After reading about this camera and looking at some other reviews I settled on it although I have always had a Nikon Coolpix before. This was less expensive but seemed good. I wish I would have spent more money and bought another Coolpix. First of all much of the time when I turn the camera on the lens cover doesn't open fully so I have to push it open with my finger and have fear of scratching the lens. Next, it is not nearly as user friendly as the Coolpix. My Coolpix had lots of settings for beach/snow/nighttime,dusk,dawn,backlight, close up and many other things. After having used this Canon for almost two weeks in New York City and visiting my grandchildren in New Jersey I really got frustrated.The booklet that comes with the Canon is nearly worthless. With my past Nikons I got a nice full book that was really helpful. I am going to when I have time go online to the Canon website and see if I can get some help in finding out if this camera has some of the features that I named above as they are important.Unless I can get some help in finding features that I need if they are even on this camera then my next camera will be another Nikon Coolpix.

since i just got this camera the other day and have just barely started using it, this isnt really a "product review" that said, i do want to mention a couple things ( i must feel like talkin'!) over the past 6 months i have been seriously updating my cameras and have purchased quite a few, some i bought locally and some here on amazon (which BTW is a GREAT place to shop for 100's of reasons!) a couple cameras i took back pretty quick and those were mostly oly's ( wanted the tough underwater gig and gave up with oly) i was actually replacing an old canon elph that never died just got so far out of date that i REALLY wanted more than... 4 pixels! but i will say that that camera NEVER NEVER failed me, and it was fast as a whip at taking the shots, i donated it to goodwill so i am certain someone is STILL havin' fun with it!ive bought 4 little point and shoot set ups and canon BY FAR is the best for ME, i cant even imagine why anyone would want a point and shoot that doesnt turn around and shoot AGAIN like lightning and canons DO. every one, every time. the others... sony. nikon, oly etc... JESUS you have to wait for the thing to figure out what its doing i guess, who knows! so FOR ME if it cant shoot and shoot and shoot NOW then forget all the other bells and whistles PERIOD when i am out shoooting i want what i see to be captured and frankly whatever i get i can edit and work with if i have to just make sure I GET IT, thats the cameras JOB (JoyOfBeing) and the rest is MINE!so this little baby is a GREAT CANON and its got some fine zoom goin' on too AND (and im big on this too) its a FUN COLOR! a tealy green and i love THAT about it too! it flatens out and gets right in the neat little case i have for it and its quick as a whip. THANK YOU CANON!Feb 15 2013this is still my main camera and i will say that i am OVER the top pleased with this thing! i took it with me on my first ever "cruise" to alaska and got over 800 of the BEST shots in the world as well as some pretty fabulous video. the "live" feature is priceless and now i dont even ever want to USE a camera that doesnt offer this. i love love love it! i shoot about 500+ pics a month in all sorts of "weather" conditons and this camera never fails and always amazes me.

Made in Japan and amazing! I was looking for a compact camera that is quality built with lots of manual controls. Canon came through with this fantastic camera. I'm used to the super compact Canon Elph line and was somewhat skeptical about going larger. I'm also accustomed to professional DSLR's but wanted to have a small compact for convenience.The Canon Powershot SX260 HS is a great compromise since it has an amazing 20x Canon UA lens with an amazing wide angle zoom 25mm - 500 mm (in 35mm terms), Canon Optical Image Stabilizer and the ability to record Full HD movies at 24fps. Wide angle is important especially in tight spaces. The macro lens also did a great job focusing close up.The pictures are very vibrant, clear and sharp. The DIGIC 5 processor does an incredible job creating incredibly sharp pictures at 10fps high-speed burst shooting.This is a solid built camera with a predominantly metal outer shell compared to the all plastic competitors. This camera will withstand the rigors of everyday life and will keep on shooting. It has many magical features and GPS.Compared to the Sony HX20,Panasonic ZS19,and Nikon COOLPIX S9200 this camera takes far better pictures, easier to use and built super solid.The negatives are the pop-up flash that gets in the way of handling the camera with my big hands, lacks one-touch Panorama mode (although it has Panorama assist mode), no HDR and it does not come with a touch screen.Overall, great easy to use camera, high quality Canon UA zoom lens, wide angle, solid built with a lot of features and pretty compact. I am very satisfied with this beautiful artistic tool.

