Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX160 IS

I love the string leash strap. I was always losing the cover because I would put it in a safe place and could not find the safe place. Three cheers for the string leash strap.

The Canon PowerShot SX160 IS is a great little camera. Easy to use and quality photos. I bought two for my granddaughters and they love them.

While mobile phones now do much of what this camera can do, you may find it hard to carry this as an additional point & shoot, it's still great as a stand-alone product and I would recommend it for this kind of everyday purpose. It takes reasonably well-lit, focused pictures in regular and macro mode, and does so with colors that feel natural.

very happy and pleased with the charger. very quick service and happy with my purchase of the charger for my canon

I have had all Cannon cameras. This is the best one yet. Good picture quality. Better flash. 16 times optical in a small camera. I still like regular batteries. This camera will meet my needs for quite some time.

I bought to replace the lens cap I lost because it didn't have the leash strap. With this lens cap I don't have to worry about loosing it because the leash strap keeps it attached to the camera.

I have been using this camera for about a month now. It takes great pictures with little thought. I wanted a camera I did not have to constantly adjust or fiddle with the buttons and menu. After the initial setup I have to do very little to get a great picture. Love its light weight and portability. I would buy this camera again. Love it.

The lens cap looks good and fits fine on our canon SX10IS. Couldn't ask for any more than that. It arrived promptly from the vendor.

I have bought this product few years back (not from amazon) and it seem to be working pretty well and after a year of use, it had problems with red eye reduction not working properly, noise in the images - specially in night. And off late the display has gone upside down and the display screen has developed a thumb size patch casuing irritation while reviewing images.

I then talk to Cannon to repair it and they have come back stating that while it is repareable - they are unable to locate the parts in the country.

In all a very bad experience with Canon.

This festive season, i will be looking for non-canon cameras.

I've been using this camera for over 5 years and it still works. I know this is a bit outdated now, but canon actually makes quality products.

Expeditious service, camera in great shape, however, descriptions said came same as packaged when new. There was one connection cord from the camera to the computer missing, that's why not rated 5 star.
This is my third camera like this one. It's the best model I've ever used!

Great little camera. I bought this camera to replace mine (same model) after I dropped it one too many times. I take a lot of pictures when I go diving and already had the underwater case for this. This is an older camera, and you can find newer ones with higher resolutions, but underwater cases are not cheap, so I looked specifically for this model. I have taken thousands of pictures with it, and have always been happy with the results. I actually have printed several of these pictures and displayed in my house and office. No, they're not professional quality, but that is because you really need more light when taking pictures this deep and I didn't get the additional strobes that are available. But they are quite nice. The focus is good, it's only the lighting that is off. I also like to take closeup pictures of flowers, butterflies, etc. and again, the quality is impressive. So are any of the "regular" pictures I take around town and when on vacation. It's a 7.1 megapixel camera, but you can't just go by the numbers. To me, it's still better than many other cameras with a higher megapixel. The main thing is that, when I zoom in on my pictures, the quality is still quite good. Even when I have zoomed to get the picture. By the way, I bought two of these.

It does a good job even though it isn't the newest gadget on the block. I prefer it to the newer ones. If you get a chance to get one of these, go for it. You won't be disappointed in the performance.

This camer has proven itself to be an excellent camera for the novice camera bug such as myself. Controls are many, but intuitive which makes life easier. The camera comes with a good manual that clearly explains how to work the camera in simplest terms. The best part is that the anti-shake (for people with very shakey hands like me) works very well giving me a nice sharp picture 99% of the time when zoomed fully out and does a pretty decent job of giving a stable picture when the lens is zoomed in.

You bet! Better lens, better processor, better low-light performance. I enjoyed using the G10, and that fun-factor is still a winner for the G15. I tried the G X1, but I failed to bond with that camera. I loved the image quality, but the G15 is just as sharp, and simpler to use. A good fit.

A good travel/holiday camera, certainly no pocket camera but for the price £84 + vat from Amazon a bargain.
Good pictures in Auto Mode and I liked the fact that there is a manual feature for those of us who like a little control.
I know about the criticism the camera received about the use of AA battery's, but the upside is, they are universally available.

The Canon SX1-IS is a replacement for an Olympus C-3020 (3.2MP) camera that still works fine, but I wanted more in a camera. This new category, the mega-zoom point and shoots make for great vacation cameras. This particular one costs a bit more, but has HD 1080P (16x9) video recording and wow does it look great. Standard definition (4x3) video is available in several resolutions.

When it comes to still photos, I've learned to like the 16x9 format. It uses fewer megapixels for that image (think of a square, then pull a rectangle out of it... a bit left on top and bottom). There is a shading option which is nice to compose 4x6 if you plan to print to those dimensions.

The camera feels, looks and sounds like an DSLR. But it's an electronic viewfinder.... very important a buyer knows that. I'm one of those people who prefer to look through the viewfinder instead of putting the camera at arms length to compose on the rear LCD. Mostly I use that for photo confirmation, playback or setting menus. It does come in handy for low or weird angle situations. Easy to use in daylight conditions.

