Great quality, cam stays in snug and can keep round my neck
Very pleased, especially at £[]
I bought the camera because I had owned a Powershot in the past that was great. I had taken it backpacking, rock climbing, kayaking, it had been submerged, traveled overseas and more. It only finally died while riding in a flatbed on some island and it came loose when I went flying through the air when we hit a bump. It was about 4 years old. So when I went to replace it I figured a new Powershot would be perfect. I was wrong.
I still prefer my SLR for more formal portraits and macro work, but for nearly every other type of photo the SX10 IS will likely be the one I reach for first. I'm recommending it to everyone I know who's looking for a camera that's more advanced than a typical point and shoot, but who doesn't want to get into the SLR realm. An enthusiastic 5 stars and kudos to Canon! Well done!
My suggestions for making the most out of this camera:
- The rechargeable batteries promoted by the bunny with his drum work very well with this and last a good long time, even with moderate to heavy use. I have the 15 minute recharger that has a car adapter too, which is handy for people like me who travel a lot. Consider a second set of rechargeables to have ready at any time or at the very least keep 4 AA batteries on hand as a back up. Overall, don't go on the budget plan for your rechargeable batteries for this great camera - you'll get what you pay for.
- If you want to keep your charger with your camera then don't buy a bag online - they probably won't have the capacity to hold both the camera and the charger unit. Go to a local retailer and pick one up there.
- Get a 52mm UV filter, blower brush, lens cloth and cap keeper while you're at it. They should total no more than $25 and are well worth the small investment.
- Consider picking up the laminated cheat sheet that an Amazon retailer offers. I found it by typing the camera's name under the "books" menu. It's about $15 with the shipping, but less cumbersome than the manual. If nothing else it helps you locate where in the manual to look for some of the more advanced settings.
Next comes the most important reason for buying any camera - image quality. Again, this camera can hold its own. This is a very small sensor camera. There is not a camera on the market with this size sensor that is going to produce high ISO, low light images that amaze you with beautiful, highly enlarged images. You've got to step way up in size and money for that kind of shooting. Otherwise, the SX10 IS will really surprise you. I'm astounded by the great images I can get up to ISO 400. Even ISO 800 shots are more than acceptable in decent lighting situations.
Combined with a Canon 580EX II, you can get some fantastic flash photography. Admittedly, this is a huge flash for such a small camera, but I already had one so I use it. You don't give up the best features of the flash with this camera. Many cheaper cameras won't use many of the features of the high end flashes. Not so with this combination. Things like high speed sync that allow very short shutter speeds are supported.
And of course, there is the main reason most people will even consider a camera in this league, the ultra long focal range. Combined with the easy portability of this camera, the lens makes this a great camera for doing it all. You can really stretch out there with a 35mm equivalency of 560mm focal length. The camera's IS feature allows you to hand hold the camera and still get good shots at this focal length in good lighting. The 28mm short end of the lens is quite good too.
As you can probably tell, after several weeks of using the SX10 IS, I am excited over this camera. To say it has replaced my Canon DSLR for casual shooting is an understatement. It has become my preferred camera in situations I never dreamed it would be used. If I don't need extremely short depth of field or very high ISO, super low noise images, this is the camera I pick up. It comes as close to a "do everything" camera as I have found.
The camera works fine, great pics etcetera, but the best camera in the world isn't going to help you when it's batteries are dead. I would rate the Canon PowerShot A590IS as a POS.
Pros:
High quality flash compared to Elph. Indoor shots are much nicer. The Elph would wash out the colors, whereas this camera provides pictures with nice color indoors.
Picture quality and zoom are far superior to small point and shoot cameras. There are some reviews claiming poor picture quality. I did not compare directly to the more expensive SLR cousins, but there are detailed reviews with image comparisons on sites like steves-[...]. They did not notice artifacts and other issues that people are claiming.
Parents, you will love the "sport" mode. There is no focus time when you are outdoors. If you see a shot you like, then you can just snap it right away. The pictures look great (as long as you have plenty of light). There is another mode where you can focus on a person and as the person moves it will track the focus of the individual. This mode is nice for following your busy child around too, but it's a bit tedious when there are multiple kids around and you have to tell the camera which face to track.
AA batteries: Get high quality rechargeable batteries and you will be satisfied (e.g. Sanyo Eneloop). No worrying about having to charge proprietary batteries.