I have now taken well over 200 photos and shot several hours of video with my new SX 260 HS and the one word that summarizes my feelings about this camera is incredible. The zoom is absolutely amazing whether you are shooting still pictures or video. I have NOT experienced high pitched sound some users are hearing during video playback, either on my computer straight from the SD card or via my TV using an HDMI cable. That was a huge relief since that apparently is a deal-breaker for many users but the sound on my video is excellent.Last night I shot an entire tennis match by attaching the camera to a small tripod then tying the tripod to the fence and just letting it run for a couple of hours and the detail it captured was incredible. You could easily pick up the ball movement even on fast rallies. Even though the camera was probably 20 feet from the closest player you could also pickup quite a bit of dialog. I then set up the tripod on the court and shot slow motion video of myself serving which was eye-opening to say the least. This is a pretty unique and useful feature for breaking down and analyzing sports activities and was one of the key reasons I focused on this camera in the first place.I also really like the quick single button video record and stop button on the back of the camera which makes it much easier to capture impromptu scenes. The low light performance is probably not as good as a DSLR (I don't own one so I don't know for certain) but it seems quite good to me and certainly better than any previous digital camera I have ever owned including my Panasonic FZ-20 I've owned since 2006. I used to be wowed by my FZ-20's 12x zoom lens which was awesome for outdoor photography but this 20x beast is even better and this camera is about 1/4th the size of the FZ-20.There are so many different shooting modes and options I am still learning them all but the included CD with a User's Guide is very comprehensive so I'm confident I'll eventually learn what I need to know to get the most out of the camera. The start up time seems very responsive and about the same or quicker than my older Canon A700 or my wife's Canon newer SD1200. To sum up, I am extremely happy with all aspects of this camera and would buy it again in a heartbeat, even if the price were higher than what I paid.

I've had this camera for 14 months. Today the screen has black lines all through it. Called Canon and they want $147 to repair it. I paid $284 for it 9/2012. Since I've seen other reviewers mention this problem, I believe after years of using Canon products, it's time to move on. Just beware of this potential problem.

In preparing for my Ten year Anniversary Cruise I wanted a new camera to capture my memories. I had an old Canon powershot that had seen better days but I was comfortable with the brand so I decided to get a new version. Wow! It was like I upgraded to what the experts use! I took over 1000 pictures. The clarity of the pictures is fabulous. Even in a moving bus I was able to take incredible still shots. The color in the pictures is so vibrant, but the most amazing part was the 20x zoom.. It actually zooms all the way to 80x! I found myself using it as a telescope whenever I wanted to see something too far away! And of course then I snapped a picture. It especially takes well-lit pictures even when the flash is set to "off", where other cameras would be too dark. The settings are easy to use and the picture review is fantasticly modern. It's also a nice size to fit into a pocket, I wish it was a little lighter but that zoom lens is worth it. To film a movie you just push the red buton on and off, no searching for how-to. So easy. I definitely got my money's worth here! The only downside is that there are SO many options with this camera that I am afraid I will never know all of them. Now that I am back from vacation I will have to spend a little more time learning about all of the tricks available on this camera from the how-to CD. But if you didn't feel like doing that just stick to the "auto" setting and it's got it all.

Had read a lot of reviews before deciding to get this one. We weren't disappointed as the quality of the camera taking pictures and videos exceeded our expectations. To us, it was quite costly on the expensive side, but well worth the features and output of our photos. So clear in quality and resolution was outstanding. Although there are additional features on the photo that we'd have to read upon to take advantage of the feature, the basic usage was simple. The only thing that throws us off on the camera is the location of the flash; when we set the camera to Automatic, the flash button stays disabled, but when we change the settings and want the flash to work (if our hands are positioned on the top left hand side of the camera, it will startle us as an unexpected place for the camera to pop up). Other than that, this is a fine camera.

As many other reviewers, even folks who typically prefer SLRs, have said, sometimes it's just more convenient and spontaneous to use a point and shoot than a full-blown SLR. You just pull it out of your pocket or bag and go. I bought this camera to replace a Canon PowerShot SX210 IS which I bought a couple of years ago and was never really happy with. It took fairly good pictures, but somehow was not that fun to use. The SX 260 was the perfect replacement. It's basically an update of the older model, but in my opinion, is a vast improvement. The pictures look much better to me, and I rarely use anything but the Auto modes and presets. The combination of 20x zoom and great image stabilization get fantastic shots. We were recently in New Orleans for JazzFest and took a lot of pictures far from the stage, zoomed in to a single performer and I was shocked by how good the images were. It was daylight, so take that into consideration. It also is very quick to be ready to take multiple shots without waiting a long time. The wide angle shots also look better to me, as the SX210 seem to blur those shots considerably at the edges. I mostly use presets for certain conditions, like low-light shots, as opposed to effects, but they all seem to work well if you're into that. The video looks ok, but we don't shoot much. My wife and I typically take hundreds of pictures when we go on trips and have been since the days of film. We never bothered with a film SLR either, but when we look at shots from the film point and shoot days, there is no comparison. Digital wins hands-down, especially on this camera. Often many of the shots we take are multiples of the same scene to make sure we get at least one good one. (We sure didn't do THAT in the film days!) With this camera, we usually have more than one good one from a single series and it's even harder to decide on a keeper. If you are looking for a great quality replacement or improvement from your current digital point and shoot, or an alternative to your SLR, this camera deserves your attention. After around half a dozen digital point and shoots over the years, I feel like I finally found one that measures up.

