Canon digital cameras are a bit silplistic. I got one of these for the live feature. That allows you to see what manual controls are doing when you adjust the color and brightness. It should be helpful for being a bit creative which I like to do. It only uses two AA batteries so it a bit thinner than some cameras with long lenses. It is a bit heavier than a regular point and shoot. All in all a nice camera.

If you want an easy-to-use, better quality camera, this is the one. It will take great pictures quickly and clearly, as well as HD video. I like the fact that it takes AA batteries. I never have to worry about having the battery charged up and can purchase extra batteries almost anywhere. It's best to use Energizer Advanced or Ultimate lithium AA batteries too. They will last a long time, unlike regular alkaline cells.

I love the quality and speed of DSLR cameras, but grew weary of lugging around all the equipment and wanting to buy new lenses and accessories all the time. So I decided to try this camera and see how things went. Well, I've very happy. No it's not the same exact quality but still very good! And if you know what you are doing and can set aperture you can still get pretty great portrait shots with the blurred background. Also I can shoot in RAW with this camera and squeak out all the details necessary for great landscapes. One thing I'm particularly impressed with is the auto settings. The camera can analyze a scene and decide the best settings pretty quickly. Even when I took a picture of my toddler, the camera recognized the young child and did a burst of 3 images without me telling it to. I wish I set it to RAW in auto mode. Another minor thing that I love about it is the control dial on the back. Most cameras (even DSLR) have buttons and you have to press several times for control, but this dial is wonderful and makes getting around in the menu and settings and focal points a dream. To summarize, I am once again inspired to do photography! Thanks to this camera.

I've had this camera now for a month or so and it's had quite a bit of use but I have to say I'm rather disappointed with it and I can only assume that those users who have given it 4 or 5 stars do not intend to use it for anything much more than taking snap shots of the kids. To be honest I think I'm probably being a bit generous giving it 3 stars.
Firstly, Canon make a lot of the fact that it's got a good video function. This may well be true but if I'd wanted a video camera I'd have bought one. I want a still camera which can take the occasional video, not the other way round.
The camera supposedly allows you to take photo's in very poor light by using very high ISO values (up to obout 3200) and I suppose you might just about get a print the size of a postage stamp if you used it. If reasonable sized prints are all that is required ISO 800 is just about usable but the picture on my PC monitor becomes rather noisy at these speeds even after spending quite a time working with Photoshop on the image. ISO 200-400 is just about as high as I want to go and even 400 is a bit dodgy.
My last camera was a Fuji Finepix S7000 which eventually succumbed after many years of use. Like all digital cameras it had a viewing screen but, in bright light, this became almost unusable so I used the viewfinder instead. The image was absolutely first class and was far easier to use that the viewingf screen. On this camera the viewfinder is absolutely dreadful and is almost unusable. The swiveling viewing screen compensates for this to some extent but it is still very difficult to use in bright conditons.
The image stabilisation works very well and the zoom, or at least the optical zoom is excellent, but if you use the digital zoom the picture quality rapidly tails off.
I was amazed to find that a £400 camera didn't have a cable release screw. Instead they provide a radio controlled gadget which releases the shutter. I had a lot of trouble working out how this device worked as the manual-all 304 pages of it-which I had to print out myself -wasn't any too clear. I eventually tried contacting Canon, both by email and by phone. It was painfully clear THAT NONE OF THE PEOPLE I SPOKE TO HAD THE SLIGHTEST KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE CAMERA. I eventually solved the problem myself and none of their suggestions came even close to solving the question I'd asked.
Anyway, I eventually got the wireless control working but the sensor is on the front of the camera. This may well be OK if all you want it to take photo's of yourself, but I like photographing wildlife and just about the last thing you want to do is move your hand around when you're doing that. They could easily have put a sensor on the back as well but Canon don't seem to have given much thought to what a customer might want to use a complex camera like this for.
There are all sorts of picture taking programs on the camera but I really can't see much difference between most of them as far as picture taking is concerned. One thing I'm really annoyed about is the fact that there is no "Bulb" setting, i'e. I can't hold the shutter open for a long time exposure, I have to rely on the automatic shutter. On reflection though, even if they had such a setting, it would be very difficult to use without a cable release.
Another problem is the lack of a filter thread on the lens. It is possible to buy an attachment to fit on the front of the lens (for about £20) but not from Canon. The camera comes equipped with a rather flimsy lens hood, this fits in the same place as the filter adaptor so you can't use a filter and the lens hood. One problem I've found with the lens hood is the fact that when it's being used it's very easy to twist and it's not always easy to soo the focussing screen well enough to pick this up. The result, if you're not very careful, is the corners chopped off your photos when using wide angle. Incidentally, I ordered a filter holder from a company calle digitalmediastore ages ago and I'm still waiting. I got one fron an Ebay seller in a couple of days.
All in all, this camera is very expensive for what you get from it. It's rather complicated and has a lot of different knobs and dials but the handbook is on a CD, meaning that you either have to take a lap-top everywhere with you ar print it out as I did. As I said above, the resulting booklet runs to 304 pages and even printing on both sides of the paper it's about an inch thick and used the best part of a cartridge of ink. I have been taking photographs now for something like 55 years, and Canon have always been up there amongst the best camera makers. If this camera is anything to go by, they seem to have been taken over by the cost cutting brigade who tend to see customers as little more than money making machines.

