Digital camera reviews of Canon PowerShot SX100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: Conon SX100IS
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this camera for Xmas 2007. I love the simplicity of it. I am a point and shoot kind of picture taker. But it has a huge menu for those who want to have more control. I particularly like the 30X optical zoom. I take a lot of photos of grandchildren and am able to be out of the way but still get a great close-up.
My only "con" is the fact that it does not have a view finder. I like the stability of resting the camera against my cheek. All pics are composed using the digital window, though I must say this is a good size and with the face recognition feature is easy to use.
Digital camera Review: Date print
Summary: 4 Stars
I have this camera for weeks and I am happy with picture quality. This camera only print date on picture at postcard option (2MP)but not on large size. If you use canon printer, you may have option to print date. But who is going to print all digital photos with your own printer. My wife wants date print on pictures and finally I found a picture software that can add date on pictures. Thanks to smart people who create this software.Digital camera Review: Decent Camera, but high ISO performance is terrible
Summary: 3 Stars
Camera takes good pictures as long as you stick with low ISO settings. Even though you can set ISO up to 1600, for all practical performances 400 is the limit. The photos taken at high ISO are so noisy that they are unacceptable. If you don't take a lot of pictures indoors this won't matter much, but I take a lot indoors and in environments like gym, theater etc and I often prefer high ISO with natural light to flash.Digital camera Review: Definitely not for spur-of-the-moment shots.
Summary: 3 Stars
I drool over pictures that people take with SLRs, and I really wanted to be able to take pictures of that quality, but not spend the $600 to do it. I thought that with this camera's manual settings that I'd be able to play a little bit. Turns out it was too much fuss to take pictures of my kids. If I was sitting outside with them, I could get crisp beautiful close-ups. But inside the house in the later evening hours, I'd miss spur-of-the-moment shots. The camera would tell me to lift the flash. If I didn't lift the flash, the image was terribly blurry, which makes sense because the shutter was compensating for the lack of light. But if I used the flash, it was terribly over-exposed. And by the time I got the flash up, my daughter was already in the next room. So anyway, I learned that while I love how pictures taken with an SLR or a semi-manual camera like this one look, I don't have the time, the patience, or kids who sit still long enough to get pictures of that quality. So I'll be looking for a point and shoot that lets me catch those cute moments. I liked the camera's abilities, but it just didn't work for how I needed it.Digital camera Review: Disappointed by my Canon
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this product to take on a trip to Europe and I used the automatic feature almost exclusively. I was not pleased with the
quality of a large number of my photos. It was a big let down. I
had bought it to increase the number of megapixels over my old
camera and thought the quality would be even better than my old
camera. It was not even as good. Truman Kimbrough