Cons:
Video quality suffers indoors. The big problem is the video loses focus frequently when the lighting is not bright. Under conditions where a normal camcorder would be fine, the focus can fade in and out of the subject. I miss having an add-on light to increase lighting. I use a headlamp when indoors to compensate.
Outdoors, the video works much better. It won't replace an HD camcorder, but you can still get some nice clips.
Overall, the camera takes brilliant photos and the video is a nice option to have, especially outdoors where it is reliable.
I find it very easy to get exactly what I'm looking for in a shot. The manual focus is great, with the little focus box like a 35mm lens. I like the manual flip-up flash, too. It keeps it from firing when I don't want it too, and you don't have to try and remember what setting you had the flash on, you just have to look and see if it's up or down. I think that 9 megapixels is more than enough to work with, even when cropping. I have had a few problems with graininess above ISO 400. The continuous shooting mode isn't bad; I can 6 pics in 5 seconds if I'm using a fast shutter speed. I generally try and keep it in the 80-200 range and make up for it with shutter speed and focus range. The zoom is perfect. It's just enough to really get in close without getting too crazy. I don't see why you'd need the 20x zoom of the sx10. It just isn't necessary.
As far as battery life goes, it uses 2 AAs, so...it's easy and fast to just carry extras and replace them, but the battery life suffers with more than I'd like, especially if you zoom in and out a lot, or review your pics quite a bit. I wish it did have an optical viewfinder, which would save a little on juice, but I'm not sure where you'd put it, since the flash is smack in the middle of the camera. A second loophole for a neckstrap might have been nice, too.
Overall, though, I haven't seen another non-SLR camera out there that I like better. I really think that the image stabilization and the zoom combined with the amazing manual mode are the biggest strong points on this camera. I've never had a problem with an image being blurry because I was zoomed at the time. No camera is perfect, but this one really is top-notch. I spend my money very carefully, doing my research and waiting for a good deal, and I have in no way regretted choosing this camera.Canon Powershot SX110IS 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)Canon Powershot SX110IS 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
simply turn it inside out, problem solved. convenient, simple carry case for your camera at a tiny price
I returned them and Amazon is giving me a full refund (Thank You Amazon).
I am perplexed by this. Camera is a canon G9.
I finally decided it was time to upgrade, and on paper the SX10 IS looked like it would last me quite a while with all the features it offers.
This is a LARGE, heavy, DSL like point and shoot, with all the mode and options you'd find in the lower end DSLR's like the Nikon D40 etc. I was able to figure out the basic operation just by playing with it, but the manual is helpful. I STRONGLY urge you to read the manual.
I just have to mention the Face Detection. Playing around with the camera the day I received it, I was pointing it at the TV while watch Law and Order or something like that. And wouldn't you know it the Face Detection was going nuts. Every person's face who was on that TV screen, no matter how brief, no matter if it was one face or 3-4 faces, the camera detected their faces and put a white bracket around it.
Macro, and Especially Super Macro mode are amazing. This was one of the things that drew me to this camera. Being able to put suck a sharp focus on something so close it could be touching the lens is amazing.
Like I said previously, before I got this camera I knew nothing about shutter priority, apertures, white balance, ISO speeds and all that. With that said, after about a week of owning this camera I take almost all my pictures on either Auto, or Full Manual (50/50). Its just great to be able to fine tune your pictures before you take them. One of the other things I was worried about when buying a camera is having to rely on software to make the pictures look the way I wanted after transferring them to my PC. With full manual control, edits like that are almost unnecessary.
A word about the "wheel". I guess to some this is a departure from the conventional type of digital camera controls they're used to. I've never owned a camera like this and with no prior experience I can't really comment on that. I can comment on the wheel though. It is a little tough to use, takes anywhere from a 1/4 to 1/2 a turn, probably even more, just to get it to respond. I suppose that delay in response was probably to prevent setting changes if you accidentally touch the wheel or something. Either way, it takes some getting used to using.
Also, after having this camera for just a week, I have to say I don't know what I'd do with another camera that didn't have the swivel LCD screen. Its one of those things that you never knew you needed, until you have it and you wonder how other people get by without it. Definitely handy for macro shots and when using the camera at weird angels.
and leg!!! Fab!!
Pros:
- Awesome HD video quality
- Powerful 20x optical zoom
- Quality optical stabilizer
- Quality construction
Cons:
- Only average image quality
- Confusing settings and modes
Summary:
If you are looking for a very good hybrid cam that offers an impressive array of features but puts more emphasis on video quality then this is the perfect cam. Yes, the settings and modes can be a bit confusing but with a little usage they can be mastered.