I use this as my walk-about pocket camera. The zoom is flippin' amazing, and the quality of the images it turns in are VERY good. It is JPEG-only (Bummer!) so you lose highlights in clouds and can't bring up shadows like you can in a RAW image, but hey, its a pocket camera, right?PROS:Amazing zoomFits in a pocketcovers its own Lens when you shut it offit has the normal canon setting modes: P/T/V/Myou can set aperture and speedHigh ISO (over 1000) looks ok.did I mention the zoom?CONS:The on/off button is a little temperamental when I want to quickly reopen it - but that could just be me.It is a-l-m-o-s-t a little small for my older, larger hands.Summary:It's the best point-and-shoot I've ever owned. Yes, I prefer to shoot with a Canon 5DII or III. But I sure prefer slipping this guy in my pocket to lashing a DSLR around my neck. And the best camera for a photo? THE ONE YOU HAVE WITH YOU! And I always have this one.Canon - give me RAW and its perfect....

I was so excited to receive this Canon SX260 after reading rave reviews from owners and digital camera websites. I wanted a camera to slip into my pocket (sort of) that would take good quick photos, and this seemed to fit that description. The camera is blazing fast to start, focus, shoot, flash, reshoot, wireless transfer, and just feels well balanced and sturdy.Too bad the pics are soft and fuzzy. I took over 400 photos in the first couple of days: inside, outside, macro, telephoto, portraits, candids, and some on a tripod to verify what my eyes were telling me.Regardless of lighting conditions, this camera just does not take crisp photos. On a tripod to reduce the possibility of movement, the photos are beautifully color balanced, just nothing is sharp in the photos. I let other people look at the photos on my computer and on my HDTV. The same comments over and over, "I can't figure out where the camera is focused. There isn't any place that is sharp."I'll continue to use my old Sony DSC-H5. Slower (a lot!), with lower resolution (7.2MP), but the photos it takes are much sharper and stand-up to zooming and cropping for prints. I took some test photos side-by-side with the H5 and this SX260. Hands down, the H5 takes better pics, even if it is slower to use.Maybe it is the new sensors?

First off, I am a Canon user par non.I own Canon cameras exclusively.I have had this camera for over a year now, and have taken it around the world on my travels. Hot, cold, rain, sun, cloud, inside outside.I shoot everything. Nature, people, buildings etc.The camera is slow to focus, sub illuminates inside or low light shots, has mediocre focusing. I compare all this to my gold standard. The SX100.My SX100 will still outperform the SX260, which is truly sad.The SX260 does perform well, in full sunlight outside shots, but thats not why i bought it. I wanted a good all around pocket camera like my sx100.This is not it.I find my self needing to use two cameras. The SX260 for outside sunny days and the SX100 for everything else, including indoor.If you have never experienced the sx100, try and grab one at a deal from fleabay.You will be impressed and understand what i mean !

I bought this camera having had great experience with canon. but this one was a complete lemon. on several occasions now, all past the return date, the lcd screen has gone blank. actually I can see it if it tilt it just the right way in bright light. so it is really dim. I've searched the net for solutions. one solution that seemed to work for people was to set the shutter speed to 5 second manually, press the picture button to start taking a picture, then pop the battery out while the shutter is open. of course this didn't work. beyond that now I have to try to wrestle with canon. what a pita!

All the reports of a high pitch noise been recorded on video mode are true. I bought this camera at Best_Buy and it had the same issue, this problem is extremely widespread and if you see the camera been sold at a discount is probably because the store knows they have a problem and are dumping them on uninformed buyers. Do not underestimate this noise, it will ruin your wedding video for sure or any video shot in a semi-quiet environment. Shame on Canon for not issuing a recall. Sadly there is no way to test the cameras been sold on internet stores and they are not easy to return.Also the battery life on this camera is dismal even if you are not using the GPS function or autofocus mode, if you turn the GPS you will be lucky if you get 200 pictures with one charge. Another annoying quirk is that this camera does not create automatic Panoramic photographs, it simply does not stitch them together, that is just plain dumb.UPDATE: I exchanged the defective Canon SX260 for the same model, the new camera produces no high pitch noise but the Canon SX260 still introduces an unusually loud white noise, sounds like a "waterfall" on the background, it is always there, even when there is music or dialogue. It never goes away. Compared to my Sony Cybershot, the Canon SX260 background noise is easily twice as loud what it should be. Because of this, I still cannot recommend this camera for shooting in quiet environments. In my humble opinion the microphone automatic "gain" is set too loud compared to other digital cameras.Walllmart has taken all their Canon SX260 off the shelves around here, I wonder why. BB is still selling them and may be re-selling the defective ones that everyone has returned including mine, Canon does not allow them to resale open-box so they may very well put them back on the shelf with no warning. I cannot speak for Amazon, their cameras could be fine but others here will have to testify to that.

