Smooth transition, solid construction. Use it on my Sony nex 3n. Works with all my minolta vintage lenses (45mm md f2, 35mm mc f2.8, 135mm mc f3.5)

Have owned Canon cameras for a very long time since the 2mpix S100. This is probably one of their best so far. My recent crop of Canon Cameras include the 60D, G10, t1i, rebel xt, and a few point and shoot Canons.The 60D is versatile in the way of interchange-able L lenses, Remote Flash units and so on, this G15 beats an SLR when it comes to portability and weight during travel. While it's does not have a Canon L lens, this camera produces pictures that rival my 60D with it's L Lens in lots of scenario, except in extreme cases eg. in extreme light cases when you can actually use a different lens for that scene.I bought it to be used during my overseas business travels (when I cannot be lugging around a SLRs all the time). This camera is special if you use it as is. Don't go adding flash units, lens adapters and etc. Instead, when you need to use the built in flash for example, move closer to the subject. When you want the best of it's f1.8 lens in dark scenes zoom out and walk up closer. Very good up to iso 800, and very good videos in 1080p 24.The G10 has more megapixels, but the G15 is clearly superior in detail quality in the pictures. And while the G10 has more shots per charge, the G15 is much lighter and more petite, and hence more pocket-able. I know there are many people lamenting the loss of articulating LCD, which my 60D has. But, without that, Canon made the G15 thinner than the G12, and I definitely prefer petite in this camera over the articulating LCD. I thought I would miss the ISO dial in the G10, but I haven't so far, and the G15 has consistently produced better quality shots over the G10.Canon made the G15 their "premium" non DSLR series over their point and shoots, and the versatility and quality of this camera is clearly shows. Don't hesitate buying one if you want one. It's worth every penny!

Originally I bought this as a replacement for a faulty SX200is (one of the first hi-zoom cameras around). I wasn't expecting much from it, with a 14Mp sensor, I was expecting more noise in the pictures at lower ISO levels than before. A function of squeezing more pixels onto the same size piece of silicon. However I have been pleasantly surprised with the photo quality, and some of the included features. I won't go into huge detail, except to say that in everday use it is superb, and very easy to use at a moments notice for those instant photos you might otherwise miss.
Some pros:- superb 'tracking' feature allowing you to track a subject in focus even when they move about the photo frame; light and quick to start up; large 3" display on the rear; a flash with quite a good range and that doesn't pop up constantly (you have to open it up when wanted); 720p movie recording via a dedicated button on the camera back; the addition of several fun modes including a 'miniature effect' function; a quick acting 12x zoom, and if you reduce the pixel count (e.g. down to 7Mp) that zooms further without loss of quality; standard AA battery usage, not dedicated Lithium-ion, means replacements are easy to find if you're caught out, though this is balanced out by poor battery life on alkalines they are still good for emergency usage.
Some cons:- poor battery life with standard alkaline batteries means you really have to use hi-capacity NiMh rechargables to get a good life span from the camera between changes (I reccommend a minimum 2100mAhr at least); no view finder means you have to rely on the large rear panel (but on the up side it's easy to view in most conditions so far), the loss of the 'panorama stitch assist' function is a big downer for me as I used that one an awful lot.
P.S. Search on eBay for this camera, and if you don't mind a refurbished item direct from Canon (with a full 12mth warranty) you'll pay less than £50 for this excellent little camera. I did.

I am strictly a point and shoot camera type of person. I've owned Kodak, Sony Cybershot, Canon S95 and this is the best ever and I highly recommend it. My boyfriend owns a DLSR camera, and even he is impressed with the quality of this little camera. I am absolutely blown away with the Stars feature. I had it in my backyard, set it to the Stars function, click, waited 20 minutes and I captured a beautiful star trail right in my own backyard. I have friends asking me about this camera and they are sold when I tell them how good it is. My most favorite feature is the wifi. It is so easy to connect and you can upload & share pictures instantly. I travel alot, and I can easily take this with me anywhere. If you are debating between the S95 or S120? The S95 had a few minor flaws in my opinion. The S120 got it right.I need to warn everyone though that I had a little mishap before I got this camera. Amazon sent me the right box, but WRONG camera!! As soon as I emailed Amazon about it, they shipped me the correct camera.

