Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX160 IS

All the new cameras are 7 to 10 meg --- too big to send on the web. For 8 z 10's this is perfect --- no nobody uses 8 x 10's anyway. The smaller pictures are perfect as well --- perfect for my level of shooting. Has all the required features and the new cards are dirt cheap; 1 gb for less than $20. Use it all the time.

One of the best cameras i've ever had. i love to take some photos and i love when you can see all the details in the pic. this camera sure do the job and for it price, it's a still.

Also, it's Canon, it can be bad!!

Hope i halped you to decide.

I'm dentist and i'm using the camera for little details and for my personal entertainment, and i'm really surprise, the fotos are nice and i recomende it 100%! There is an better information in spanish:

Mi experiencia ha sido muy buena con esta cámara, ya que soy Odontólogo y la compre para llevar un registro de los tratamientos con mis pacientes y las fotos intrabucales salen bastante nitidas con la función macro y el zoom óptico de 4x, eso es lo más importante para esos pequeños detalles.

- Es bastante rápida entre toma y toma con el flash y más aún sin flash.

- Tiene capacidad de tomar videos, esta función la pude aprovechar más colocandole la tarjeta de memoria de 1gb, así como la capacidad de tomas más fotos.

- Añade efectos a las imágenes fijas con la función MIS COLORES.

- Puede grabar memos de sonido para las fotos.

- Es posible la edición de peliculas.

- En la toma: configura automáticamente los ajustes de disparo para adaptarlos a las condiciones concretas.

- Posee un sensor de orientación inteligente, detectando la orientación de la cámara automáticamente.

- Posee una velocidad ISO alta, evitando los efectos de sacudidas o que los sujetos salgan movidos.

- Fácil transferencia de archivos al ordenador, y es posible cambiar el formato del archivo para que no sea tan pesado.

- 21 modos de disparo

- Opción de disparo continuo, y muchas otras funciones que aún me falta por aprender! La recomiendo 100%!

This is the most useless camera I ever owned. I mailed my second replacement (third camera) back yesterday. Why? The battery door would not open on any of the Canon PowerShot A550 cameras that I received.

I talked to a couple of friends that were photography enthusiasts. They were not able to help me get the battery door open, which means I was not able to use the camera at all.

I am going back to my film camera. At least Kodak knows how to manufacture a camera with a battery door that opens.

A pox upon Canon and their quality control department.

I just wanted to say one thing about this camera. I do believe canon did a great job following up on the A95. However, what i am very dissapointed in is the construction of the camera. Notice that most digi camera under 250.00 do not offer 7 Megapixles. that is reserved for the higher priced cameras. The reason canon was able to do this is simply in the body construction. PLASTIC - and alot of it. Its flimsy feeling plastic. the A95 had a much more sturdy feel than the A620 especially in the pop out LCD. the cover for the ports on the camera (USB, Power...) is very poorly designed. Its a rubber/plastic type piece that is made to fit over the ports but never seems to want to stay - theres no latch or way to secure it. The A95 had the ports scattered all over the camera, which I liked, it allowed me to have more than one cord plugged into the camera without trying to shove them into one small space all together. the rubber piece covering the A95's ports were alot more effective. I have No idea why they decided to go with the SD memory type instead of sticking with the compact flash. that just boggles my mind. Anyhow...

Performance wise the A620 reminds me very much of the A95. the menus are familiar and the options are a plenty. I like being able to control how the camera focuses, where it focuses and the grip/LCD combo makes it easy to take interesting angle shots where as other cameras have the LCD fixed on the back of the camera (how are you going to take that myspace picture without a mirror or flip around LCD screen...HMMm???). The image quality is what you'd expect. Im not sure if the images Look Better but u can certainly zoom closer into them without getting any pixles. I would say it hosts about the same amount of colors. speaking of colors..the "my colors" option on the camera is pretty neat. Change any color to another or accent any color you want. Now you can also set your own white balance (an advanced feature only enthusiests would want to use)...im tired..i have nothing else to say...

If you are an enthusiest with a very limited budget I wouldnt look further than this camera. theres no two ways about it. its an amazing price for a VERY versitile camera (most digi's arent even this versatile untill you get to the SLR range.)

I bought this camera last week and I've take over 200 photos and a couple of movies. This camera is great for some one like me who wants the point and shoot options and settings but still likes to dabble in the manual world and play with doing it myself. I've used this camera to shoot pictures of my niece at the park, at the aquarium and on a carousal. The face recognition/ picture centering feature and the image stablization is great and allows you to capture images with out blurring. The aquarium pictures were amazing, with very clear detail and perfect lighting. The movies were clear with out shaking and the sound was pretty good. I also like that this camera allows me to use 2 AA batteries of any brand in case I get stuck somewhere with out any power.