I want to preface that I am not a professional or very dedicated photographer. My review is for people like me: love photography, use mostly scene settings, some manual tinkering (aperture and shutter speed priority) and love to take scenery and wildlife pictures. I am in the market for a smaller camera to take to my hikes/travel etc. to replace my Lumix FZ28 which was stolen on my recent trip to Costa Rica. I already have a Nikon D5100 which I love and takes great pics, but it was just to heavy and bulky to take it along. I purchased both a Canon SX260HS and a Lumix ZS19 to try out because both their specifications seem comparable and I trust both brands. I took pics side by side with these two cameras, and here are my observations:1. color: panasonic colors were generally cooler with more green/blue vs. the canon's warmer colors (yellowish tones) for the same scenes and lighting2. the HDR features of the Lumix are amazing for high contrast/bright background.3. the zoomed pictures for the Lumix were clearer (less blurry) than the Canon's (I took pictures of a power tower and some distant hills in the late afternoon light)4. the most important consideration for me was the ability to focus. I took pictures of flowers and foliage and the Lumix clearly outshone with the feature of the touch screen (I could tell it to focus on a particular petal or detail just by touching the image on the screen) whereas I ended up with a lot of out of focus pictures with the Canon.Note that I did not try the GPS feature of the Canon since it is not that important to me.In conclusion, even the expert reviews talk about a better image quality of the Canon SX260, I decided that for my purposes, I prefer the images that the Lumix ZS19.I am going to return both cameras today and order the Lumix ZS20 instead (because of the promotion, the price of the ZS20 is the same as what I paid for the ZS19, so the GPS feature is for free!!!)

I'm constantly flipping my point and shoot digicams for the latest and greatest within my budget. My recent purchases were the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 and the Canon PowerShot SX230 the SX260's predecessor.I use the camera mostly for eBay still photography, family photos, and indoor concert footage and snaps. I don't have a discerning eye for photography so all these cameras performed equally well for me, with respect to picture quality. I rarely use the presets and fancy photo filters unless I need them in special situations. And I never use the GPS function; if the SX240HS were available in U.S. Amazon, I'd buy that one.Unlike real photographers, my primary issues with a camera are how it feels in my hand and whether the functions are intuitively accessible via menus. I prefer the Canon menu system and buttons, over Panasonic's. I like all of the the SX230 functions but ... I couldn't comfortably park my fingers in order to easily adjust the back dials. The front of the SX230 had just the scratchy logo to hang onto. Owners of SX230, you probably know what I mean.Canon solved my pet peeve, with a rubber grip strip on the face of the SX260. That little piece of ergonomics VASTLY improved my user experience with this camera. My enthusiasm for this baby has been restored.I attached comparison photos of the SX230 and SX260.

I bought this camera prior to going on a tour of India. It survived the dust and performed well in many difficult situations involving motion and low light levels. This is my third Canon digital camera and it is by far the best. The 20X zoom and image stabilization allow for great closeups while standing at a comfortable distance from people, animals, etc. I experimented with the HD video and was pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the sounds and video. The battery life is accurately rated. I only had one battery which I charged each night. I shot a total of 20 GB of photos (at maximum resolution) over 17 days and never experienced a low battery. My previous digital camera had a view finder and a video display that could be moved to different angles. I thought that I would miss these features, but I didn't. This viewfinder is brighter and sharper than my previous camera's and can be viewed at a fairly extreme angle to get difficult shots. You have to learn to grip this camera from the bottom and sides because the top corners are occupied by the flash and on/off button. I used the "auto" setting for most photos unless I wanted to force a flash. The combination of great still photos and HD video in such a small package is amazing.

I've had Canon powershots for many years. Left my last one on a return flight from Alaska and forget it if the airline will make an effort to get it returned to you. I've heard it's finder's keeper's for the cleaning crew. So anyway...I tried a Sony Cybershot. But it was slow on start-up, and erasing images, and just slow overall. It took great pictures though. So, I decided to give that one to my daughter and ordered this Canon SX260. I took it recently on a trip to Utah and Yellowstone. And all I can say is WOW. It performed beautifully. Start-up is awesome for those quick shots you don't have much time to prepare for, the color saturation was incredible, it even did good on quick moving shots through the RV window! Took handheld pictures of a full moon with the camera set at 80x zoom, and they were incredible. You can make out the craters in finer detail than any other camera I've ever had. It is small, compact, sturdy and solid. Buttons and programs are easy and explanatory. The Sony camera is better on the panorama feature versus the archaic style stitch-assist on the Canon. But I found I didn't use those landscape pictures much. Also, the "smooth skin" mode on the Sony is superb in comparison to Canon's similar feature. Wrinkles disappear on the Sony's - not so with the Canon. I guess you can't have it all. But I do not regret getting this camera!

