Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX160 IS

This is the first camera that I bought for my mom. It is easy to use and has all the basic features. It would be better if had had the panoramic image feature - but this camera has good value for money. The image quality is good -almost as good as another 12x zoom 8MP camera that I have. Easy to learn to use and it comes with 16MB of external memory. we almost lost the 16MB card that was hidden inside the box.

I bought this for a friend and it has been working smoothly and great all the time. I cannot imagine any better. The delivery was fantastic, fast and nothing was damaged or scratched. Great service!

Jameson Thottam shifting sides back to Canon

I have to admit I am not the biggest fan of Canon. I received a Canon Powershot S20 for a gift and bad is an understatement.

So I was reluctant to try the Canon Powershot S80. It has a hefty price tag of $500-600. So it needs to provide some bang for its buck.

Superficial Inspection __ Jameson Thottam __

At first glance the Canon S80 is bulky and heftier than most point and shot cameras. You will not be sliding this camera discretely into a shirt pocket. It is definitely needs a camera bag, or a purse to carry this.

The camera is a little slow. Meaning if you are trying to take a picture of your 3 year old, you will probably miss the shot or get them turning away. Even though it has different shutter speeds you tend to miss most of those perfect moments.

Still the same old problems __ Jameson Thottam __

Also I have yet to test a camera with excellent red eye. This camera is no exception. In order to avoid red eye, Canon recommends having your subjects look straight into the flash. That is all good, but when I am trying to take a picture of my 3-year-old twins, looking into the flash is not an option. So most of my pictures appear to have those devil eyes.

Enough said__ Jameson Thottam __

With all that said, when you do get the shot the picture quality is fabulous. True colors bright and bold. (Something Canon has seriously improved on since the S20.) I cannot express enough how great the pictures look.

For a point and shoot camera it is fairly easy to operate as well. Once you get the battery charged you are good to go for quite awhile.

Battery life __ Jameson Thottam __

Which brings me to another plus, the camera had a fabulous battery life. I was able to use this camera for several days, medium to heavy use, without recharging the battery.

Summation__ Jameson Thottam __

If you have the money to spend on a point and shoot then this is the camera for you. You cannot beat the picture quality. If you are looking for a cheaper camera with a decent picture you will probably want the Canon SD450.

I highly recommend this camera. Takes excellent shots in automatic mode and gives you full control of everything if need be. I even took some decent astrophotography pictures with it, reaching magnitude 8 on a regular night in a big city, without telescopes, just by pointing it at the sky and using Registax afterwards.

I dropped mine on the floor of Macy's in New York during the Xmas holyday, cracking the case open and loosing the shutter button. After contemplating buying a new camera, I was able to regain use of the camera using a hair pin as shutter button. Took almost 200 pictures like this. I Will write to Cannon and see if I can get a new button.

I heard some comments about the e18 error. Well, I don't know about the other models, but this one is pretty sturdy and has taken some abuse with me, and still works just fine (even with a hair pin as shutter button).

If I had to purchase another camera for some reason, it would be another a540.

I dropped my A520 (which i really liked) on a hard floor... and had to replace it. This A540 outdoes the A520 in all aspects.

Better:

* higer resolution

* larger screen makes menus easier to navigate

* key controls farther on the right... easier to use

* camera auto-rotates pictures on the review screen (even as you rotate the camera)

The only negative, shared with the A520 is that the wrist strap does not have a cincher... so the camera can slip out of your hand... past the wrist and to the floor (guess how the 520 died...). i will be adding a fastener to this one.

Card note: with larger file sizes (due to higher resolution), i recommend using a high speed card in the camera (needless to say, the 16MB card Canon includes is beyond patheticly insufficient). Based on my last vacation (and if you take any videos at all), a 2GB card is not overkill for a 10+day vacation.

I like the camera and did a lot of research before buying it. I didn't realize how handy and convenient and valuable the pull out rotating screen is. You quickly learn to take advantage of high and low shots. Amazon had the best price especialy if you take into account free shipping and sales tax ;-).

I am just a little disappointed in ths storage speed but I can live with it.

The camera arrived before the promised data.

I was looking out for a good brand inexpensive camera and came across this A460. This camera is perfect for my day-to-day need. Good quality pictures with 2" LCD. It's awesome. With Canon brand, you can't go wrong! Before this Camera, I had always purchased Sony Cameras, and I think Canon is much better than the Sony's in terms of picture quality. I highly recommend this Camera to any buyer who is looking out for a nice camera with a low price.

I have to acknowledge what a fine company canon is. I bought this camera for my daughter [13] for chistmas. Not even a week later due to my daughters neglet it was left out were it got trampeld and scratched up and the optical lense was inoperative. The camera was trashed, so we were so upset because it cost a pretty penny. She took it upon herself to call customer sevice and have it shipped back to the factory to get an estimate to fix. Well come to everyones surpise they fixed the camera and shipped it back to my daughter free of all charges. They stated that allthough the repairs were not covered under waranty they stood by there product and wanted full satisfaction from thier customer!!!! Well all in all its a great camera with even beter customer service!!!! way to canon

thanx

i bought it for my 69 year old mom she picked it up
and put in the instructional dvd and started using it
the one thing i suggest get a fater sd card for short movies

When i got this camera, i tried it out immediately. It was incredible; i couldn't take a bad shot. It has great features that allow for very high quality photographs. It's the perfect size and has a great price for this level of performance.

I had previously owned a Canon Elf, that was no longer working properly, so I decided to buy another Canon, as I had always had good luck with their other products. My sisters both owned a version of this camera, so I thought I too would give it a try. I love it. I like the photos it takes, the various zoom features and the ease with which I can download the pictures to my PC. It is very easy to use, and unlike the Elf, it takes regular AA batteries. I like that because I don't have to worry about the charge going on me. I just carry extra batteries, and I am good to go.

