Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX160 IS

I bought this cemra for a friend, looking for a point and shot (he's not familiar with apertures, ISOs or any other photography stuff) easy to use but with more picture quality than a mere HP.

Since I already owned a Canon Powershot A630 which has proven a very reliable piece of equipment, I suggested hom the same or the next generation for this camera. Unfortunately the budget was not enough and I had to go through an extensive research so he could have a good camera for not more than USD250.

This is what I looked for:
8+ Megapixels
10X optical zoom
Aperture and shutter priority
Buit-in flash.
Video recording
Ease of use (this should come first as primary requirement)
Light weight
low battery consuption (I didn't want him compplainig for battery life)
At least 1/2.5 sensor size. I've proven that picture quality loos can be easily noticed with smaller sensors.

This camera meets or exceeds most of my requirements for a not-so-low budget equipment. It's fast, reliable and the picture quality is very good for a non professional user.

I strongly reccomend the Canon PowerShot SX100IS is you don't have USD350 for your home use camera.

Shipping---absolutely the worst!!! I ordered this item (from Amazon) on 6-19-09 and to date (6-30-09) I have still have NOT received the camera!!! This is totally unacceptable!!

Really like this camera. Suits my needs for keeping up with my children. Recommend for those who just want to "point and shoot."

I agree with all the great stuff said about this camera. I got it for the zoom, even though the whole camera is a tad bigger than most.

I noticed after having it a few days though, it has developed a CLUNK as I tip it forward and back. I can almost feel it behind the scroll wheel. It's not the batteries or card, so I'm wondering if it was there the whole time? or if something came loose on the insides.

Does anyone else have this issue? By the way, it's about 3 times louder than the side to side click you get from the mechanism that knows which way to turn the photo on the screen while reviewing.

This is the best camera I have ever owned! The pictures are crystal clear, and I never get a fuzzy picture. I have two small children and I can set the camera to the kids and pets setting and get great quick shots of them. We just took it to the snow and got great shots of the kids, and great video as well! I would recommend this camera to anyone and everyone! The screen on the back is the perfect size to view photos, and buy rechargeable digital camera batteries (you can find them at target with the charger for under $20), and they will last about 300-400 pictures.

I bought this camera [[ASIN:B0011ZCDKS Canon PowerShot A590IS 8MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom] for Christmas and it has all the functions I was looking for. The shutter speed is a little slow compared to some cameras in the same price range but after some adjusting in the menu, it can be compensated for. The menu interface is very user friendly after a quick glance through of the manual (which in all honesty does look like a small dictionary and reads like one too.) With a decent size memory card (2Gb and up) the capture video time was greatly increased. Great price, shipping was fast and price was very fair. I have already recommended this product to a few friends and we will be using it anywhere, anytime!

I purchased this camera to replace a old powershot SD110 (3.2 mp). The image quality on the SD110 is amazingly better than what I found with the A1000IS. I returned the A1000IS about 30 minutes after it arrived. Please be aware of this cameras limitations before you buy it!

This camera is fantastic. It has a lot of great features and takes great pictures. It's amazing how far away you can be and still get a close up picture. Definitely great for any kind of animal photography and sports photography. While you can us this camera on "auto", it definitely isn't a camera for someone who doesn't want to read the manual. Amazon was really great to deal with for purchasing this camera and had a really great price.

I bought this camera last year and I love it! the picture quality is excellent. the video quality is excellent. It's just great!

I've had a chance to take this camera for a spin and I like what I've seen. The 10x optical zoom is wonderful (compared to the 3x on my other camera.) The colors are vibrant so there's little need to tune up my photos. The large screen is a treat to use as well. There are several features I still need to play with but overall I feel this camera is worth the money! :)

I'm a late convert to the digital age over film, but this camera makes me wonder why I waited. It takes phenomenal photos, and is easy to use. 999 photos (with a larger media card than provided). How much would that equivalent in film cost? And then add in the cost of developing, and you've already paid for this camera. I have a media card device so I just pop the media card out of the camera and download directly. SO cool! Then import the photos into any type of photo-shopping program, crop it (if need be) and print. Your PC is your darkroom! In 8 mega-pixel glory, no less. And you cannot beat the price. I highly recommend this camera to the novice and the pro who wants a lightweight camera to carry around with them.

