Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot SX100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: Big Zoom
Summary: 4 Stars
My objective in buying this camera was to get a bigger (10x) zoom compared to what I was using (3x). This camera also has more pixels (8MP vs 5MP) than previous.
POSITIVES: Love the zoom, works well. Picture quality is excellent.
NEGATIVES: This camera is HEAVY! and it's big; while it fits in my pocket like my other one, it's not very comfortable. Buy a case & put it on your belt. It's also very complicated, and I know I'm not using it to max potential. I've just found a setting that works, and I'm ignoring the other 10-12 dial options; I just want to take pictures! It's also a heck of a lot faster than my last camera, so I'm relearning timing on motion shots (jumping horses).
OVERALL: Heck of a nice camera, probably more than I need but well worth the price. Wish somebody made a nice, simple, no frills 10x or higher camera; I'm sure I paid for a zillion things I'm not using and don't need.

Digital camera Review: Camera BreakDown
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought my sx100IS camera from Amazon in March and the camera has stopped working. To add to it, I have travelled overseas and cant get it repaired under US warranty. When contacted Amazon, they cant replace it. I am in a fix. This model seems to have issues, I have always handled it carefully and it stopped working after leaving it idle for couple of weeks. None of the buttons,zoom work now. I can shoot the photo though. I am figuring out what to do with this camera. Amazon can you replace my camera? :(Digital camera Review: Cannon PowerShot SX100IS
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed a middle of the road camera with macro capability. After searching a lot and reading reviews, I settled on the Cannon SX100IS. It was a great choice. The camera is loaded with features that make it very versatile. The macro function works great and is easy to switch to with the main button on the back. No fumbling through menus. Pictures are crisp and clear. Haven't found a down side to this camera yet.Digital camera Review: Canon Power Shot camera
