I just recently obtained this camera, and I got up and started using manual after reading the directions, taking me about 10 minutes to get settled in. The flash is annoying and pops up every time you turn it on.PROS:14x Optical24fps Video Shooting + Dual MicrophoneLow Light ExcellenceTons of programs and creative modesNice compact Design and modern feel3200 ISO and f(3.1)CONS:Battery Life Quick Drain...You can get another for around $3 total cheap ones works as well.Flash (Not too annoying)GPS drains battery, sometimes doesn't pick the coordinates up even when I was outdoors.Too many modes, I'm not too crazy about miniature effects"" and ect.Can give an unrealistic photo on Auto, great for manual tuningMenu settings and deleting photos are a bit of a hassle scrolling up and down.

I researched this to death and really thought I was getting the right camera for me. This was a LOT of money for the quality pictures it produces! I think I am paying for the added features and not the picture quality. If this is a 12.1 megapixel camera, then my 8mp phone camera is an 18 mp!I am probably going to contact Canon and see about getting it checked.I travel all around the world and needed a compact, easy to tote camera that takes good quality pictures. I think I've said enough about the picture quality. Major disappointment from the start!

This is a great deal, bought it for about 1 year and it still works as new. Delivery time, great, and the camera itself is just amazing. Small in size for the great pictures. Highly recommended.It is small in size, and when turned on the lens ins't as big as others, but it still gives you exceptional performance for a point-and-shoot camera.[UPDATE]I still recommend this camera. I have been using it for family events and some casual photos and it delivers as much as expected. Great photos. It is the best point-and-shoot camera on the market. Even that is not as new nowadays, it will beat a whole lot of cameras out there in the market.

I love my Canon SX 230 HS.Initially I was annoyed that the flash was a mechanical pop-up.But after getting used to it ... so many situations are such that i DO NOT WANT flash such as performances that say "No flash photography" so I would have been constantly checking the settings to confirm that flash is off. With this, you just hold your left finger over the pop-up when you turn it on and Presto, no flash. And you KNOW the flash is off. (And by the way, it takes very good pictures in low light!)It's actually very simple. If you want flash again before you turn it off/on, just manually flip it up.

this camera is easy to use, small enough to fit into a purse, can be adjusted to various automatic settings, or programmed manually. the pictures are excellent quality for the pixels, and the zoom is sizeable. i had the previous version of this same PowerShot, which suffered a fatal accident, and had no hesitation about buying this one without researching again. there are upgrades in this version that i didn't find necessary but appreciate, e.g., the automatic night scene takes 5 shots and selects one to show the user, all in rapid-fire time. i've taken several classes to learn how to program the shutter speed and f-stop. i'm always the only person in the class with a point-&-shoot style camera, but my pictures frequently lead the instructor to utter the phrase i used for the title of this review: you took THIS picture with that little camera?! as far as i'm concerned, this is very close to a dslr camera and half the price.

i bought this camera to replace a really old one that i had. i bought it because of all the features it advertised ie, zoom, megapixels, and different settings for different scenes. I am not a serious photographer but i do enjoy taking pics of the family when on vacations, and this little camera does an incredible job! i am also very pleased with the video capabilities that it has. very happy with my purchase.

My old Camera was a Nikkon, and after i got robbed in Paris with all my memories of this trip in there, yep... that was devastated! i wanted to buy a new camera that fullfilled the journey of travelling alone, with great quality, low movement in the images, good quality in low light pics, etc.I was about to buy a SONY digital camera as a good point and shoot one, but after i used and see the one (sony) that my boss just bought ("Proudly") and see the low quality in the images, the blurry movement, the bad performance in night shots, i refuse to buy it, and start to look for other brands, i was not sure in CANON, but after a bunch of reviews readings, and online resource, i choose this one and have not regrets at all.This Camera is a Tank, is strong buided, really cute (yes, i have the "red" one... is more like a "hot pink" kind of color.I took pictures to owls in a long distance and the zoom is incredible, even in the max zoom the quality of the shots is GREAT!In movement, in color intensity, the features are awesome!!!Dont Care about GPS (i dont use it / turned off).get use to the Flash... not big deal.The battery life is average... i got another just in case.Great videos!If you are looking for a GREAT camera to have for travels and for personnel interest as family, friends and pest THIS IS THE ONE!I even dont know some deep photographers knowledge features that the camera has, i recoment to read the manual (212 pages) with the camera, trying all that it can do, it will help you to optimize it use even more!

