Update 8/27/10

We love this camera but the automatic lens cover does NOT open fully when the camera is turned on.


In recent times my wife found out that digital cameras don't swim well in salt water. She then went for an upgrade of zoom with the Canon PowerShot SX110IS Digital... Read full review »

Canon PowerShot SX110 IS 9-Megapixl Digital Camera with 10x Optical Stabilized Zoom

bydkozin Jan 6, 2009
42 Helpfuls 43 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Low price for features (for a Canon), good performance, image stabilization, 10x zoom
Cons Chromatic aberration, slow flash recycle, slightly soft corners, no viewfinder
Recommended it? Yes

It is difficult to "downgrade" from the mega-zoom camera to a compact point-and-shoot model. Having to forego 10x optical zoom after being able to zoom in dramatically is not fun.

I have always envied those that could take amazing photographs; observing these people has led me to the same observation: they use DSLR cameras instead of the easier to use point-and-shoot varieties. I was always intimidated by these cameras so never thought that one was for me-- that was until I... Read full review »

Pros Everything!
Cons A little heavy and bulky. 
Recommended it? Yes

I just bought this camera for my hobby and I'm amazed by this. The quality is amazing and you have many features to make your photos even better. (Changing color, light settings, color balance, even a fun fish eye effect!) The screen is big enough to see details of your camera and the buttons are... Read full review »