I have taken photos recently I would never have been able to with my old Olympus, super telephoto nature shots, wide angles, night shots, action shots and videos. Nice flash photography as well, but limited... it has a hot shoe for external flash systems.

It's a lot to learn... it's quality built.... it's fun.... I'm happy with my purchase.

UPDATE: March 5, 2010
I've learned a few things about this camera over time. Only recently did I use the HD1080p recording for shooting a band performance in a bar. Lot's of harsh stage lights... that whole thing. I found it necessary to use Manual Focus (while rolling HD) to keep the lens from breathing focus. The incredible range of the zoom allowed me to get close ups of the singers, guitars, wide shots of the stage, reaction shots of audience if there was enough light, overall it was a fun experience. The footage seems really good considering this is a point and shoot. (Sound recorded was just a scratch track really). Burning through 8GB SD-HC cards made me realize how much data is recorded in 1080p on this camera. I use a modified left-hand grip flash bracket to hold the camera. This frees up the right hand to make adjustments and lets the operator hold camera much more steady. Some shots of the stage looked like a tripod was used. The Image Stabilizer lens on this camera is pretty amazing. Image grain could be considered a problem, but it's the trade off for convenience and price for this camera. Yes, it would be nice to shoot everything in 80 ASA setting, but you can't always do that. The grainy look this camera sometimes delivers is not objectionable to me and there are adjustments that can be used in iPhoto or other photo programs to work with images. The lens range, equal to 28-560mm on a 35mm camera, is the best feature on this camera. The CMOS chip allows for 4fps still shots and that same chip can provide Standard Def and High Def video capture. Still enjoying my purchase and still learning.

Update: a year later... March 8th, 2011
Just to let readers know... I still really like this camera. Just last week, I learned another function of Review, (checking specific areas of a picture for accurate focus by pressing a few buttons). I never thought a point and shoot/mega zoom could involve such a huge learning curve. Recently, I did my best to help a friends figure out their new Leica V-Lux2 camera. (A Leica badged Panasonic FZ100). For me, the transition from my Canon to the Leica was fairly easy. For my friends, it was not. Knowing the Leica is nearly $900 and has more functions and mega pixels... it still comes down to a camera that is not easily learned in a few hours, a few days or a few weeks. I appreciate the Canon SX1IS after using the Leica V-Lux2. The Canon viewfinder is easier on the eyes, the viewing screen is wider and easier to manipulate, the buttons are in better positions and the use of AA batteries instead of expensive Leica batteries. ( I think the Panasonic badged camera is fine for the money )

BTW... I became frustrated with N.M.H. recharge batteries. I've gone to Lithium 8X Energizer batteries, that are lighter and very long lasting. The cost of batteries is minimal to the cost of lost photos. I gave up on the whole recharge thing... much happier now.

Now that Apple iPhoto is capable of working with RAW image files. I've started shooting with L+RAW. A Jpeg image and RAW image are recorded, taking up more memory, but the ability to work with the photo afterwords in iPhoto is worth it.

All arrived as described, working great. Would have given it 5 if the flash was not so cheap, first it takes ages to charge the flash and opens only manually, and of course the use of AA batteries-come on we're in 21st century, but then I guess one has to also consider the price, all in all good camera, and especially for macro shots-they are amazing. thx

got this camera 2 years ago and it's an ok camera but there's a weird red laser line on the left side screen of my camera when you turn it on. i thought it was just the camera screen but when i checked my photos and videos that red laser like line was still an everyone of my pictures and videos. still the picture and video shots are not bad though.

beautiful action pictures, portable and very strong body.I m not a professional obviously, but i do take plenty of pictures and I have had many cameras, this one has been the best one for me thus far.

Love this camera. It takes professional looking photos even with an amateur taking the photos. I have taken most of my photos on the auto setting, but I am really looking forward to learning how to take photos in the other settings. I am seriously contemplating taking a class to get the most out of this camera.

I haven't taken many pictures with this yet. It is replacing one almost identical to it. Word of warning. Seawater and this camera do not mix!

I bought this camera a few years ago for under $200, but decided it was too slow. I loved everything else about it though. And believe me, I've tried a lot of cameras. I'm not a pro, just a hobbyist who wants great pictures out of her point and shoot. Now when I see the price I could cry. I was looking for a camera I could just take along instead of my Canon DSLR and remembered how much I had loved this one. Quite surprised when I saw the price hike. No, I won't pay this much for it, but getting it at the lower price was most definitely a GREAT deal! Would I pay this much for an 8mp, 10X Zoom? No, but if this camera ever goes back down in price I will be very tempted to buy it.

Had this camara for twelve months now, very easy to use had some good results in different conditions
little bit bigger then a lot of camaras but werth it for the results