It's been great for taking under water picture. Not that it's possible to make it smaller (given the tight fit) but I found it a little bulky. First time I ever had my bag checked at the airport was when this was in my carry-on.

I debated saving for an entry level DSLR camera or going for a camera like this. I'm someone who has considered getting into photography as a hobby & wanted the right camera that's a step up from a point & shoot. What sold me on this camera over a DSLR is portability. A camera is useless if it stays in the closet. For its size it's very light weight. It would be far more practical for travel pics than a bigger camera.I was a bridesmaid recently & was able to slip this camera into my pocket (apparently bridesmaids dresses are sometimes made with pockets now!) for the wedding reception. I can't imagine lugging around a DSLR there without looking ridiculous. I was able to get some really great photos before the wedding when all the bridesmaids & bride were getting ready & at the reception. Most of the pictures were on auto mode as I wanted to not miss any moments & also to take pics quickly to get out of the way of the paid wedding photographers. Even in auto mode the pictures looked great.If you do not need a camera to take a lot of posed or still pictures, I would definitely recommend this camera over a DSLR for portability, & the picture quality is great.

I bought the older brother: Canon SX170 IS last week. However, I found this one, the Canon SX160 IS, at a local retailer, on closeout. Price I won't disclose but I could not walk away from it.The only minor differences between the 160 and the 170 is that the 160 uses 2 AA batteries and the 170 uses a rechargeable battery. Also, the flash on the 170 is a manual lift while the 160 has a push button release.The 160 is a little slimmer but not by much. The selector turn knob is a little different on the 160 vs. the 170.Either model, well worth the cost. In fact, I would say that they are not charging enough for the 160 or the 170 because the quality, ease of use, and the quality of the pictures are just great.I plan to have mine modified to full spectrum for ghost hunting. Hope this does not change the review. Just realize that the factory warranty is voided but I am okay with that.

I've had this camera for about a month. I couldn't wait to get it, then I couldn't figure out what to do with it. It is such a departure from any camera I've ever used, it took a while to find a way to enjoy using it.First, the biggest thing is the form factor. How to hold it? I found that for your typical snapshot, opening the screen 45 degrees made for the best combination of holding the camera and seeing the shot. I also found that the ring shutter release is really awkward, especially if you wanted to use the touchscreen to select your focus point. It's much easier, especially with the screen at a slight angle, to touch where you want the focus and snap the shot at the same time. There is a setting to enable the touch to shoot option.Secondly, the next big thing is the WiFi feature. I've used Eye-Fi cards for years, and expected the same experience. Not so. Not nearly as automatic, but still pretty simple once you figure it out. First, press the WiFi button on the camera. It will start looking for an access point on your network, or, what I recommend, a smartphone. Next, on your phone, change the WiFi network to the name display on the LCD of the camera. Now you can select photographs on the camera and transfer them to an impressive number of websites.With these two revelations (for me), I've gone from "why bother" to "hey, this is kinda cool".Finally, the image quality is extremely good, much better than most P&S cameras. The Depth of Field is even decent using the method I mentioned. I posted an image here so you can see what I'm talking about.So, if you're feeling a little adventuresome, this is a really well built camera that takes great pictures. The only drawback I see is if you are out with friends and want a stranger to take a picture for you.