Canon Powershot SX260 versus SONY Cybershot DSC-HX9vI purchased the Canon Powershot SX260 HS as an upgrade to my SONY Cybershot DSC-HX9v. Neither is meant to be my main camera but rather I carry a camera this size on me at all times to capture everyday phenomenon. Most photos look OK no matter what camera you use, but I am critical of the photos that I take of wildlife. It is important to me that the animal, especially their eyes, are sharply defined. Often I shoot in (P)rogram mode or (A)perature mode but for this comparison I shot only in super Auto mode. I took photos of several outdoor subjects, living and still, alternating both cameras. I am going to address only three issues:Zoom - of course the Canon (20X zoom) edged out SONY (16X zoom), bringing the subject a bit closer, but the difference was not spectacular.Image Quality - SONY HX9v was a clear winner. Sony images were sharper with the SONY. Canon's images always had a soft, blurred look.Color faithfulness - colors in the Canon photos appeared to be bolder and truer.I'm taking my Canon SX260 back. The unimpressive gain in zoom and the poorer image quality convinced me that Canon did not get its act together for this particular camera.

This camera is OK. It would be MUCH better if it had come with an instruction booklet! Yes, that would help!!! Instead, it comes with a DVD, which is not exactly handy to use. I don't want to have to refer to it every time I have a question about how to change settings, etc. It does take good pictures, but I would like to change some of the AUTO function settings, and have no idea how to. It is a good size for carrying with you, and you can tell by its weight that it is of good quality materials.

After reading more than 200 product and customer reviews about this and several other cameras, I decided that more than anything else I really wanted the 20x optical zoom and I really wanted the quality of photo I've come to expect from Canon. Nevertheless, I was very worried about the whining noise other reviewers reported hearing during video playback. Although this is primarily a photo camera for me, I still like to be able to take videos of some things; and I especially like being able to do it with the same camera that I use for photos; because I don't want to carry more devices than is absolutely necessary. If you can't already tell, I'm a point and shoot kind of guy. That said, I know a few professional photographers, so I recognize the difference between a good photo and an average one.The good:This camera takes beautiful photos.The 20x optical zoom is spectacular (I've even taken pictures of Saturn, Mars, Venus, and Jupiter).The low and variable light focus is shockingly good with few pictures ruined by blur.I have not heard a whine during video playback.Although the zoom motor can be clearly heard during very quiet video, most of my video shots consist of the kids playing or singing at a school performance, or other somewhat noisy activities. Under those circumstances, even the zoom motor is completely drowned-out.The bad:The zoom motor is clearly audible in video playback if the activity being shot is quiet.I don't particularly like the positioning of the video record button (but I'll learn to live with it).In short, I don't know how I ever lived without 20x optical zoom! I love it.

Wow! I love this camera. I bought it based on the reviews here (thanks to all), and am not disappointed. It takes great photos in all kinds of light situations. I have taken shots inside houses, during parties when the lighting is very dim and it turns out great! Everything from landscape photos, (I bought this for mostly hiking and camping photos), to inside group photos and pet and sporting events. Many different options on the settings. I love the toy camera, fish eye etc...effects for fun, black and white, sepia, emphasis on certain colors. It is a very easy to use camera with great options. The menu is easy to understand and use, even my husband, who just wants to point and shoot can take great photos on the easy setting. Worth the price, this is my Holy Grail camera. I can't think of one thing I don't like about it.I also purchased a extra rechargeable battery with it here. DuoGreen,duogreen CANON NB-6L NB 6L Replacement Battery - High Quality Rechargeable Battery with 1 Year Warranty and a Protector Case 1000mAhit works great, and holds a long charge, would highly recommend it.I am so happy with this camera, if anything happened to it, I would repurchase it!

Never dreamed that image stabilization would work for hand-holding the camera at 80x and the images are NOT blurry. And that is without a flash to make it crisp! Very easy to use different settings, move to viewing, back to shot taking, easy to turn flash on/off, etc, etc. Just a smart design. Yes, the flash pops up info your left hand. After a couple days of use, I just held it bit off to the side and the flash was a non-issue. Beautiful video and easy to use with dedicated button to go into movie mode, or just touch shutter button to leave and go back to regular photos. Macro lets you get up super close to that flower photo and it's actually in focus! No complaints. And just buy that extra 2 pack of batteries so you have no worries that you're good for a day roaming around on vacation.

Bought this camera based on reviews here and elsewhere for a trip to national parks in the four corners area. I absolutely love this camera!! I wanted something that had enough zoom and other capabilities to take good pictures without lugging around a big heavy camera. I used the zoom capability up to optical limit and pictures were fantastic. It took me a few days and a little experimentation to learn the full capability of "Live" mode but once I did, wow!! I could easily make adjustments for shots that had combination of sun/shade and enhance the colors to take some spectacular shots. This lead to some days were I took 200 - 300 pictures as I played with different effects.The Case Logic DCB-302 is a perfect fit for the camera and the front pouch has room for 2 extra batteries and 2 extra memory chips. Bought 2 extra batteries and was glad as easy to go thru one in a day or two when I was taking 200 - 300 shots per day. Very please with the combo pack that included two- 1200 Mah batteries and other accessories from Butterfly Photo. Bought three Transcend 8GB Class 10 SDHC memory cards which worked great as well. Camera with all of these accessories cost ~$350 on Amazon and were all well worth the price.