I love the features and picture quality of this camera but I happened to get a bad one. Even with new batteries, any brand, it would only take 20-30 pictures and sometimes I hadn't even taken any pictures and it would tell me to replace them. Exchanging for another one because I don't want to give up on this model due to it's size and features. Easy to use and versatile with plenty of manual settings. Flash recycle time is slow but a minor inconvenience. Beware the possible battery problem but don't hesitate to pick this one up.

I received this camera 1 month ago and I haven't put it down. It is an amazing alternative to my often cumbersome SLR. Complete features, shocking zoom and surprisingly lightweight. I am delighted!

UPDATED: I sent the camera in after a phone call to tech support and there was a hardware problem (repaired, under warranty), and it works like a charm now. I've added the CHDK set of tools (guide here:[...]) and am getting awesome HDR photos and amazing tools.

Sure, it has great features, but you might as well buy a fully manual camera, because you'll be messing with custom settings any time you want to take anything but a shot in ideal lighting. Bright daylight? The photos turn out dark. Night/low light? Unless the subject is less than a foot away, the flash will fail to illuminate them and again - underexposure. This camera ruined my photography of my trip to India. Maybe I have a dud camera.

Se puede llevar algunas cosas extras dentro del estuche, buen diseño de Canon. El cargador nos indica cuando la bateria esta cargada y es bastante rapido y efectivo.

I bought this model for three reasons:
1) it is one of the few digital cameras to retain an optical viewfinder;
2) it is cheap so can be taken to risky places without worrying;
3) it has an above-average optical zoom of 4:1
and it has fulfilled its promise in all three categories.

The photos have not suffered from the clolour distortion mentioned in other reviews, so maybe Canon has fixed that problem in later production.

Overall, a great camera for the price.

I bought this camera for my husband. He loves it and it is very easy for him to use. The picture quality is excellent.

I love this camera. It's durable, easy to use, fits in my purse, and does everything I need it to to do. I've even dropped it a few times and it still works fine. In normal daylight, I always use the automatic settings. It takes perfect pictures. For pictures of my artwork, I change a few settings in the P mode, so I can adjust for the light and avoid using the flash. The macro works great and is easy to activate. If anything happened to it, I'd get another one either just like it or a similar model.

I bought the underwater case and the first time I took it with me for snorkeling I noticed some tiny cracks in the case afterwards. The camera wasn't lying in direct sun exposure nor was the water particularly cold. I had a disposable underwater camera with me as I wanted to make sure that if I don't get the digital camera to work in my first time snorkeling I could take some picture. The disposable camera was perfectly fine after my snorkeling trip so I think I had some bad luck with the underwater case. Unfortunately there is no warranty on this product so I have to hope the cracks will stay as tiny as they are. Still I am not very impressed about the quality.

This is my first foray into the realm of digital cameras because I've not been impressed with the quality of the pictures i've seen - at least in an affordable $200ish camera. Previously i've owned 2 SLR cameras with various lenses and flash attachments, as I am also NOT a fan of the small point and shoot cameras because I don't like their pictures either. But THIS camera is AWESOME. It takes beautiful pictures in all sorts of conditions on the AUTO setting. It has some really cool features like being able to make the whole picture black and white except you can choose one color to be highlighted. It is so much fun to experiment with. I bought it for a beach and Disney World vacation and i'm thrilled with the results. I took over 400 pictures just on the Disney trip alone! I've had several people ask me if I have a really high end digital camera, based on the quality of the photos and they're always shocked when i tell them the price. I feel like this is a STEAL! I've recommended it to others and 2 family members have already purchased it. It is really a marvelous little camera. The large amount of MP is not typical for this price range and the zoom is more than adequate (that's the one thing i REALLY miss about my SLR is the 300x zoom) but as far as digi cams go, this one has an impressive zoom. I really researched reviews and consumer electronics websites before the purchase. THis camera was highly rated across the board so i purchased it and i'm COMPLETELY satisfied. It does take 4 AA batteries rather than the typical 2, but the Energizer lithium batteries have lasted me thru more than 400 pictures, constantly reviewing the pictures (because they turned out so great, i keep looking at them), using the large screen rather than the viewfinder and constantly zooming in and out and turning the camera on and off. If that's still not enough for you, buy a set of rechargeables. EXCELLENT camera for the money.

This is really an exceptional camera. It's my third digital camera and the best by far. I run an online shop and bought a photo studio and lighting to photograph products. I have bought this camera purely for product photo's for my business, not personal use. The company I bought the studio from were using this camera and recommended it highly.

It comes with some great software for photo editing and you can link it up with your computer using the usb cable that's provided. You can then preview your shots in real time using the software and take the shot when you are ready. The results are fantastic and it's made our online shop look far more professional with the great photo's from this camera.

As I said I use it for work and haven't really made much use of it for personal photography but will if the rain ever stops! If you are looking for a good camera for product photography which can take great pictures in low light, can be hooked up to your pc, includes great software and seems to run forever on the batteries then this is the camera for you!