Brief Review:
Frankly I bought this camera with the intention of taking still images with it but I also wanted 1080p video capability (in case I don't have my much more expensive video camera with me). After taking several hundred images I found the still image quality to be unimpressive (or about average).
It was when I switched it to video mode that I was blown away. The quality and color depth when set to "vivid" preset was absolutely stunning! In fact, it was so good I immediately got rid of my dedicated video cam. Ironically, I love the video quality so much I have all but stopped taking pictures.
The pictures tend to take several takes for a good one. They are ROUGH. So don't buy it expecting to get quality shots.
So if you're looking for a camera to use for interesting pictures and such, I would not recommend it.
The colors do not come out vibrant, rich or focused often times.
However, this camera is tough. I have dropped it countless times, taken it on a dusty safari ride and even broken it open once. But it never fails to somehow begin to work again. The only design flaw is the button to switch back and forth between taking and viewing pictures. Eventually, the switch wears out and it sometimes refuses to work.
So there you have it, rough and tough.
As time wore on, the lens error became more and more of a problem. After another three months, I called Canon. The (arrogant) tech support guy just said, "Oh, this happens when the batteries are weak."
"Oh really?" I said, unwrapping a new set of Energizer AA's. "Let me just stick these puppies in here and see what happens... Huh. Well, would you look at that. So much for your battery theory pal."
After embarrassing him thusly, his only "solution" was to send the camera in for Canon to look at it (at my expense). This would take a minimum of six weeks, after which there was no guarantee I would not continue to have the same problem with the camera. I mean, come on--a design defect is a design defect, after all. I was certainly not the first person to have this problem with this camera. Not only that, but no camera for SIX WEEKS?? I would not have survived.
Sadly, before I could pack the thing up and send it in, I dropped it from the staggering height of three feet. You guessed it, end of camera. Canon makes cheap crap with poor durability and cheap lens mechanisms.
So guess what I did? Yup, I bought myself a Nikon. I've had three of them with ZERO problems over the years. This is number four. My replacement is working beautifully, and is smaller to boot. Excellent image quality too. I will not buy a Canon again. Fool me once, it's your fault. Fool me twice, it's mine.
Buyer beware.
The Powershot A470 was purchased in June 2009. It has worked well and I did not have any issues with it. I currently have 3 other MFG digital cameras and historically only purchased Canon or Nikon SLR's.
Because I have 3 other digital cameras this specific model has been used maybe 15 times or so since June 2009.
It has functioned fine. The rest of the time its been in a case on my bookshelf.
Oddly the other day (last week) went to use the camera and noticed that the retractable lens cover stayed shut. If I touch it a bit or tap it will open up (springs for the cover appear ok). I have tried the vacumn "fix" thinking it might be dirt and that did not work.
Looking for suggestions and wondering if anyone else has noticed this issue after owning the camera (and using it) for a period of time?
First the good stuff:
--I have to say the battery usage, or lack thereof is incredible. I bought rechargeable NiMH batteries and I have managed to fill up a 2GB card two and a half times with photos and video (occasionally using flash, almost always with the LCD on) and I have only had to replace the batteries _one time_. On a typical day of shooting for 3-4 hours I may replace the batteries one time. This was an issue I was concerned about, but I have been incredibly surprised, impressed and overjoyed by this. With the regular alkaline batteries that came with the camera, I took only 200+ pictures with the LCD on, flash on part of the time.
--6MP and 4x optical zoom, thats pretty good for cameras today. For most consumers this is as much as you will ever need, perhaps more than you need. Of course, give it a year and all the cameras will have 8MP and 6x.
--The user interface is pretty intuitive and easy for the average user to figure out, especially if you have used Canon before. The only camera I have ever used was my mothers A70 and I was easily able to navigate through the controls to do what I needed.
--The pictures look very good, the colors are beautiful and generally they are very sharp. The pictures I took last fall were very good. I found some of the automatic "scene" settings to be helpful as well, the "foliage" setting worked great to put emphasis on outdoor colors.
--An advantage over the A530: The user can manually select things like shutter speed and aperture priority. There is also an auto setting. For someone who is trying to learn photography a little instead of simply take pictures, this has helped me to experiment. Often I find that at times I may want less exposure time and am willing to sacrifice some brightness for the resulting sharpness.
--The camera does feel light and rather small in the hand, but its comfortable to hold.