Yes, it is a dark pink (magenta.) I like the photos and it zooms nicely. I have a 4 year old who does not like to pose for pictures long and this was a good camera to capture those quick moments. I purchased two additional lithium batteries which last SOOO much longer than the one it came with. I also have a 32gb sd card I purchased on amazon that wouldn't work in an older canon camera that works perfectly with this power shot. I was able to take pictures of Jupiter and the three moons around it, It also took very clear pictures of the moon that I can zoom in and see closer. The flash pops up and can be difficult when you ask someone to take a picture and they have their finger over the flash. But I would definitely recommend. I read a lot of reviews before finally giving in and buying one.

I bought this camera for my wife with high expectations - I already have Canon SLR and with this I was hoping to get something handy which will take Canon quality decent pictures but with added 20x zoom.Unfortuantely even in P mode, the pictures come in with slightly yellowish greenish tinge! I've tried all kinds of settings but it hasn't helped.I was able to get better pictures in Shutter Priority (Tv) and Aperture Priority (Av) modes without the problem - but that's not what I wanted from a camera for my wife.Other other major design issue is the pop-up flash - it sits right at a place where you would hold the camera at - don't know how it got thru Canon's QA!Overall, If I knew these issues - I wouldn't have bought the camera.

When I travel, I take a lot of photos in low light conditions (mostly art work inside churches, etc.) and I have gone through about 3 cameras in the last few years looking for one that would do a good job on this. This one is perfect: I even took some photos in some very, very dark catacombs on Malta and they came out beautifully.It's also good for normal lighting conditions, of course; it focuses quickly and its video capacity seemed good to me. It's got a fairly wide angle for a basic camera and I was pleased with the landscape photos I took.Very, very happy with this camera!

Finally an idiot-proof pocket camera that combines a long zoom and amazing performance at concerts. I don't intend to take pro-quality photos but love taking some for personal memories, but always struggled with getting photos blurry or performers overexposed. Not with this camera! I was seated in the nosebleeds for a recent arena show and still got great pictures in focus of performers on stage! The camera also performs beautifully taking pictures of Christmas lights without need of flash. I have yet to explore all the various settings, but already find myself constantly saying, "Ican't believe how great these photos are!"As for battery life, so far so good. Spent about 4hrs wandering around New York City in the cold, turning the camera on and off, messing with the zoom, and previewing photos, and the battery meter never dropped from full. So it seems great for the average tourist's needs. I do keep GPS turned off, too.

I bought the camera a few months ago and loved it until the screen went dead a couple of weeks ago. The pictures taken were very nice and all seemed working perfectly. Now very disappointed : the camera can still take pictures but without the screen it's just a shot in the dark..

Takes great pictures and easy to use. I don't like the placement of the pop-up flash. When you are not thinking about the flash and are holding the camera normally the pop-up flash comes up and hits your left hand finger which disrupts the shot.

I've used my camera both inside and outside, in bright and poor lighting, I've taken photos of my family, my dog, landscapes (while moving in the car), and even close-up shots of flowers. I've done both stills and video and I've been very pleased every time. My only big problem is that the flask is placed right where I put my left index finger when holding the camera and it pops up unexpectedly when on auto, then doesn't go back down until you change the settings or turn the camera off. The images is a bit hard to keep stable if you've zoomed in fully on something way in the distance but the image stabilizer does help, and I had to go back to my manual to figure out how to play back the video, but all-in-all I very pleased with the images I've got and would recommend this camera to anyone who wants something small enough to fit in a handbag (or even you pocket),light enough to travel around with and get fantastic shots.

First let me say that I have a Nikon D80 that I love. However, I really wanted a compact camera that could fit in my pocket easily so that I didn't have to tote the big Nikon everywhere. After tons of research, I first tried a Sony and returned it after one day because the pictures all looked like water paintings. At that point, I was worried that no compact camera would give me the picture quality I was seeking and accustomed to with my DSLR. Oh, how I was wrong.I played with my new Canon Powershot SX260 HS and instantly fell in love. The pictures are amazing sharp and clear, and there are plenty of controls for those who are used to manual settings in DSLR cameras. The videos turned out nice and clean also, and although I can hear a slight sound when I zoom, it does not take away from the video or overpower it in any way.There are lots of fun settings in this camera as well. You can set up photo ID's of your loved ones, and this camera will automatically pick them out in a scene and focus on them. I have an active 4-yr-old, and so far, I've not gotten any blurry or unusable shots.Overall, I am very pleased. I took a picture of the moon last night without a tripod, and I could see the craters in the moon quite clearly. After seeing my photos with this little camera, my family and friends all started posting their large DSLR cameras for sale so that they could switch out for this compact camera. That says a lot as to the picture quality. I urge people to try this one - you won't be disappointed!

