Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX160 IS

I've been very happy with my camera so far. It has a distinct improvement over my Kodak EasyShare in how it handles lighting (there's a specific setting for indoors, which works great). It powers up quickly, takes crisp photos, has good color quality, and includes a lot of specialized features for what is essentially a point-and-shoot.

The only drawback is that the navigation system isn't always intuitive, which can create problems for people who only need (or can only use) a simple design, but unfamiliarity can be overcome with practice. And since it allows them to include so many specialized shooting modes, I think it's a fair trade.

Purchased this to replace another Canon Powershot which was stolen. We've been very impressed with this camera. Excellent images, good stability control, plenty of detail allowing for cropping of pictures for scrapbooking. Highly recommend this camera!

la compré para cubrir un ciclo de conciertos y conferencias. estuve parado al lado de fotógrafos con equipos reflex profesionales, y mis fotografías de 8 MP estuvieron a la altura...! por supuesto hay que dominar el modo MANUAL especialmente en lo relativo a velocidad de obturación y apertura de diafragma, combinando estos aspectos con el ASA o ISO como se denomina aquí. Realmente estoy satisfecho con esta compra, y aunque tienen razón las revisiones que dicen que a ISO 1600 las fotos se ven muy granuladas, esto es algo común en la mayorái de los equipos. Para una cámara que no llega a 300 dólares, no se le puede exigir más... el ZOOM es el atractivo principal.. y los videos a 640-480 a 30 FPS quedan geniales.. 100% recomendada!!!

LOVE this camera! I'd never even held a digital camera in my hand before purchasing the 590IS in April '08 for a May Mediterranean cruise. This wonderful piece of technology produced amazing shots, many postcard-perfect. There are so many settings that I have yet to learn about but in the meantime, the "Auto" setting works just fine for me in any photo situation. No disappointments there. Great price, great product.

a very good camera, great quality of photos and best of all extremely simple to use. Quick delivery an no problems.

I own this camera for just a couple days only and here are some of my initial thoughts.
Picture quality is excellent but there seems to be a problem with high ISO settings. The interface is cool but the 10 sec time lag also sucks.
So if you want to have a camera that takes pics one after another speedily
then this is not for you.
More reviews after more use :)

So far I like this camera. Pretty easy to use if you read the manual. I haven't used it much, but so far so good.

This camera takes good, sharp pictures for a digital point and shoot. I'll just add a caveat that may affect some purchasers the same way it did for us: the focus/red eye light is bright orange. I mainly take pictures of my now 11-month old, and she squints and turns away from the light almost every time, which means I now have a really hard time getting good face-forward pictures of her. Pictures I can take without the flash turn out great. Some settings don't use the orange light, but then this affects the quality of the picture. This may not be much trouble to a lot of people, but for us it's made the camera significantly less useful. In addition, sometimes the delay is really long and the shot is gone by that time. The "children and pets" feature sometimes helps with that situation, but not always. We used a PowerShot A60 from '03 until it conked (RIP) and did not have these problems. If your main subject is a small child or children, I cannot recommend this camera. Otherwise, it's a good one for the money.

I researched cameras for several months before deciding on this camera. It is an excellent camera. It is the smallest camera with a 10X optical zoom and the image stabelization works great, even with the digital zoom beyond 10X. I had purchased this camera last year the first week it came out and month ago we left it at a banquet by accident and never recovered it. I upated my research and still chose this camera again 8 months later.

Bought this item from Amazon Feb 25 2008...toured Canada and it was working great...got home and then about 3 weeks ago it wouldn't focus anymore...I brought it to a cannon service center and they told me it would cost 180++ usd to repair....will check now if I can have it replaced...

extremely disappointed (june 25, 2008)

good quality, everything it said it would be, etc. but i went to staples the day after it arrived, and newer model was 20 dollars less. so i think it was overpriced.

When we first purchased our A620, we were amazed at the quality of the shots made on a relatively inexpensive camera. It's easy to use, has many features more expensive Canon's use, and has a fantastic zoom capability.

Then, after about 3 weeks of use, the batteries included with the camera caused the case to burn, damaging the lid. Naturally, we were really concerned about this and called Canon. Even though the batteries were not made by Canon, they were extremely responsive and within a week they had another camera on the way.

All we can say is not only is the camera an EXCELLENT buy, so too is the quality of service. The followups. The interaction. And the deep committment to our satisfaction is testiment to the way Canon does business.

We're a customer for life. And the camera gives us all the features we need to produce great quality photos for the casual outings we do.

If you're looking for a high-speed, high-response camera a Canon Rebel or other SLR camera provides, this one is not for you. BUT, if you are looking for similar image quality at a rock-bottom price, this one is a GO!

Pros: small enough for one hand, good picture quality especially for the indoors if you choose the indoor mode, big LCD display give me better idea whether to save or delete a picture.