A Few cons:
--Probably the main problem that would affect most people is that 5-7 second delay when using the flash. I can see how this would be an issue for some people who have children or want to take a lot of pictures in darkly lit areas. I rarely do this but if you are wanting to take a lot of pictures with flash in succession, this could be a major issue.
--In low light settings the photos are not great, something I had read about ahead of time in reviews. Taking good pictures on a rainy or overcast day can be a challenge. I was surprised how good some pictures looked when I recently went out on a dark foggy morning and took pictures.
--In movie mode there is noticeable motor noise picked up by the microphone when the camera adjusts to light changes and when zooming in and out. A minor quibble for those mostly wanting to take photos, but may be an annoyance for others who occasionally want to shoot video with the camera (like me, although I am not overly concerned with high quality video as with high quality pictures). A side note, movie mode does tend to take up a lot of memory, but you have the option to take fewer frames per second (15fps/30fps) and you can decrease the resolution.
--The memory card included with the camera is pretty worthless. Canon has included 16MB cards with cameras ever since the A70 and before, and yet the number of megapixels has more than doubled. Is it not time to increase the size of the card included? I found a good deal on a 2GB card and with that on the highest resolution and quality compression rates it will hold around 750 pictures.
--There are two instruction manuals included, one is a basic manual and the other a "advanced." I have to say that the advanced one is not as detailed as I would like. It explains what things do without telling you exactly why you would like to use this or that setting or when.
--Another minor quibble, I have noticed some "barrel distortion" (if you don't know what that is you probably do not need to worry about it, or you can look it up online) on close up pictures, this inevitably happens with every camera though, and is probably no more exaggerated here than with others.
The value for the money with this camera is very good. I managed to get it for $168 in January 2007.
After reading many reviews and ratings on this camera I can say it has lived up to it's high reviews. The camera has a solid & heavy feel to it unlike alot of competitors plastic feeling cameras.
I do a lot of uploading small edited videos to Youtube and the video quality portion of this camera is better than my present combo camera I had been using and the video is done in .mpeg instead of .mov like many other brands. Another reason for the quality is that this camera has glass lens in it unlike many comptetors cameras whose have plastic lens.
As far as still picture quality goes this camera is better than any digital camera I've ever owned and I've had many different brands since digital cameras have been developed.
It's simple to use for first time users as well as more experienced users. It has many standard point & shoot features and has a limited manual mode to adjust WB,ISO,Color settings and limited exposure settings.
It has built in red eye removal of the finished picture, great self timer feature and good continuous shooting mode which works great if your not using the flash. Flash recharge (about 5 sec.) is a little slow but I think it's about normal for this size and price.
I have taken many action pictures in the past month and not a blurry one in the bunch.
In other reviews on this camera I have read are some complaints about battery life. I did wear out the standard alkaline batteries that came with the camera in less than a day but think that was due mostly to setting up and playing all day with my "New Toy".
I use rechargeable AA batteries and have not had any battery drain problems out of the ordinary since. As with any new digital camera or camcorder it would be wise to use rechargeable.
The camera comes with a very tiny memory supplied SD card which is only good for a few pictures. It is more of a "starter" SD card and should be replaced with either a 2,4,8 or 16GB SD or SDHC card as soon as possible since the camera does not have any internal picture storage capacity.
All in all this is a great first time user or even a somewhat experienced user point & shoot camera and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for good quality at a great price.
Taking the camera to a concert I found the limitations of the hardware and its lack of control very apparent. In the same kind of lighting conditions I never had to go above ISO 400 with the A70, and could get respectable shutter speeds. To get similar shutter speeds on the Ixus 980 I had to set the ISO right up to 1600 and it would often still opt for speeds that were too slow to be practical. Despite the high ISO, the good shots show remarkably little colour noise, but are nonetheless noisy.
The root of the problem seems to be the lack of any real aperture control, which effectively prevents you from allowing more light in to get shots on a lower ISO speed and allow faster shutter speeds. In manual mode, the Ixus 980 gives a choice between two aperture sizes (which vary), but these do not seem to affect depth of field so it seems that there isn't really a true aperture affecting the shots. The manual mode is therefore not as flexible as it would suggest since you have no real aperture flexibility with which to affect other settings.
On the whole though, the images captured by the Ixus 980 are excellent given the very high pixel count (remembering the golden rule that more pixels does not equal a better camera!). If you're used to more control over your shots and something a little closer to an SLR's flexibility you may be better off going for one of Canon's PowerShot models instead.