I bought this camera in March 2009 as a gift for my daughter because she wanted to start taking videos of my seven year-old granddaughter. I spent hours researching and I was so grateful for the excellent customer reviews here at Amazon. They told me everything I needed to know and more. I bought the camera, a Transcend 4 GB Class 6 SDHC Flash Memory Card TS4GSDHC6E, a Transcend 4 GB SDHC Class 6 Flash Memory Card with Card Reader TS4GSDHC6-S5W, and a Duracell Mobile Charger with 2AA PreCharged Rechargeable Nimh Batteries CEF23DX2 to get her started. Later I bought her a few more 4-packs of Duracell rechargeables. Almost four years later, everything is still working perfectly together. In the intervening years, this camera has gathered hundreds more excellent reviews, and it deserves them. I'm not qualified to talk about all its technical features and others have done that so well already, but I'm glad to share my daughter's experience with it. It's so user-friendly that not only my daughter, but also my little granddaughter, quickly figured out how to use all its features. It takes beautiful pictures and excellent little videos that are so much fun to watch. It gets dragged everywhere, sometimes without even a case, it takes all kinds of hard use and hard knocks, and it still works perfectly. Thanks to the faithful Amazon reviewers who helped me choose this camera, and thanks to Amazon for selling such great products. By the way, I know I shouldn't boast, but I can't help it - I paid only $79 (with free shipping too).

I was pleasantly surprised when I received this camera. It takes excellent pictures as well as great movie shots. It has a bunch of editing features. Too many to list. Very nice and clear screen. A comfortable size that is easy to pocket! All in all, a great little camera that does a lot for a little. I think you too would be pleased overall with this camera!

The Cannon PowerShot SX160 performed to all of my expectations. Low light photos without flash are not real good. Unfortunately the camera does not come with a printed manual to take with you. The camera controls are easy to understand and use.

A good size and weight for her to handle with a decent zoom. Takes great pictures. I use it myself when I don't want to carry my big camera. It would have received 5 stars, but there is no way to attach a neck/shoulder strap which would have made it a perfect camera for her.

This was for my husband. In reality becasue of the new iPhones, he has hardly used it. We loaned out for awhile but this week he used it on his trip out west to visit family. I know he likes it..he said pictures came out great but it is so convenient to use the phone I don't know how much he'll use it.

I should have bought this camera years ago. It is easy to operate and takes great pictures. It does take a steady hand when taking pictures using the zoom, but the image stabilization does help a lot. Looking forward to using it more often.

Bought this camera as a starter for my daughter. We so far like the camera. I was upset with Amazon with the purchase suggestion of the memory card and case. I bought them as a package in trust. When she opened the gift. The camera does not fit in the case. Can't return as she tore the packaging, just have to take it as a lesson learned. Just want to warn others before they buy the same thing.

I bought this after moving to my new house.. I somehow lost both of my other point and shoots (well.. they are still packed somewhere!!) and I was going to France! So I searched online and found this beauty.. it's pretty and shoots amazingly.. mixed reviews.. but I like Canon and it was cheaper and improved over my older point and shoots that I've bought over the past few years.. amazing how the prices keep dropping! This was a great purchase.. used it in France - Paris and Provence... worked great... the super saturated setting was amazing in Provence and just in general.. the wider angle lens was a plus.. the 16x optical zoom was great.. and it fit in my purse!!!! I ended up buying a neck strap as suggested by another reviewer.. OP/TECH USA Bin/Op Strap - QD (Wine) by optech.. listed in amazon.. just a small neoprene strap.. helped alot, kept it around my neck most of the time... and it was easy to hide under my scarf and jacket if you didn't want to look like a total tourist all the time! Early spring in Paris was quite cold this year.. Provence was wonderful! :) I have a Canon SLR - just didn't want to bring it along this trip as my boyfriend had his... comparatively my photos were almost the same as his! Of course he has his telephoto lens.. but he was impressed by my shots too! :)

I got this camera because it has 16x optical zoom and uses AA batteries.It worked well on a trip to Africa for getting good shots of the animals - including birds in trees where the zoom was essential. I got photos as good as people who had larger digital SLR cameras.Sometimes a bit slow writing to SD card when maximally zoomed in - even a faster SD card did not help in that regard.Good all-around camera. Because of the zoom capability, it is heavier and larger than some point-and-shoot models.

I've had a great experience with the camera. It has held up to much use. The cord covers that others have commented about are fragile, but if you are careful, they won't break. If a child used them, they might be broken, but the camera would still be usable. It has been compatible with several computers & printers. I'm not a techy, so probably don't make use of all the functions.