Cons: you need to wait for longer time than you expect between two shots for a canon product. However, you can choose the triple shots in one time.

The camera is all I expected and works pretty much as I understand it would work. Two main features I needed was a view finder and operation on AA batteries. The price was good. Would have liked to have been offered an extended warranty but received no warranty information other than a reference to a web site. The browser is slower than my Nikon but suits my purpose.

This camera quite possibly takes the best pictures I have ever seen for a digital non-slr camera. The photo quality is outstanding even at full zoom. The slight hindrance is that when using the flash you have to wait a little while before you can take another picture. But realistically most images do not need flash, and sometimes look better without, so all and all this is an excellent camera - and it can be fully manual. If you want a compact camera with excellent photo quality than hands down this camera beats it's competition!

This is a great camera. Beginners can use the auto focus mode or you can learn how to use all the different features. Either way it takes great pictures. It fits nicely in my hand and the viewfinder comes in handy when it's too sunny to use the monitor. It's a plus to have the user guide completely in English (there's an additional one in Spanish). I'm looking forward to improving my photography skills.

It's unfortunate that with a name like Canon, you expect a quality camera. That's why you shell out the money for an item that you think Canon will stand behind. Unfortunately, this is not the case.

I bought this camera to use in graduate school (industrial design). I needed it to do research for my thesis. I figured between that, all the product photographs, and the need good portfolio pieces, spending the 500.00 on an 8mp camera would be well worth the investment. I was wrong.

About a month after I bought the camera, it started to malfunction. The lens got stuck and would not come out. Neither would it go all the way back in, so the lens cover would not close (not only putting the lens in danger, but draining the battery as well.) It was still under warranty, so I sent it to the Canon Service Center in Elk Grove Village, Illinois. It was received, and I was informed that my camera would be returned in 7-10 business days. That was almost a month and a half ago.

I have put my thesis research on hold because I do not have the proper camera for it. Every time I call the service center, I am told that the "parts are on back order". Evidently they don't know when these shipments are due in their center, so they don't know when I will have my camera back. The best part is, when I called two weeks ago, they offered me a "brand new" S215. The told me it was a great deal and that I should accept the offer because "they NEVER do THAT" (meaning they never offer a new camera for one in repair.) I pointed out that the S215 was only 5mp, had a smaller screen, and cost nearly 300.00 less than MY camera. I also reminded her that MY camera was brand new when it broke and I had to send it in.

Today I was told that there was no information on my camera, the backordered parts, or when they could send my camera back. The woman on the phone asked me why I didn't accept the S215 that was offered, and when I explained and asked for a camera the same model as mine, she said they were not authorized to do that. I told her that I was going to spend the time originally set aside for my thesis research to write letters to both the service center and Canon Corporate Headquarters, and she suddenly had a technician she could consult, and my camera would be back to me by the end of the week. I won't hold my breath, but a copy of this review will be sent to Canon.

Nice camera, especially for the price. It could do a little better capturing movement without being blurry, but it has done a fine job for me and is pretty easy to operate.

I bought this on Feb 15 of this year, got it about a week later. I chose to wait it out. I am very glad I chose this camera. It takes amazing pictures! I was a newbie to the world of digital cameras and was reading up on them when I came across the Canon PowerShot SX100. I am very glad I found it! There are so many things to work with on this camera, I am still learning it. I had not heard anything bad about the camera and decided to go for it. By far, this is the best purchase I have made all year. If you are on the fence with buying this I say go for it, you will not be sorry. :)

Purchased this camera for my 7-yr-old granddaughter and she was up and shooting with minimal instruction. Wonderful screen, easy to use, small enough to carry just about anywhere, but very good quality photos despite its conservative price.

Good value for money. Delivers the usual quality of Canon with bit more zoom than equivalent cameras. Adequate good use of the batties (AA) when taking multiple pictures with the flash.

I bought this for myself to take more and better pictures of all Nothh American Big Game Animals after they have been measured and entered into the Boone & Crockett Club, Pope & Young Club, Longhunters Club, Norht American Shed Hunters Club.In taking a few practice shots, the pictures turned out very good. I'm Happy!!!!!!!

Fourth digital camera I've owned and one of the best. I'm not into a lot of gadgetry so I haven't used all the features but for a quick point and shoot it's a nice piece. Upgraded to 2GB SD memory card and that gives me plenty of space for over 500 photos even at the highest resolution.

This little guy has a little of all the features in demand plus a few. It's size is so small that it will fit in a pocket. The intructions are easy to read and apply. Haven't used all the features yet but the ones I have used are great. Shudder time has small delay but also can be set for needs. I would recommend this over the straight camera or digital movie. Unless you are a professional or anal you can get and create wonderful results. For filming you will need a large storage card (8mg) so that you get more time to film. The conversion of time from stills to movie is huge as far as storage space. I recommend you get an extra battery so you are not caught short at the wrong time.