I opted for the Ixus for compactness and lack of protrusions but the size differences really aren't that much. Naturally with the compactness you have to make some compromises, but for its size, the 980's capabilities are still amazing. It's a beautiful little camera too, nice to hold, and the controls work very effectively though some obviously find the thumb wheel awkward. I find it well balanced and easy to use. It starts up quickly, and things like the battery and SD card slot are nice and easy to get to. Batteries charge quickly and last well.
On the whole a great camera packed into a tiny package, but be aware of its limitations if you want a little more than point-and-shoot when you hit its boundaries.
1. The PQ is horrid. One of our CAMERA PHONES produces nearly identical PQ. Only slightly worse. I called Canon and after talking to the nice person on the phone, they had no explanation. They suggested I email images to one of their higher up techs. Two days later, no response. Update: A week later I called and asked about the pictures, what they thought of them. They said they did not get them. I emailed again to the person on the phone and she did get them while I was on the phone and said they were typical photos for the camera. If that's typical, I have to say Canon has very low standards for this camera.
2. The buttons are in all the wrong places. You cannot carry or handle this camera w/o hitting buttons unintentionally.
3. This camera weights 1.5 pounds. That's about equal to 2 12oz cans of soda. Go pick up two cans of soda and try to carry that around like you would a camera.
4. There is only one way to grip this camera and it requires 2 hands. There is no other way to use it successfully.
5. It only comes with standard rca cables to view the HD video. Which, is just horrible. Who in their right mind would put a standard cable with a HD camera?
6. The SD card is very, very hard to get out.
7. The HD movies will not play on my computer. [UPDATE: We had to update to QT 7 to get them to play. Which does work. However, the video is jerky and jumpy. About every 1 second it seems to skip several frames. The PQ just just good, on the very low level of HD expected quality.]
I know I'm being overally dramatic, but it's hard to keep it cool considering this is a $500+ "HD" camera. I do LOVE the wide field of view, it's awesome. The 20x zoom is outstanding... in theory. the problem is, both are worthless if the PQ is not any better than a camera phone. I've uploaded my own photos here taken with this camera so you can see for yourself. One shows the dark dot, and the other is the kitchen sink area. You be the judge if I'm being overly critical of this $500 camera.
Bottom line: if you care about the picture quality, ease of use, or ergonomics, skip this one.
My experience level: well seasoned amateur.
I question some of the reviews on this site. They sound like they were written by professional copywriters for a PR campaign. Trust this one and the other review "Noise and grain." That is the truth for this camera. This camera is a dog.
Pros:
AA batteries - Don't do regular alkaline. Go with NiMH rechargeable batteries, and preferably Eneloop or precharged Duracell and the like. It lasts a good while. I've taken many test shots, video, changing settings, reviewing test shots and my eneloop batteries are still going strong.
Image quality - Canon-like quality. Not Digital SLR quality. Other reviews state that high ISO is grainy. Personally I've gone up to ISO 400 and 800 with my photos, and as a point-and-shoot the image quality is just fine.
Optical Zoom - 4x optical which is more than the typical 3x in most point and shoots.
Camera Body - Sturdy body for the most part and the LCD screen is a good size.
Cons:
Flash recharge - It's not that bad, but it can take up to 5-6 seconds to recharge sometimes. If you're getting a point-and-shoot though, then it's not like you need to be taking multiple quick shots.
Buttons - The buttons are not backlit so it can be hard to see in the dark. I'm not sure how many cameras even have backlit buttons. You can redirect the lcd light to the buttons if you really need to see the button labels.
Compartment doors - The door for the AA battery and memory compartment looks and feels flimsy. Also the door for the AV and USB compartment is an elastic door that's not that great.
Glossy LCD screen - The LCD screen has some pretty bad glare, but there is a viewfinder. Most cameras usually have glossy, glarey screens anyway I think.
Cannot control shutter speed - You can't manually adjust shutter speed, so you have to play around with just ISO and flash.
Size - This could very well also be a pro, but the size is bigger than the other subcompact cameras. However you won't find a smaller camera that takes AA batteries to my knowledge. It fits well in my hand though, and I think I have average sized hands. It can easily fit in a front pocket unless you have tight pants and small pockets.
I recommend the Canon A1000IS. It's a good deal.