This product is good enough if you are looking for a not too complicated camera for beginners.

I am giving this as gifts to my cousins and they love it.

It is an amazing camera. We had a Nikon before, and the quickness of this camera is amazing compared to our old camera. It does everything we need to do, and we look forward to playing with it some more, to see its full potential.

The camera arrived on time and did everything we wanted in an excellent manner. We used it for our 50th anniversary and were very pleased.

We've had this camera for about a month now and thus far it's met or exceeded expectations. I find the controls fairly straight forward and think the camera takes good pictures. I like the size and feel of this camera in my hand. Overall a very good purchase.

I purchased this Camera through Amazon for my 11 year old son a month ago.
The lighting on the LCD screen is great for both pictures and video. The camera can take up to a maximum 4MB SD Card which is fine for my son to make short videos and edit them on a computer. It's also nice having the option of using the LCD screen or the "old school" view finder to take the picture. I would have given this a 5 star rating if the outer casing was made of metal instead of plastic. I hope it will hold up for an 11 year old boy.
All in all my son and I are both very happy with it and it is very easy for him to use and thumb his way through the internal software.

This petite Canon camera case fits my Canon PowerShot A590-IS perfectly. It is a good quality padded canvas case and comes with a choice of shoulder strap, hand strap or velcro belt loop - I use the neat shoulder strap. The front zippered pocket takes two AA batteries with room to spare and inside the lid is a small net pouch for a spare SD card. My A590 slips in the case easily; there's no having to force it in. I'm very pleased with this purchase and particularly pleased that this PowerShot camera case is a perfect match to my PowerShot camera.

I have the previous model, the A-570, but with IS also (image stabilization). It means the ability to shoot 2-3 shutter speeds slower (a photo shot at 1/15th will usually look just as sharp as a shutter speed of 1/120, a huge factor in composition). Canon does the best IS in the business.

One other wonderful thing about these cameras is that people have figured out how to hack the firmware. Don't worry, it won't break anything, and the new firmware sits on the SD card; remove the card, and the camera reverts back to factory stock. Just Google "canon a580 firmware."

I use the new firmware to tell the camera to automatically take three photos in a sequence, with one 2 stops down, one on the money, and one 2 stops up. Using commonly-available software, you get some remarkable results--just like the uber-expensive Canon and Nikon bodies deliver.

nice camera does everything i wanted so far meets expectations. a little big, heavy and expensive compared to others, but you get the 20x zoom and excellent pictures. i am not a serious photographer, but i like the ability to get the shot i want and this does it for me. the video is adequate, nice camera

I bought this camera because I wanted a small digital that would allow me to take great photo's without requiring a loan to buy the camera. I have had had a 2000 35mm Cannon EOS which has been an excellent camera but I wanted something more compact which would allow me to have a camera available without lugging around a heavy, large case. The PowerShot A590IS has been the perfect choice for my needs. I took it out for the first time last week to really take some photo's and I got many beautiful shots of my niece at sunset. I haven't had the chance to get really creative with it, right now I'm just trying to learn the basics of the camera and that has been an easy and enjoyable task.

GREAT Product for the price. I did A LOT of comparative shopping prior to purchase. I was hesitant to purchase a camera that did not have automatic flash. I've come to like this feature too. Pictures are clear. There is no delay between photos. I liked this purchase so much, I bought 2 more for gifts! The recepients like them too!

We lost our really high end camera and were at a loss to replace it for a reasonable price. This camera fit the bill pricewise, and it has fulfilled more than we had hoped. The size is excellent, the viewscreen is perfect, the quality of pictures is spectacular, the zoom is very handy, it lasts quite a while on one set of batteries though when they start getting low you may lose the date. All in all I would say this is the best camera to get for a daily use camera for family shots and other fun things.

I got this camera for my 12 y/o daughter as her first camera and she loves it. It is easy to use and takes great pictures. We liked it so well, we ordered one in red for our other daughter.

If you are looking for a very good, simple camera this is it. We have used Canon for years and have yet to be disappointed.

I got this as a gift and it broke quickly. I never got around to returning it, I'm not quite sure if or when I can. The person who I gave this camera to ended up getting a better camera from someone who was replacing theirs.