The camera has some good manual functions, but it lacks a good sensor for low lite photos. It has a good macro, but it works only with manual focus that works very slowly. the lcd is small with a very low resolution and brightness.

The configuration of the camera is good, but it needs new sensor, new auto focus sistem and a new lcd.

Takes great pictures. Most valued features for me are the long battery life relative to number of pictures one can take and the moveable view finder. It has way more features than i will ever use, but that is true of all the cameras I looked at. It was a reasonable price and highly rated by Consumer Reports and the salesperson at Best Buy even though I didn't purchase there. Even though it is not the smallest model, it easily fits in my purse.

This is not my first digital camera but at my age it will probably be my last. Its light weight, easy to hold on to, and has enough bells and whistles to make me happy. My only problem is that I can't squat to take a picture, I'm 80. So I take the high views and leave the low shots to the young.

I bought this camera for my sister and had a chance to see it while she stayed with me. It is an great camera for beginners.

Good resolution, easy use. We especially loved the fact that it has a cable to the TV and we could watch the sightseeing pictures with the whole family.

You'll have to buy a memory card though because the one which comes with the camera isn't enough.

Cannon Powert Shot A550 is a good digital camera, you can get excelent photos and no need to much experience, in adittion you can record a video which sound.

Great camera with lots of functionality and capabilities. Easy to use, compact, light weight, and functionality that rivals SLR cameras. I like the large screen size, but the screen resolution is fair to poor. It handles only 2 AA batteries (versus 4 on other cameras) The manual states you can get up to 90 images with AA Alkaline batteries and up to 360 images with NiMH batteries. My experience with this camera is poor battery life if you use flash and the movie feature. You will need recharable batteries for this camera because Alkaline batteries won't last. I took 20+ pictures and a couple 7 sec movies with new Alkaline batteries and the camera warned me that my batteries were low. A battery charger is extra and the camera doesn't come with a carrying case. This is a great, inexpensive camera, but the poor battery life and the low screen resolution are real detriments.

I've had Olympus and Fuji lower pixel cameras but the A620 at 7 megapixels is absolutely great. As an amateur professional with lots of heavy Nikon SLR bodies, lenses and equipment, this Canon is now my choice of cameras 80% of the time.

Its color and whiteness balance are beautiful right out of the box. The controls are extremely easy to use for experienced photographers though the manual is needed if you are new to this technology. Be patient with the manual-it's not the best one but if you take your time it all comes together.

I found most pictures shot MUCH better with slight tweaking of the aperature and ISO rather than the flash which tends to make the pictures way too contrasty for my liking.

Contrary to other writeups Ive seen, the flash can be shut off. The camera is extremely comfortable and lightweight though this is not a mini camera for those looking for that kind of body. The zoom is great but too short on focal length (only 114mm).

The camera shoots and writes to memory quickly and I purchased a fast 1gb card-something you will defintely need for a trip. The cover for the USB and other electrical hookups is an absolute piece of garbage. How Canon puts that on an otherwise excellent piece of equipment is beyond anyones imagination.

The other great feature I specifically looked for is a bright LCD that is movable so you can shoot very low or very high angles. Not only does it swivel but when finished shooting, the screen can be turned INTO the camera, protecting it from those nasty scratches you get when carrying it around.

All in all- for the price-pick one up at Amazon-it was cheaper than anyone else, including my beloved B&H Photo.

I think it's a great camera - a cheap point & shoot with very decent images and video. It's handy and easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone who just wants something that will take quick pictures.

Don't forget a memory card!

My sister owns this camera for a while and she's really enjoying it. It's lightweight, compact, and has great features. Highly recommended.
BUT- try to find a different place to buy it. $599.00 is way too expensive.

We wanted a camera that uses AA batteries (for convenience) and is easy to hold (for my young children when they take picture of us) so we bought this camera. I had a Canon Powershot A80 and liked the picture quality but it broke after three years of use. The A80 was quite expensive at that time so I hesitate to get another point-and-shot that priced at the higher-end. We are very satisfied with the price, the picture quality, and the functions of the A550. The only shortcoming of the A550 I noticed so far is that the recharge of the flash is quite slow (even with full battery) so there is a longer-than-usual wait time before you can take the next picture after using flash.

I bought this camera not to long ago and it is without a doubt the best camera i have bought! I recommend this camera to anybody who loves the world of photography. I have Previously bought about 20 cameras ranging from Nikon, Kodak, Sony and other leading camera companys and they dont live up to what it says, this camera is really EXCELLENT! GOT MY 5 STARS!!

Amazing camera. The quality of the movies is as good or better than most camcorders. I used this camera, mounted on a tripod, to transfer my old 8MM movies to digital (I used a projector, a Dalite screen, and this camera). They came out better than with a video transfer adapter. I have also did the same thing with slides, using a Fuji 2800Z camera. The results are far superior to scanning, or lab processing.

The features of this camera put it on a par with most professional models.

Another thought: NASA has determined that 2-mega-pixle is equal to 20-20 vision. (The Mars explorer robots are equiped with 2 MP cameras.)

So, unless you are going to do some wild cropping, go easy on the file sizes.

Another plus: It uses AA bateries.

I love this camera! Took it on a rafting trip down the Snake River in Wyoming and had no trouble coming up with sharp, clear pictures. I like the way it feels in my hand. Definitely ergonomically correct. The only thing I would suggest to anyone purchasing this little gem is to buy a bigger memory card. The one that comes with the camera gives you only about 6 to 8 pictures.