As a documentary photographer I dislike digital cameras and think that in all respects except convenience they are inferior to 35mm SLR cameras. But sometimes sheer convenience trumps camera build quality and photo quality. In that case, this tiny and fragile point and shoot zoom has some things going for it. Compared with similar digitals it's as good or better. Ken Rockwell waxes enthusiastic about it on his website, but then his photos usually aren't made under difficult conditions. If you need something like this, it's a good value. For closeups and middle distance shots, under good lighting conditions, the resolution is acceptable, particularly on a computer monitor. The Canon software that comes with the camera is clunky but better than nothing. The price makes it a good value, today. Like all digitals, it will be obsolete in a few years if it's not broken.

This camera is brilliantly designed and constructed. For an amateur photographer such as me I cannot imagine anything to improve.

I like these camera a lot. It cost us less than $200 in circuit city and it has been great. We took amazing pictures for our wedding and travels and we are very pleased with it. It's easy to use although a little bulky.

I own this product for over 2 months now and feel this is the best point-and-shoot in this range. Actually there cannot be anymore improvements in this already ideal camera.Be it macro mode, or normal mode every shot promises more than what you preview or review. Why I say so? The LCD screen doesn't give the real picture, with its average resolution.
The camera has a turning LCD screen which gives you more freedom with angles and views.
The camera might be a bit heavy, and definitely not a pocket sized one, but that is probably its advantage. You get a solid feeling holding it.
Its just an amazing camera in all aspects, except for low light photography. The images are not quite sharp in low light, probably because of the absence of image stabilizer.
Other than that, I recommend it to anyone who is thinking about it.

This is a great product! I have never purchased a digital camera before nor consider myself to be technologically apt. However, after doing much research and reading all the reviews, I ended up choosing this camera and it is fantastic. It is very easy to use, has tons of different modes to shoot in, and incredibly simple to synch up to a computer and download pictures. And you can't beat the price! All in all, a great camera.

Terrific camera, but needs some tweaking. So many reviews say the ergonomics are bad and it is difficult to hold. This is not true, it is just different than other point and shoot cameras. You just have to approach it differently. I bought my TX1 for a vacation I am still on and when having strangers take my picture they have had no problem seeing how to take a photo. In short it is simple to use, takes excellent photos and videos.
The build quality and internal design on the otherhand...

I have had my TX1 for 3 weeks and it is already failing. The lens cover does not close as quickly as when I first got it. (sometimes it takes 4 minutes to close!!) Another big problem is with image capture, In video mode a small spot is viewable. This ruins all video. No problem with stills, but the whole reason to own this camera is to take video. After only 3 weeks of ownership having these kind of problems is not acceptable. I called Canon and will be sending the camera in for warranty repair. Having to cover the cost of shipping after a product fails so quickly is a bit disappointing.

If you can wait for the next generation I would.

This is my favorite digital camera of the 4 that I have. The zoom is excellent, picture quality is sharp and vivid. You can't get this good of an optical zoom on this small of a camera anywhere else. And I got a great deal on it at Amazon.

I purchased this camera about 6 months ago. So far so good. This is my 4th digital camera in about 5 years (I take about 20-200 photos a week). I started with a Canon Digital Elph 2MP. Right before my year warranty was up, the door for the compact flash card broke off and the zoom was sticking at times - but they couldn't duplicate the stick so they just fixed the door. 6 months later the zoom wore out. I did drop it several times, someone bumped into me with a beer and it got a little wet. Besides the sticky zoom, the camera still works but I need more megapixels. Then I bought the 4 MP elph and it lasted 2 1/2 years before the button broke (to switch between viewing photos and taking photos). Then a friend talked me into a Casio because of the longer battery life, big screen and he showed me the great photos he took with his. So I switched from Casio - BIG MISTAKE. I enjoyed the long batter life and big screen but the flash was week and a lot of the photos I took in dark dance clubs were horrid. The Casio lasted 6 months before the zoom got stuck when I bumped it - not covered by the warranty. I switched back to Canon but I wanted something with more control, more manual functions. So the Canon S80 seemed like the best match. It is a little bigger than what I'm use to but the quality of the photos makes up for it. The video is amazing - it's great you can take small videos, easy enough to email - or high quality video - better than any camcorder I've owned.

Definetly get a 1 Gig card, especially if you want to use the high quality video. So far the camera is pretty solid - no problems as all and I think the bigger size is easier to hold onto.

My only complaint is that the dial to switch between modes moves too easily. If I have the camera on the setting I need for the night, I'll have the camera on, waiting for right moment to take a photo. While I'm holding the camera, I accidently touch the wheel with my thumb and change my setting without knowing it. Then when I go to take the photo, I miss the perfect moment because the setting is wrong. That's my only complaint - if it wasn't for that I'd give this camera 5 stars.