I consider the Canon G15 to be one of the finest small cameras that I have ever used. It outclasses other point and shoots in many respects.It is solidly built and handles like a precison instrument. I am impressed by the full creative controls on the G15 and the ease of accessing them. It of course has RAW and RAW plus JPEG capability; I would not have purchased it otherwise. The camera fills the hand nicely. It has a serviceable viewfinder, is of a discreet size, and has a rapid enough response for candid street or journalistic photography. The image stabilization is very effective. I am grateful for the exposure compensation dial, but wish that the ISO dial of earlier versions could somehow have been retained. I am pleased with the ease of shutter and aperture adjustment in the creative modes. The Auto Mode is excellent; however, it continues to share the vagaries of the auto white balance of other cameras.I would have rated it more highly except for what I see as two engineering tradeoffs, probably driven by marketing it as a "Powershot" (i.e. a point and shoot class camera). Given today's technology, Canon's engineers should have been able to install a somewhat larger sensor, thus allowing the camera to take greater advantage of the magnificent f/1.8 lens; I would happily have paid the penalty of dropping to a 4x zoom. Secondly, the utility of the camera is limited by the lack of a rotatable LCD; the additional minimal weight and bulk would have been worth it to me.Finally, there are two nit-pics which relate to getting the camera into action: the flash hot shoe sometimes snags when withdrawing it from its pouch (no insert is available from Canon) and the power button is not sufficiently recessed to prevent turning the camera on accidentally.On the whole, the G 15 represents a set of clever and knowledgeable tradeoffs in re-engineering its icon small camera. Considering of how Canon has met the challenges, I would rate it four-and-a-half stars. I would expect a G 16 - if and when - to attain five stars.

It's a little outdated, but for the design and price, it's a decent starter/general use camera if you refuse to own a smartphone like me. Can't find anything in this price range with a forward-flipping display screen over 8mp.

The zoom on this camera is pretty good. I'm what you might call an advanced amateur... I T.A.ed a couple photography courses back in college, but I'm no pro. I wanted a little knockaround P&S to keep in my bag when I wasn't carrying my DSLR. Turns out that's not what I wanted at all... at least not this one. It's a bit too noisy for me. If you work only in the bright outdoors, you'll probably like this camera just fine. I imagine it would be great at family snapshots at a theme park, but it's really kind of awful in low-light conditions. If you're spoiled by APS-C-sized sensors like myself, it's just too hard to go back to a dinky little fingernail-sized sensor.I ended up giving this one to my Mom (her old 8mp Canon sub-compact P&S was acting up) and getting myself an EOS-M. A mirrorless, interchangeable lens camera is nowhere near as portable as this guy, but at least I still smile when I see the images.

I love the photo quality when I can get it perfect without my query (moving objects) blurring. Any photographer will tell you that that's a problem when you only get one moment to shoot something. If that's your deal then this camera isn't for you. But my still photo's come out perfect. The image quality is great. The video resolution is even greater. The zoom is superb. If there is something I can't see with the naked eye, sure enough the zoom on this camera will catch it; however, you need a really steady hand or tripod for anything above 16x. All in all, this is a great camera packed with a lot of power, and 16 mp that isn't overexaggerated. Wow! This isn't a DSLR, but I like it anyways.

You might as well use an old sock, to be honest. This comes with a lanyard and carabiner that you're supposed to use to attach the camera to a loop inside the sock, but the carabiner is metal so would scratch the camera to bits if you put it inside the sock. I threw my lanyard away. So, without the lanyard, there is nothing to attach the camera to the sock, and the sock has no other fastening to stop the camera from falling out. Thus, there is no security, so it's only useful for protecting the camera when it's on the shelf but not when travelling.