I purchased this as an upgrade from my Panasonic 10x which I have owned for about 4yrs. Has a 20x zoom and the stability and colors especially in low light are great. The stabilization feature works wonderful as well, no more fuzzy pictures if I moved slightly.Also very easy to use and comes with a clear stick on for the viewer. I recommend this camera!

Good camera. lots of options. it is a little too hard to completely master it. I am still learning but it works nice with auto, easy or scene without a hard learning curve.Love the zoom! It works great but it works best outside on sunny day; if you use it indoors in a distance that is not reached by flash then you'll notice a fair amount of noise in the picture.My biggest complain so far is the battery life. Took around 100 pictures and battery died!. My previous canon sd550 lasted at least twice as long. I did not record yet but I am worried about battery life in that. Just purchased a 2nd battery to make sure i don't get stuck if I am in a long trip (i imagine a Disney trip and no battery...)My last issue is not very important but I was a little surprised to find out that the wrist strap does not adjust at all; I like using it to make sure camera does not drop but as it does not adjust or tighten then it is kind of useless.

After a few months.1. It's primary feature is the 20X optical that allows for some good photos of birds and wildlife. I've had some great results from such a small, inexpensive camera.2. Defeat the digital zoom. It provides nothing but an unstable image. With optical defeated, you can run it accurately to max optical (getting optimum resolution) and then crop your images later, as desired.3. This camera is way too complex; especially without a printed manual.Trying to find what you want in a .pdf on your computer is not user friendly. Without a hard copy to carry in the field, your learning curve is way longer.

This PowerShot has very quickly become my favorite camera to carry when I'm traveling, whether it's around town or across Europe. It's just the right size for the side pocket of cargo pants/shorts, although I think I'd hesitate to carry it in a shirt pocket - not because it doesn't fit, but because I'm afraid the weight might help it fall out more easily than a lighter camera.I'm mostly a point-and-shoot kind of guy, but occasionally I want to do a little more, and the PowerShot SX260 makes it easy without having to be a nuclear scientist.I'm 66, with less steady hands than I used to have, but the stabilization on this camera is amazing. Even at 20x, most of the shots are good, and if I'm shooting something I care about at that distance, adding my old monopod is all it takes to make a 20x shot perfect.I don't use the camera for shooting video, so I can't comment on some of the complaints about noise, but for beautiful, clear, versatile still photography in the mid-priced range, this camera is a winner for me.

I went to the store to specifically buy this camera. I was so disappointed when the LCD screen went out after about 34 days. I contacted canon and they wanted me to send in the camera, but who wants to go days/weeks without their camera, especially around the holidays, so i took it back to the store. They exchanged it for me. I noticed that both cameras have difficulty when trying to view the photos and with the second one when i tried to delete photos it froze and eventually corrupted the files on my memory card. The camera is slow to take pics and the video quality is poor. I thought that maybe I just got a lemon the first time, but I have a feeling its just a matter of time before the new one breaks just like the first. So this one is going back too. I buy a new camera ever 1-2 years and they have all been Canon, this is the first time that I've ever really had an issue. I'll prob still buy a canon, just not this one.

Have only had camera for a week so this is a brief overall view. Using on AUTO the images are outstanding. Back lighted settings use auto fill flash and the balance is outstanding. The 20x zoom is spectacular and motion compensation seems excellent. Low light exposures also seem to expose very well. Overall the camera is great. It is a little thick as the lens structure protrudes from the body, but I guess there is some sacrifice for 20x. The camera seems very well made and finished and is quite heavy for it's size. I am looking forward to exploring some of the many power controls and settings.

As 'advanced amateurs' my wife and I have owned numeous Canon cameras and camcorders, as well as several other makes over the years. When we learned of the new Canon SX260 with a 20X zoom we immediately checked it out and then purchased one through Amazon.com. It arrived just before the April, 2012 Washington DC Cherry Blossom Festival began so our first use was to record the beautiful cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin. We both own earlier Canon ELPH's, an SD700 and SD850, which are great little 4X 'point & shoots' for carrying with us everywhere we travel, so we wanted to see the comparison in quality, as well as to utilize the greater 20X zoom capabilities of the the SX260 which coincides nicely with my Canon 20X Vixia HD camcorder.The quality of the zoom photos is excellent and the IS feature is very effective. All our first day shots were 'hand-held' but, as with any longer zoom, a tripod always assures better quality. Photo 're-cycle' time is very good and the larger LCD screen is nice but we missed the Viewfinder of our ELPH's as the sun sometimes made the LCD hard to see. The SX260 is slightly larger than our ELPH's and the position of the 'pop-up' flash interferes slightly with a good finger grip on the top left of the camera. We have not used the GPS feature as yet but wished we could have had it during a recent trip to Italy. We are still exploring other features so may 'update' this review later.Overall, we are extremely pleased with the new SX260 and would highly recommend it to people looking for an easy to carry small camera that has considerably more than just a minimum capability.

