Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Canon PowerShot SX260 HS

The camera meets my expectations, base on the information I had about the camera. I would have preferred a shorter User's Manual, focusing on features most people actually use

I bought this camera because of the good reviews. And it is a very nice camera with an excellent zoom for a pocket camera. However, there are two things I don't care for. One, the camera gives you very few shoot modes to choose between. Instead, the camera automatically chooses a mode, and if it isn't the mode you want, there is no way to change it. Two, the camera doesn't have a good macro mode. If you are looking to take close shots of anything, choose a different camera. If you are looking for a small, pocket-able camera with an excellent zoom that is easy to use with little fiddling, then this is the camera for you.

I love the camera, but when I got it I noticed it was a gray market camera. I contacted Amazon on their chat line and Anthony was very helpful. I was able to return the camera and get a new one sent out to me with free 1 day shipping. So now I will still be able to take this camera with me on our trip to Norway. He was very helpful in this matter. I hope the new camera has a USA warranty.!

After my dog passed away a couple years ago I regretted not having any pics of her from when she was a little puppy. Then a few months ago I found a tiny baby kitten in the backyard. I was determined not to make the same mistake with our new companion. At the time I had an older point & shot and tried to take some pics of kitten. Most of the shots didn't turn out that great. I pretty much had to turn on every lamp in the room to get a reasonably good shot. So I upgraded and bought this camera. This camera is amazing. I can take terrific pictures late in the evening with only one distant lamp on, and with the burst mode I can capture my new critters antics and she runs about chasing her mice and other toys.It also has a really nice zoom which I'm looking forward to exploring this spring/summer when it's warm enough for me to go hiking. I'll also get some exposure (no pun intended) to the manual/aperture-priority/shutter-priority modes which will shorten my learning curve when I make the leap to a DSLR.

This camera is so awesome. It even does some things that my husband's big Minolta digital SLR does. I took and pic of my son's cannon ball into pool and caught him in mid air......with no motion blur!! Still learning about all the cool stuff it does, but I really love that it's easy to use, and you can do custom settings for the advanced user. I got it as a gift and would absolutely recommend this camera!

I have had Sony digital cameras for years but this one leaves those in the dust. The zoom is impressive, the clarity is great, and the HD video is fantastic – yet all this comes in a delightfully small package. I also like the color options. There's really nothing about it I don't like, and it was worth every penny.

I did a lot of research on consumer reports and talking to individuals that had purchased different brands. Normaly I am a Nikon customer, but I wasn't happy with the quality of picture I was getting with my coolpix.The zoom on this camera is awesome! The pictures are crisp and bright...Even when taking pictures from a distance in a gym. The only thing that took me awhile to get used to is where the flash pops up on the top of the camera... It's where I would usually put my finger to hold the camera when taking a picture, but after a few times its easy to remember. The size is a little bulkier and heavier than I'm used to, but it's worth it for the zoom and picture quality. I've always bought other top brands so this is my first Canon and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another.

This has been a relatively easy camera to learn to use which considering the amazing amount of functions is quite something. It has taken some amazing photos and i have to say the ones that haven't come out well have been due to user error during the learning phase. The size is good for taking with you anywhere, it is heavier than my last one of equal size but not a real problem. The battery life is very good even with heavy usage of flash, the video does drain it a lot faster but I don't use that function too often although with the quality of the video I might start using it more! Talking of the flash this is something I saw in other reviews before i bought the camera and they were right, it is in a bad spot, it tends to be where you have your hand so when it goes to pop up your hand is in the way. I will get used to it and hold it differently but can be annoying. All in all great value for the money and a great option for me when I don't want to take my full blown SLR and lenses with me as this takes fantastic shots.

Before I had Nikon S6000, which was worked great. Unfortunately, I lost it few months back. So, I thought to give a try to another brand and looked at Canon, at the same time I was looked at same price range of the Nikon. I found this, (actually lesser then Nikon), I see it as more pixels and more digital zoom then previous. I see the quality is great. I dont see any issues, I feel the same comfort. But, the only thing I miss is, in Nikon, it was touch screen, and I can take picture by clicking the dispay screen, which was missing in Canon. But, over all I like it. worth for the money.

I haven't gotten a new camera since my Powershot A520 that I got as a graduation gift from high school. At the time, I loved that camera. But now I realize how very outdated it is. I can take awesome pictures thanks to the image stabilization! I can zoom more than 4x! I have a camera with three times the MP of my old camera! And it really does take beautiful pictures. I'm no photographer and I won't be selling any prints or anything like that, but for everyday use and for doing the tourist thing, this camera is portable and a joy to shoot with.

Its great, and small, but I do not understand how to use the GPS... The manual does not explain it..

I have been using a Canon super-zoom compact camera that I bought in 2008, and I have been happy with it but I wanted to upgrade to a newer image sensor and technology. I bought this camera at $200, and it's been solid. Canon cameras have two weaknesses, in my opinion-- longer shutter lag and a little bit worse battery life than some competitors. I have also found that when other people use this camera, the pictures tend to come out "soft" because they move too soon, before the lens has closed. That being said, the zoom with image stabilization works great and the basic settings are very easy to change if needed. The picture quality indoor tends to be a little washed out at times with the flash set to auto-- I leave it adjusted two settings lower than full flash to compensate for that (I just leave it set that way for all pictures unless my subject is 12+ feet away). Outdoor pictures are awesome.I have an DSLR camera for more advanced functions, but I think this SX260 is a good choice for most people. I bought one for my mom too as a replacement for her 7-year old Canon. She's been happy with hers too.