Most electonic gadgets have more features on them then one will ever use, and this camera is no exception. Slowly, I am trying to learn more to take advantage of more features. On the other hand, if you want ease of use then with this camera you can be out taking pictures as soon as you put in your batteries and memory card. Speaking of memory cards, you will want to buy a high speed card to take advantage of the continuous shoot feature. This is great when taking pictures of moving objects. Another feature I haven't mentioned is the great video (with sound) that you can take with this camera. Having a high capacity memory SD card helps. I always carry extra cards, but with my new 8 GB card I won't be using the extra cards very often.
Face recognition is another feature I haven't used before. It is an interesting feature and new tool when taking group shots.
I could go on and on, there are so many good things I could say about this camera. I really don't have any negatives other than accidentally pushing buttons when I don't want to. As I had read in another review, the controls are "touchy" and you have to be aware of where your "fat fingers" land.
I'm a senior citizen who loves to take pictures and have thousands of photos on my computer. I enjoy viewing slide shows of all the pictures of our travels throughout the USA and also abroad. If you want to take a step up from the compact point and shoot then I would highly recommend the Canon PowerShot SX10IS. It has features you will appreciate for taking photos both indoors and out.
BEFORE buying this camera, would have also said that battery life is also a plus, as I much prefer AA batteries when traveling: you can recharge as needed but can always grab some at a corner store if you absolutely need to in a pinch.
After researching current PowerShot models (on-line and in-store), I bought this A590 from Amazon for my 13 y.o. brother to take with him on his 1st trip to Europe - a school trip to London & France. How very disappointed when, 4 days into his trip the camera 'went dead.' It turns out we received a version of this camera from Amazon that required an additional WATCH-TYPE BATTERY FOR THE LENS.
THIS IS NOT MENTIONED ANYWHERE IN THE CAMERA SPECS!!!!!!! When I researched this camera in-store, the A590 I handled DID NOT require any batteries in addition to the standard AA's, nor did the user guide included with the camera mention anything about this additional battery.
I might have actually bothered to return the camera simply due to this lack of disclosure, but this wouldn't have remedied the disappointment of a 13 y.o. boy.
Has anyone else received an A590 with a similar issue?
I still love the Canon products overall, but am unsure why the camera we received was not as described (by both Amazon and Canon). I am currently researching new cameras for an upcoming trip. I do not feel comfortable buying a camera again from Amazon due to this issue - how can I truly be sure that what I am buying is what I receive.....do I want to be in a remote Italian village when my camera dies for some unknown reason?
Just for the hell-of-it, when I registered this camera, I let CANON know that my 4 year old A75 PowerShot stopped working. It blurred out with purple vertical lines. They said to send it in and they'd fix it for free if it was one of those that got a bad CCD. Ten minutes ago the Fed Ex guy brought it back and it's fixed!!! FREE, new CCD and adjusted and cleaned! Amazing. Just that alone makes me glad that I picked the Canon. What other company would pay shipping and fix a 4 year old camera for FREE?! NONE!!! Very Impressed with Canon. They've made me a loyal customer for life. They probably fixed it because I just bought this SX10IS. But, they didn't have to. I never expected them to do this. I was just curious to why my A75 went bad and if it was worth fixing to use as my work camera. Anyway, I never write reviews, but no one's ever fixed a camera that's years past warranty for free and had it back in under 2 weeks!!! My next camera will be a Canon, and the one after that, and after that... When I was researching for the SX10IS, the main complaint was that the lens cap gets lost. Mine hasn't and they make caps with a lanyard for like [...] bucks! What it comes down to is, shake all you want, your pictures will still come out butter smooth, even a mile away!!!
This cover will be good, if you want to keep camera and additional accessaries into that. Not a good fit, if it is only for camera
After taking only about 20 pictures the lens refused to retract and now simply reports 'lens error, restart camera.'
After further investigation I find that this is a common, well documented problem. I have not yet had time to contact Canon to find out how to resolve this problem.
I wouldn't advise the purchase of this camera as it is clearly unreliable. It has probably only taken 50 pictures since it was first used.
The LCD screen is big enough for me, especially with its flexibility. A rubber eye piece (eyepieces@cheltenhamas.com) makes the view finder VERY efficient... highly recommended. The ease of use of the automatic controls to the ability of full manual control, with the ability to add attachments using a converter ring (52mm-58mm)and the hot shoe for an additional flash makes this camera limitless. I don't mind the lack of HD recording. Honestly, if you're that into video recording, shouldn't you be looking at camcorders? The CANON SX 10 IS is the best of three worlds for me: automatic, manual, and video in one.