I can't believe that I'm back again reviewing a Canon powershot - but I am. I saw this one come out, with no intention of buying it, but there was a good price on Amazon, cashback from Canon, and a relative needing a camera, so I couldn't resist passing the old one on and buying the SX150is. It's available in silver and red as options, but I stuck to black.
First of all this is a superzoom camera, which means it has a big range of focal lengths. This gives a body which is slightly bigger than most pocket-sized cameras, but the benefit is the ability to zoom in - and boy can you zoom in! It has a 12x optical zoom and to indicate what that means; I was standing so my shed was filling about a quarter of the screen, and then zoomed in fully and the fairly small shed window filled the screen on the optical zoom, without resorting to the digital zoom. It is the equivalent of 28 mm to 336 mm, for a 35mm camera, which is as much as you are ever likely to want.
Power is provided by AA batteries, which doesn't suit everyone, but it really works for me. We have dozens of high capacity rechargeables, and they are long-lasting, with charged spares always to hand. The original alkalines didn't do very well though, so try to use rechargeables. If you are going to carry them charged for a long time it's also worth getting the long-lasting ones.
The sensor has been upgraded to 14.1 megapixels, from 12 before, which helps in low light, and is all anyone is ever likely to need for everyday family use.
Settings are simple to use, with lots of manual options. I tend to ignore the easy mode and go straight to auto option, which has 31 settings for the camera to choose from. Then you can move to SCN mode, which I generally use for scenery and people. Then there are the programme modes, and finally manual settings.
There are various filter modes, including a miniature scene mode, toy camera mode and colour swap. I rarely use them, but they're useful for a bit of fun. Speaking of fun smart shutter, smile detection takes a photo when it detects someone smiling. It may seem a little gimmicky, but it does actually work, and has improved photos of people - maybe because they know they're stuck there until they smile!
Photo quality is very good, probably an advance on the last one. Because of the large sensor you can blow the photos up quite large, and retain the detail. Canon reckons you can print to A2. I rarely print photos, but like to use the highest quality setting nevertheless. A 4gb memory card holds around 1000 photos at the highest resolution. Even zoomed in the detail is good, with the image stabilisation working to reduce shake. Colours are good, very realistic, although I have sometimes detected a slight yellowish cast indoors.
I have tried the video, and am quite happy with it, but it isn't why I bought the camera, and I'm unlikely to use it very often.
It's worth giving the software a quick shout as well. I like zoombrowser to upload new photos to my computer with very little fuss. Plug in the camera, switch it on and off you go.
So all-in-all this quality of camera, with this range of zoom, with an overwhelming range of manual settings, but very good photos out-of-the box in auto mode, has to be worth 5 stars.
Edit 27-12-11 I've added two photos of Leith Hall to the product description. They are intended to show the range of the zoom, rather than being held up as good photos. They were both taken from the same place, one at the wide-angle setting, and the other fully zoomed in, using the optical zoom only. As you can see it really does have a huge range.

I bought my G15 some 6 months ago…..about 3 months after I bought it the front 'cover' (that closes after one shuts off the camera- protecting front element) stopped working properly and because of this the camera stopped working…I sent camera in for warranty repair and Canon techs said 'sand was found in lens' and therefore they wouldn't fix it under warranty….so they said originally I needed to send them $200 repair but went down to $155.00…..I have been a professional photographer for over 30 years….this, in my opinion, was a ruse to get $$$ - personally I think the 'cover' to the front element is a bad design…and I read someone else here w/a warranty problem w/Canon….this is too bad because I have bought their products for 40 years going back to the '60's…the other gent who had a problem w/Canon was smarter than I and apparently went to AMAZON for a replacement…I should have done that months ago….mgjht try this….bad, bad CANON…..I will try them again and perhaps notify the Attorney General of what Canon seems to be doing to avoid warranty repairs…..MD in Santa Fe, NM

It's an ok camera. Takes decent pictures but could just use my Iphone. Same quality and always on me. I thought it would be handy to use with the ap and remote. Turns out this camera does not support the remote that the ap has to offer. For the money I wouldn't suggest this camera. The book that comes with it doesn't really tell you much refers you to an electronic book that you can find at the Canon web site. Doesn't take multiple shots even though it's supposedly set to do so. Very disappointed in the abilities of this camera and the lack of information supplied with it. I was hoping for something smaller that I could carry more easily than my T4i

I have had many different cameras. The last one I had was pretty old, but it was wonderful, it was an older model Canon. It was much more bulky and heavier than this one.It did take me a while to get used to the functions and such, but definitely love this camera. The only thing I really didn't like about it, you have to manually pop the flash up. On all my other cameras they have always just been stationary and off set from the top side. All in all, definitely worth the price! Super quick shipping and excellent packaging as well. The camera would not have gotten damaged in transit unless something super heavy smashed it!