Bought this camera based on Amazon reviews. Needed a replacement for a 'pocket camera' for casual use. After taking a few hundred shots I must say I am very impressed with the sharpness of photos and the ease of operation. The camera turns on quickly and is quiet. The auto flash seems powerful in most situations where it activates. The very large view screen makes photo review easy. The stabilization feature works well except in low light situations, where the camera is not held steady enough. With an 8 GB card, I can take photos over weeks of travel or activities and download at leisure. The default setting is for 6 MB pictures - odd with all the high tech features, GPS tagging, etc that I will probably never use, that this camera's resolution default is for making large size paper prints. Who prints pictures anymore? I had to install the camera manual from the included CD, which also threw various photo programs on my computer that I didn't really want, in order to find out how to lower the resolution down 4 notches to .3 MB for email sharing. Or I could use Photoshop to crop and reduce size for individual pics.

I've had this camera for about a year and it still works really well, despite my having dropped it a few times. The definition is amazing.

I really hated this camera when I first got it. It's awkward to handle. The off/on button is where I wish the shutter button was; the flash is where I normally hold the camera. There just isn't a good place to hold the camera unless you're not in a hurry and have two hands free. I'm often juggling a pen, notebook and camera and the camera isn't easy to juggle. That said, I'm enjoying the quality of photos, and the ease of using some other features (self-timer, exposure bracketing) that I didn't use so much on my Power Shot A590. The first week I was pretty sure I'd return the camera but by the second week it had grown on me. I'm keeping it but highly recommend you get your hands on one before you buy.

If you ever plan on taking this camera out of the case, or god forbid somewhere where dust or sand might blow near it...this is not the camera for you. I bought this camera and immediately needed to return it for a new one because the flimsy plastic lens closure broke the first day I used it. I took the replacement on a trip to Arizona and some dust must have gotten into the telescoping lens components because it kept doing a lens opening failure and a forced shut down. Then it began to have issues focusing. I love canon but I will NEVER ever buy a camera from them if this is the shoddy product they are going to produce.

All my research on this camera paid off. This is a wonderful camera for the amatuer photographer who wants a little more bang for their buck.

The camera worked great. The pictures are sharp and just what I need. I did notice that the flash fired almost always on the auto setting, even though there was plenty of light. Also, when placed in profile sometimes the faces on the edge are elongated. Otherwise, this camera fit all our needs.

Pros:I bought this for my wife as a Christmas present this past Christmas. So far, we have not had to charge the battery with over 100 pictures taken.She uses the camera mostly and has had no complaints. I have used it some and the pictures and video are clear and sharp and true to color. The shutter reacts very fast.Overall, it takes great pictures for this type of camera.Cons:About the only thing I could say negative towards this camera is that when the flash is needed, it pops up from the top, left, front corner of the camera. It takes some getting used to as I have found that my index and middle fingers are in that location as I hold the camera to take a picture. But not a good enough reason not to buy the camera or even knock it down a star.

Let me start by saying that I am by no means an expert on cameras, but like most people I just wanted a camera that would take good photos, high quality video, and have good zoom range. This camera did all of those things and I continue to find new features and settings to take photos in all situations. I would recommend this camera to a friend and would buy it again if I had to do it all over again.

I have been using the camera on my iPhone for most photos for the last year because it is easy to carry and always available. This little camera will fit nicely in my pocket or purse, so that I am ready for that shot. A good friend, who was a photographer, once told me, "The best camera will only take a good photo if you take the camera with you." This camera will go where you don't want to carry a larger camera and take high quality shots.

Small and Light weight makes it easy to carry. 20x digital zoom works great. First use was on a Trip to Hawaii and the image stabilization produced sharp images even when shooting from a moving vehicle. Did not buy it to shoot video, but caught some great moments.

I purposely bought this camera and housing for SCUBA. After spending $100 to $1,400 on cameras, I was stunned to see how great the pictures and videos came out. The description of all the other functions of this camera are listed, but I think the first reviewer here nailed the camera's qualities. It is an easy point `n shoot camera with some extras. The GPS is a gimmick, but it does work well in placing your photos if you want to display them on GOOGLE Earth. However, the housing restricts that feature. The 12.1 megapixels are great for even posters or flat screen televisions (I use mine through my Blu-ray disc player for YOUTUBE). The function set, display, menu and the dial are all easy and intuitive. The zoom is remarkably steady (I recommend a small tripod). I've never cared for Optical Zoom, but the 20X works as well as any.This is really a remarkable camera for the price. I have yet to test the stereo microphones, but I can imagine that for the family filmmaker, this might be fun to watch and listen to on a television with stereo speakers. The software that is included is also very simple but important. The features are numerous and it's nice to have something that directly deals with the camera features other than just `Windows Movie Maker". If you ski, snorkel or particularly SCUBA, you will love this camera.

Pros: Read what others have been saying. Overall, this camera has some outstanding features. It's a bit clunky looking, but MUCH smaller than a DSLR and bridges the gap between my T4i and Sony WX-10. Extra-wide angle is a plus.Cons:- As others have reported, the Flash system is BROKEN on this camera. If you hold the camera naturally and the camera thinks it needs a flash, it has a motor that pushes the flash up. If you block the flash as it comes up, you get an error message that requires taking the battery out to clear. Solution? I haven't found one. They should have spring-loaded the flash. I've had this happen a dozen times or so.- Second star comes off for the lack of a Panorama setting. Canon, if you're listening, GIVE US IN-CAMERA PANORAMA PROCESSING! Why? Because EVERYBODY ELSE IS doing it and we want it.
