization technology.
I researched a lot before buying this camera and I don't regret it a bit. AND, I am glad I bought it when I did! I paid $89 and it's now selling for $149.
OK it's only a sock - so why is it so difficult to get right?
1. Karabiner clip - totally stupid, remove it or you'll scratch your precious Ixus.
2. Lanyard also has a metal clip and although it didn't have any sharp edges I removed it in order to be able to attach the cord to the sock once I'd binned the cheap and nasty Karabiner.
3. More like a chunky woolly pullover than a sock - and so far as my Ixus goes a baggy one at that! Has a tendency to slip out.
I really wanted this to work because a sock is exactly what a pocket point and shoot needs to protect it whilst keeping it ready to use. Unfortunately this one isn't right at all!
The macro setting of the SX100 IS is superb and easy to use. The picture quality caused more "Wow, I can't believe how good they are." Some of my most exciting pictures have been in the macro setting.
The camera is small enough to fit in my pants pocket albeit with a noticable bulge. I have been carrying it this way for the past month even though I have a carrying case for it. I wanted a camera with a decent zoom lens to carry with me on most days. It works but it is definitely not as portable as the Canon Powershsot SD 1000. I don't mind the increased size because I love the zoom. Thus far the unprotected LCD screen has not been damaged in my pocket. The screen itself is good size, easily cleaned and scratch resistant. The screen in no way reproduces the fine quality of the pictures as seen on a computer or when printed out. The screen has fewer pixels than the SD 1000 screen. This is not a problem for me. There is no viewfinder but the screen works reasonably well for me in bright sunlight.
The camera has a solid feel which I like and is relatively easy to hold steady for zoom shots. The battery and SD card cover at first felt a bit fragile but on repeated use it seems to work just fine.
The movie function is average at best. The low resolution movie setting takes poor quality movie that are unacceptable to me. At the high resolution setting the movies are o.k. You can zoom during a movie but it goes out of focus. If I want a close up movie shot, I zoom first in the camera mode and then switch to the movie mode and shot the movie. The results are o.k. My Canon S2 1S zooms while shooting a movie which
I like.
I have not used the manual controls so I can't comment on them. I have use the programed shooting modes for evening and inside shooting etc and they work just fine.
This is a great camera albeit not perfect. For me, the picture quality is it's greatest asset. It is a pleasure to give it a 5 star rating.
1) The image stabilization features are not explained clearly. No matter what setting I have it on, I don't see to get the stabilization I expect. Granted, this may be my fault but a better explanation in the manual would be appreciated.
2) The lens converter that I have (that was recommended) is not listed in the camera software - choice-wise. That to me is a bit confusing. LA-DC58G was the converter bought.
3) The image quality is not exceptional. At the highest quality setting, I usually end up boosting the quality through a separate image editing program.
I really love Canon cameras. I just thought that this camera would elevate my picture taking experience a bit further. I think it might be time now to explore the "G" series or higher end PowerShots in general.

Pros:
1. Fantastic zoom
2. Great image stabilization
3. Auto mode works well
4. Lots of scene features (fireworks, sunset, etc.)
5. Very impressed with the stereo sound when recording video.
6. I like that you can mute the camera..good for taking pictures of birds or other animals that may get scared by the camera's "natural" noises.
Cons:
1. Although the video recording lets you zoom in and out, I found that once I uploaded it to my PC the outcome of the video was very "jumpy". I will try again with less zooming.
2. The instructions, although clear, go on forever. Thus I purchased the "Canon Powershot SX10 IS CheatSheet" from Amazon. I'm happily waiting for it to help me start using the cool features faster than if I read through the entire manual.
I did do my research via Cameralabs.com where they have live video showing you how the camera works.
Overall...5 stars!! I'm excited to take it on a trip to the Grand Canyon in a few weeks.
We have had the camera for about a month and are totally pleased with the pictures and the features. It is easy to use and all of the settings are intuitive, once you go through the manual.
The LCD screen is bright; we were concerned about not having a viewfinder but this has not been a problem. The face recognition feature is a great touch and works as described. We have been exceptionally pleased with the image quality.
It does a better than average job with red-eye reduction. The megazoom feature is flat-out amazing. We were able to take clear pictures at a ballgame with the 40X digital zoom feature without a tripod.
This camera has exceeded our expectations. This will be a great companion to our Nikon SLR. An excellent product.
Since this model only uses 2 AA batteries, I find I do have to change them more often but I just keep extra rechargeable ones in the camera pouch. I like the lighter weight, the many features, and the available colors (yes, it's a Girl thing, I admit it!).
A note about recovery speed for taking photos: I found that this has to do more with the brand of the memory card I'm using. I missed a number of opportunities for some interesting shots on trip I may not be able to take again. I thought the batteries were running out of juice. However, swapping the batteries out with fresh ones didn't make a difference BUT changing out the SD card did! I was using three different brands -- don't get the cheapest ones unless the write speeds are decent.
The 2.5" LCD is bright and crisp. The only issue with the LCD is the 'noise' in low light conditions or when using the digital zoom. The noise is filtered out of the picture, but is still visible in the LCD.
The red-eye reduction feature is buried in the menu system, which makes it difficult to easily turn on or off, but the function can be assigned to the print button for one-touch access. The red-eye reduction feature works extremely well compared to older generation cameras. A lamp is used prior to exposure to reduce red-eye and any red-eye you may get is removed during processing.
The various shooting modes are great when used as intended. The action shot (high speed shutter) was available on older Canon models, but is missing on this model. I have yet to blur an action shot, but I've only taken action shots in bright sunlight. If you need a faster shutter in low light conditions, it can be manually adjusted in the Tv mode. Once again, plenty of features, and plenty of manual adjustments for the creative photographer.