I have enjoyed my PowerShot s400 Elph for a number of years. This year, I wanted an ultrazoom camera for vacation. Have you ever tried to get shots of animals that are far away? You can't always "walk up to your picture". This camera took some excellent pictures, and the video is awesome. Some things are just better viewed as a video and the HD recording is easy to do from the Auto mode since it has a separate button. I took some videos in a very dark setting and the performance was as good as I could ask for. The photos under low light conditions were also great.I did not turn on the GPS so felt that the battery lasted well under these conditions.The pop-up flash is a little annoying since it opens every time you start the camera. You can, however, hold it in a way that the flash just doesn't pop up if you don't need it.Again, the stabilized 14x zoom leads to some excellent pictures. In order to accomplish this, the width of the camera lens has to go from 30mm to over 80 - Impressive! I found the auto focus to be fast enough. Still, the camera is VERY light and portable. I would not carry a big SLR although I would love the pictures that come out of it. This camera gets you a long way to SLR performance.The controls are fairly intuitive - I forgot to bring the manual but was able to easily navigate most features. The review mode is very nice and the wheel allows you to move quickly between pictures. I like to delete a bunch of bad photos before uploading to Photoshop Elements or Picasa and this camera made it easy to do.Above all, the pictures and videos are beautiful. At the end of the day, that is the absolute criterion a camera should be judged by.

There's many components to this camera and I'm still learning how to use it but I love it. I only don't like that if you're recording a video, it catches the sound of the lens zooming in and out. I bought a spare battery because this one does die quickly. If you don't have the time and patience to learn all the functions of this camera, this is not the camera for you because although you can just put the automatic function on the camera and snap a million pictures, this camera is made more for using the different settings and taking good quality/sophisticated pictures instead of the kinds of pictures that your every day plain jane takes.

I bought this camera for my girlfriend and she loved it. Once she opened it up we tried out the camera for a bit and the picture quality was amazing! We tested out the flash by closing the curtains, making the room dark and the picture came out exactly the same as if it were taken with sunlight.As this was a gift, I don't really know effective the program that comes with the camera is. It does have customization options such as adding a sound when the camera turns on (i.e. animal noises). The camera also has a "Smile Detection" mode. The camera will take a series of three pictures once it reads everyone's smile which was a pretty interesting feature.For those who love to take pictures, this camera makes an excellent gift. And the fact that it's from Canon doesn't hurt either. The only thing that I failed to notice upon buying it was the lack of an SD stick. It's not something that hurts the review of the product, but the camera didn't seem to have an internal memory to save at least a picture to show of the quality to other people. Once the picture was taken, it had to be erased.Overall the product is amazing, I can't wait to borrow the camera to mess with the setting and options myself.

I travel. A lot. For me, this is the combination of all things good: A fantastic camera that not only takes pictures, but makes sharing about the world easier. Where I'm from in the dirty South (New Orleans, LA), not a ton of people pick up one day and fly out to Syria. In fact, I'm the first in six generations to fly to another continent. When I got the camera, first thing I did was do a walk-through around the city. The geo-location tags were impeccable and the shots were... amazing. I tested out all the features - color specific, ISO increasing, multi-picture mode, you name it, Canon knows what they're doing. I tore down to my favorite wine shop last Sunday night, and for those of you who've seen "Treme", yes, Bacchanal does exist, just not in Treme, and through their backyard, lit only by a string of lights, I was able to take impeccable low-lit pictures without flash. Seriously, it was Tanga night, and in this four piece band there was no drum, just a beautiful lady clicking her heels on the wooden platform for percussion, and the pictures are simply put - splendid. I can't even believe this is a point and shoot.The next trip I take is going to be to Thailand in six weeks and I'll happily test the geo-tagging and report back with that and a wear-and-tear account, but so far, so good. The battery is lightly short lived if you keep GPS on even when you aren't using it. Recommendation- turn it off when you power down the camera, then re-enable.Yay Camera!**UPDATE** Back from South East Asia with some incredible pictures. Beware travelling through countries that don't allow GPS (like Vietnam!) but otherwise, awesome. The pictures are incredible. Not just that, but the camera was hardy and worked like a dream the whole time. I had one problem where the shutter was bent, but I re-bent it back with a penny and went about my business. It made it through two months of use and re-use, living in a backpack and getting tossed under busses and, generally, falling on the floor a few times, but still rugged as hell! Made it through and got home with over 4,000 pictures, mostly incredible.