Purchased this camera when it first came out. Liked it so much I bought one for my daughter. Took camera on Alaska cruise. Saw all these "camera buffs" with their long lens and very large HEAVY gadget bags. One night we were all comparing shots taken. My camera took the best pictures. I could zoom in and quickly get that shot of a whale's tale hitting the water. I even got a shot of ice caving off a glacier. The pictures could easily compete for spots in a travel magazine. There is a learning curve to take advantage of all the features this camera has to offer but well worth the time.

The SX260 is a highly desirable camera in its class, one of only two long zooms on the market that I can recommend. Image quality is of course limited by any small-sensor camera, but this unit is the pick of the current litter for a 20x true optical compact with a GPS. It is a clear notch better than the still very good Panasonic ZS-20, though the ZS-20 runs about fifty bucks less.If the GPS is not important to you and you can live with the "tiny"??? 16x zoom, the Panasonic ZS-15 is faster in operation, and captures equal or perhaps slightly sharper images at ISO 800, and saves you $100 as a bonus. Panasonic LUMIX DMC-ZS15 12.1 MP High Sensitivity MOS Digital Camera with 16x Optical Zoom (Black)I've done a longish review of the ZS-15, so I won't repeat it here. No one is making a mistake with the SX260 (or its predecessor, the SX230 (same sensor) that I still use regularly). Canon PowerShot SX230 HS 12.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 14x Image Stabilized Zoom 28mm Wide-Angle Lens and 1080p Full-HD Video (Black)If the GPS and 20x is what you want in a compact, this Canon is a clear notch better than the current Nikon, Sony, and Fuji attempts. Three years ago, a 20x compact this satisfying didn't exist, regardless of price.

I have been using this camera for 5+ months and I can't stop taking pictures and videos. The quality of this camera is just outstanding and it takes beautiful pictures. The camera shoots amazing HD videos and it puts other cameras to shame. I have recommended it to all my friends since they all seem to love it. Canon has another winner in their hands with this camera. I simply cannot stop taking pictures when I have this camera in my hands. You don't need to be an expert at taking pictures with this camera, you just point and shoot. One thing that I did not really like was the battery life which I think in my opinion could be better but that's not really a problem for me since I always carry extra batteries with me wherever I go. Great job Cannon with this camera!

I have a decent DSLR but I wanted a nice point and shoot for a cruise vacation I took a few weeks ago.i wanted a high powered optical zoom along with a built in GPS. I took both cameras on the cruise but I never took the DSLR out of the case. Day and night shots both were excellent. Zoomed photos were astonishing even without a tripod. Several people remarked what a nice camera when they used it to take my picture. I am not ready to sell my DSLR yet, but I won't be buying another camera for a long time.

NOTE: My previous review stated some strong concerns about a high-pitched audio frequency coming through all the videos. We exchanged the first camera, but the 2nd was not pronounced enough to ding the review significantly for. I have revised the star rating to match, though I'm not convinced it's gone...Let me preface by saying that I've been buying and recommending Canon digitals for over 10 years. In fact I still have my old silver PowerShot S60 stowed away in my drawer, and the SX260 HS is probably our 9th Canon. I'm starting to wonder if that's actually a GOOD sign or not, as the longevity of every new model seems to suffer...After our SX230 began putting out more and more WEIRDLY colored photos in P-Auto mode (in full, healthy sunlight no less where Canons have always shined), we started shopping other brands. There's a lot of good cameras out there but between the Nikon's noise, and the Sony's dull brown colors we always returned what we had and waited for the next in the SX series.Now that we have it, my wife has been really happy with the photo quality in most situations, however the AUTO mode which advertises as being "so intelligent" misses the mark on MANY occasions. Especially around kids and low light. Every kids photo comes out blurry, so inevitably I return to P mode and manually up the ISO or force the flash to compensate.The video of the last couple generations has been fantastic in HD, although there is a bit of ambient audio hiss in this model which we don't notice in our older videos.On average though, I can recommend this camera.

I got this camera before the summer wedding season so I could have something of good quality, yet somewhat discreet so I didn't look like I was the official photographer. The SX260 HS met my expectations. The quality of the wedding photographs is nearly as good as what I saw from the professional photographers.Good:- Picture quality is just a notch below DSLR. I've gotten a lot of compliments on the photos from this camera.- Fairly compact, though not as small as some PowerShot models.- Image stability is quite good, even with high zooms. I tried some outside scenic shots that came out very crisp even with no tripod at high zooms.- Very extensive feature set.Bad:- As others noted, the flash pops up where I like to put my finger.Overall I am very pleased with this purchase.