If you intend on shooting 8MP photos, invest in a good SDHC Class 4 or better memory card. The SDHC cards have faster transfer rates than standard SD cards. The class rating on SDHC cards indicates the minimum write speed in MB/Sec. A class 4 SDHC card will write an 8MP photo to memory in slightly less than 1 second. A faster write means you're ready for the next shot sooner.
This camera will seem bulky at first, especially compared to the sexier, slimmer models that are so popular, but after experiencing the zoom, picture quality, and all the functionality, there is no way to be disappointed. A lot of consumers want the camera that fits in your coin pocket, but there is only so much you can get with those cameras.
The SX100 has 8 megapixels, which is just as much as anyone will ever need unless you're looking to blow up your photos onto 5ft by 8ft canvases.
The user-controls are so easy to use, whether you're shooting in AUTO, or any of the more manual modes. For those who revel in photography, but are too poor to afford an SLR (and deal with the sheer size) will be very satisfied. You can adjust everything from flash-strength, white balance, shutter speed, aperture, to focal-length and color-filters. The scroll wheel which resembles that of an iPod makes changing settings on the camera fast and easy.
Flash recharge time is great to make for faster shooting, and most of all, the zoom (10x) gets you as close as you see with the naked eye. I love taking this camera to sporting events, vacations, the beach/river, snowboarding, really anywhere. But I highly recommend a case for this camera, as it doesn't fit in your pocket very easily, but I knew that when I was buying it.

As for the camera itself, I found that it did not like the rechargeable batteries that I had. Thus, I had to order Canon rechargeable batteries. They work well. To give it credit, the manual clearly says that the camera works with alkaline batteries and Canon rechargeable batteries.
The SD memory card that came with the camera is too small for practical purposes. Be prepared to buy a larger card.
I have had the camera less than a month, so I am still learning about it. The default settings work well, but a little tweaking might make things better.
One thing that surprised me is the focusing method. This camera defaults to face detect. The camera must have had fun finding a face in my flowers.:)
The ability to view the pictures on a TV is nice.
All in all , it has been a fantastic camera for the last 2 yrs of my use and still going well.
Only issue I have found is when you shoot in night-mode , the images get blured and photo objects get mixed with each other.
Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom
Style and color is great. Am very happy/satisfied
with this product. MC
Image stabilization is really great, and with the manual ISO setting up to 1600, you can get really sharp pictures at a distance without using a flash - great for taking shots of the kids at school functions when they're a mile away on a stage.
The video quality is excellent as well, and at 30 fps rivals the quality of my digital video camcorder (also a Canon). Be sure to get a high capacity, high speed SD card as well. I purchased with the camera a SanDisk Extreme III Class 6 8GB card and have been impressed with its performance; with this card I can take over 2000 photos at the highest resolution setting and/or 68 minutes of video.
I also like the fact that the camera uses AA batteries instead of its own proprietary battery. I'm using Rayovac Hybrid rechargeables, and I've only had to change the batteries once in almost 6 months, and that includes a trip to Florida, plus Christmas and birthday pictures.
Other advantages: it runs on 4 AA batteries that seem to last forever which means no battery pack (or expensive lithium batteries) to run low just as a herd of antelope shows up. Very easy to download pics into computer. It's not tiny but it isn't heavy or awkward. Only dowside, the lens cover is easy to lose (I tied a thread to it so it's now attached to the strap). Price is very reasonable. Took a few years but I feel I made the right choice.
Compared to other brands that offer much of the same (except Movie mode, which few seem to have) I'd recommend this Canon SX10.
Great manual controls for Aperture and Shutter speed make it a camera for Pros, while the Auto mode is wonderful for learning photographers. The zoom is great and the image stabilisation that the camera offers at the maximum zoom level (Even at 10x optical and 4x digital i.e 40x combined zoom) is awesome. The photos in low light during my recent trip to a hill station were good in the Night mode with lots of saturation of natural colours.
Face detection is also a good feature with the camera able to detect faces very very easily (I don't know how does it work, but it really works :-))
The Digital Zoom, unlike others cameras I have used, does not distort the image to a very large extent, thanks to the high resolution and the safety zoom features. I can upload photos to depict this.(I don't know how to do this in Amazon :-))
The battery life seemed ok only , as I was able to shoot around 200 shots with my Sony NiMH(2500mAH) bateries with flash. But the batteries are brand new and should gain more strength with a couple of charge-discharge cycles. But a spare set of batteries is always helpful.
I had a Nikon 5600 prior to this so wanted a middle size camera with extended zoom and manual controls, and glad to find SX 110 fit all my needs.
A thing that is missing is a Sports mode, which is a feature to shoot fast moving objects. I had this in my Nikon 5600, but could not yet find it on my SX110. Possibly the Manual controls for Aperture and Shutters could make this up for me. Still in the learning phase :-)
What I love: easy auto mode, good manual controls, decent (low-resolution) videos. 8.0 MP resolution, good image stabilization. After the 3x zoom of the S80, 10x zoom is a delight; I get many pix I couldn't have gotten with the S80.
Minor quibbles: the function wheel on the top of the camera is frequently rotated by taking the camera out of the case. So I have to check each time that I'm in the same mode I left it in; I have ended up with bad photos when I thought I was in Auto mode and turned out not to be.
The batteries can fall out when you open the battery door to change the sd card. But this doesn't bother me; it's intuitive to hold the camera upside down when opening the door on the bottom. In that position, the batteries stay put as they should.
Altogether, I find this camera a delight. Every time I use it I'm reminded how much I like it. When the time comes for a new camera, I will certainly buy one of the successor models (the very similar Canon Powershot SX110IS 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver) or the 20x Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom.
I've owned many cameras in my life. For my current needs of quick, good snapshots and occassional professional portraits and action shots, this camera is the best I've ever owned.