I've had mine since September and took it along on a short vacation to Michigan and Florida. I came home with maybe 150 images set mostly on Aperture priority for the trip. Thinking the f8 setting may help the sharpness I can't say it helped at all. Possibly the dof changed but I'll have to push it a little harder with some more challenging dof requirements. As others have mentioned the GPS does draw down the battery quite fast especially in log mode in a couple of short days for me. I did drop the camera once onto concrete from 2 ft or so. It damaged the metal band near the flash but otherwise all works well.Pros: Lightning fast start-up and shutter response.The GPS is handy.Very good low light performance. Not a bad price point.Cons: The GPS is handy but slow to acquire a location ( ą 100ft) and draws down the battery fast.Weak flash.Colors get muddy in the fine details, yellows and green especially. I find this true in my other Canon Power shot A710-IS as well and the fall colors in Michigan especially took a hit.Edit: October 2013. I've started getting lens errors occasionally and have to power off the camera to "fix" it.Edit: March 2014. Getting "lens errors" continuously now and the camera shuts off. So I guess it's all over for this one. 2 1/2 years was it's life span. I've down graded the rating to two stars.

I should have listened to the other comments people were making about this camera! I did extensive research on our new camera too! The only positive I see with this camera is the quality outside pictures it takes. They are really nice too! However, I live in a cold, midwest climate, and I cannot live outdoors! The indoor pictures are not great! I kept trying to take pictures of our family in front of our Christmas tree, and we have a big, bay window behind it, and the light just blurred every single picture. I tried the multiple settings that this camera offers, and none of them worked. It was disappointing. I bought my second grader a Kodak easyshare, and I took a few pictures with the light and all, and they looked great--go figure, and it is a much cheaper camera! My last two cameras were Sony cybershots, and the last one was only a year old, and it kept messing up in the lighting, and the pictures were blurry a lot! It was very frustrating! Nonetheless, another feature that others complained about was the flash, and yes, it is a huge pain in the neck! I have a good deal of experience taking pictures, but I am no pro., but this camera is certainly not worth the money!

The SX230HS is a terrific camera with a lot of really nice features. But, the experience with the actual product makes me wonder about Canon's quality control. The camera I ordered powered up, but the screen on the back never turned on. Considered DOA, it was returned to Amazon and replaced immediately. The replacement powered on perfectly, but after looking at the pictures from our first trip we noticed strange spots on the images. Looking closely at the lens, we discoved small white specks trapped between the elements of the lens, almost like paint splatter. Being a few days outside the normal return window to Amazon, I wrote and explained the situation. In typical Amazon fashion, they replied immediately and authorized the return. I'm now on camera #3. Looks good -so far-. My disappointment with Canon's quality control is, however, somewhat moderated by the excellent customer support at Amazon. My recommendation - if you buy this camera, make SURE you check it carefully.

I really like this camera. It has lots of fun features and takes great picures yet is still small enough to fit in my pocket. My favorite feature so far is that you can set it to pick out one color and the rest is black and white. I got some really great river shots. Looking forward to playing with it even more and mastering all the features. The great thing about digital is that instant feedback. :-)

Love my new Canon PowerShot! It takes beautiful images and has a bright, crisp display. Videos are awesome with steady shot feature on the video recorder. Videos from a moving train looked like they were taken using a tripod. The only negative is, in some medium to low light situations, the AUTO setting will use available light at low shutter speed instead of flash, resulting in a blurred picture. This can be overcome by using shutter priority setting at 1/60 sec. This is still the best point and shoot I ever owned.

The flash complaint is true, but you get use to it. I had the GPS off, the battery life wasn't bad, I got a extra cheep $4 battery just in case. The zoom is great, there are many features to play with. Obviously for many the price is a factor in buying this camera. Using the auto mode, I noticed the flash didn't go off automatically in my home, it seemed to take good pictures. The readings were saying it didn't need a flash. However when I drilled into the picture details, the pictures were not as clear as I would have expected. Though everything else seemed good, lighting colors ect. In the auto mode, I didn't see a option to force the flash on. (Using the P mode, it seemed similar to the auto mode, but you could force the flash on in the P mode.) Using the flash, for the same shots that were taken without the flash in auto mode: The flash took great sharp pictures, great detail when you drill into the shot, compared to the non flash shots. I just needed to find a mode to turn on the flash. I know there are benefits to not using a flash, but I like the crisp sharp details the flash produced. Not sure if other cameras in this class have the same issue.

I am 77 years old, just bought this camera, unused to such simple handling. Took pix with ease, on my walk this a.m. saw bear cub, stood back but used the magnifying image. Very clear. Also took roadside daisies, enlarged with great detail. Baby ducks with their mother in a field. Again clear. Finding pix easy to take. Not used video yet. Camera small, compact. not heavy. Arthritic fingers but camera easy to operate.

Hi,I was looking for some high optical zoom digital camera in Canon. This is the great camera. 14x is very good for taking distant object pic. I have impressed with the manual adjustment feature. Last months i went see sunset at tampa. This 14x zoom and manual adjustment and fast shutter speed helped me to take nearly 20-25 pics within 5-8mins of SunSet. Also the picture came very nice.The only disadvantage i felt is the Battary charge while taking video. The battery is quickly getting discharged if i take any video in this camera.Thanks,Haris

First off, I love Canon cameras and have gotten to the point where I will only buy Canon cameras (I tried a Sony and a Pentax/Lumix and the user interfaces were lacking). That said, my initial impression of this camera is that it is awkward to hold. The biggest issue is the pop-up flash: it gets in the way of your left hand when you hold the camera normally and always pops-up when you power on the camera. While you can push it down, there is a fairly strong detent that, if the manual hadn't specifically noted that you can manually push it down, I would have thought I was breaking it. I guess I may be a bit harsh giving the camera only 3 stars for this, but All of my other Canon cameras (I have owned a total of 5 digital Canon cameras) have been ergonomically superior to this one. I can't comment on the GPS feature and I just discovered last night there is a mode that captures a video snippet for each still picture so I'm intrigued by that (I just haven't played with it enough to make a judgement).Bottom Line: I'm on the fence for the first time with a Canon digital camera.P.S. If you're looking for a DSLR, I love my Canon T2i and highly recommend it. (But obviously this is for a totally different use model than the SX230.

I bought this camera 2 weeks ago before my spring break vacation (2012), the main reason I bought It was because my previous Canon PowerShot SD950IS, wich I bought almost 5 years ago was starting to give me some trouble, I didnt wanted to look for any other brands because I was very pleased with my last camera.(I Bought it blue because it is 50$ cheaper than the black one)I went to the caribbean and took about 700 pictures (I Have only Erased about 10), I can Only say that it is a Great Camera, very easy to use, hundrends of different and usefull functions, From the most simple Mode for biginners, until totally Manual for pros, wich I'm Certainly not.The Zoom is Amazing , the only thing unconfortable is the flash, once you get used to it, you'll forget it. Totally recomend It.

Bought this to have a small camera with serious zoom. HD video really helped sell it as did manual mode.The zoom delivers. Quickly captures airliners overhead or whales surfacing on the horizon.Video is fine although Dolby sound would be welcome, but I get it.Size and usability are fine. Little things like the ergonomically angled rotating selection wheel to enhance thumb usability are excellent.Still becoming comfortable with focusing options. Continuous focus autoshooting hasn't really delivered, but I'm still working on it. Probably my ignorance/lack of skill.GPS works fine after acquiring a signal. Indoors, really?I'm reviewing my golf swing with the high speed video. Not any better with a club in my hands than a camera, but working on both.I really wish all cameras had the pop out, swivel LCDs like I had on a previous Powershot A620. SO HANDY!!! Overhead or on the tripod it is such a useful feature.Get this camera. It's terrific. Didn't give it five stars because it's not perfect, but I am really gratified by the purchase. Google "CHDK" to open up some more options.

Had a Nikon S9100 that I thought would be a great camera, only to find that it took horribly blurry pictures. Returned it and got this instead, and it has been fantastic!Pros- Great zoom. Sacrificed a 18x zoom on the Nikon for a 14x on here, but well worth it as it takes clear, crisp pictures consistently with the zoom.- Great for fast moving objects. Out of all the pics taken so far (over 1k) only a half dozen came out with any type of blur- Excellent colors - This is not going to be a DSLR, but for me, it comes real close. From macro images to landscapes, the camera produces perfect images- Fantastic controls. Everything you need to do with this camera is readily accessible.- Good price and using an S95 from a friend, I think I made the right decision with this camera as I have yet to tell a real difference. Even so, and maybe being a bit biased, I prefer the images on this camera betterCons- The placement for the flash and how it comes out is a bit clumsy- Not all of the features of the S9100 - wish I had a built in stitch feature for landscapes- Kind of slow - from picture to picture, there is a slower than usual delay. For me this is fine, but if you're looking to take pictures really, really, really quickly, then the s95 or a DSLR may be the next step up that you'll need.Overall, I am very satisfied. I know that within a couple of months, the price will probably drop with future canon models coming out. Regardless, I'm okay with the investment on a superior camera.

I bought this camera for my wife who was looking for a replacement for her old panasonic point and shoot. She carries her camera in her purse and this works great for that. The pictures are crisp and clean on all of the optical zoom levels. And I believe this is one of the few cameras I would consider using the digital zoom on because it removes pixels from the edges of the pictures first therefore limiting the amount of noise the zoom would introduce into the picture. We haven't used this indoors or at night yet.One thing to note this camera does support eye-fi cards in the camera firmware, which means it will stay on and has a little icon on the screen when pictures are uploading. But it won't let the GPS be on when an eye-fi card is inserted. This is not a problem for us as we don't use the GPS feature much due to the battery drain it can cause. I did note that I could turn it on with the eye-fi card inserted so I don't know if it will work or not.
