    Exceptional camera

    The Canon SX10 IS is a six-year-old 10 megapixel camera that was rated highly when it was introduced. Newer cameras have higher megapixels but the optics haven't had as much noticeable improvement. That said, 10 megs is really all anyone needs and good for 16x20 prints. The best two features are the extended flash range (up to 15 feet) and the 20X optical zoom. The best high-quality pictures comes from using the program mode with the IS0 set to 100 and the picture mode to neutral (which produces natural colors). This particular camera was exceptionally well-maintained, operates flawlessly, and came with the manual, lens cap and camera bag. Overall, it was very good deal.

    Terrible experience! When I turned the camera on it was giving a "change battery" message and kept shutting off. I got brand new batteries(1220 and AA), swapped everything out, and I still keep getting the same error message! On top of that, I got a brand new SD card and now I'm getting a "memory card error" message on the screen as well! I was so excited just to be let down. Very disappointed and unsatisfied. Would not recommend!

  • Not having a good run...

    I bought this camera to replace my aging Canon A620. The 620 was really a remarkable camera, but it was starting to fail and I was ready for an upgrade, so I got this SX10IS. I did buy it used, so perhaps there were some problems present that wouldn't exist in an brand new version, though this one appeared like new. My biggest difficulty off the bat was the poor exposure, even with new batteries. The pop-up flash just didn't light the subject and surroundings as well as my old fixed flash did, so the picture quality suffers. I bought a flash for the hot shoe but haven't had time to teach myself how to use it properly. Still, I'd hoped the auto setting would have taken care of me like the 620 did for many years. I should mention that Canon had made several changes that made it more user-friendly in comparison to the older model. One of my favorites is a push button picture review vs. the slide button of old. And a tap of the shutter release button brings you immediately back to picture-taking mode. That only names a few positive changes. It's a beautiful camera - bigger and heavier than my old one, but I knew that going in. I loved the fully articulating screen so much that I insisted on having it again, and it's indispensable to me still. I have to get used to popping up the flash, something I consider an annoyance but again, I knew that going in. I am a hack photographer taking pics of family and friends in indoor and outdoor settings; the children challenge the shutter lag, which surprisingly feels longer on this newer camera. I'm just very unhappy with picture capture in auto mode (haven't used it much beyond that).

  • Cannon SX10 Camera

    Excellent camera and good buy. Research showed it to be one of the best on the market for the price. however it is a border line Professional camera with a lot of bells and whistles. Manual is about 286 Pages. I found out I am more of a "POINT AND SHOOT" PERSON. Sold it to a Professional Photographer. I bought a Kodak Z981. 15MXP and 26X Zoom. Auto stabilization, internal and external SD card memory. Shoots fantastic on auto. Still has a lot of settings for custom photography. Takes standard size AA batteries, best rated1800ma or more. Two dollars for NIMH batteries (3000ma) from china with free shipping. "Kiss" camera (KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID) I suggest when considering any camera read the on line owners manuals. Also check out the new Cannon power shot 180, 20MXP, 8X zoom, around $119.00 New

  • Perfect for backpacking

    The SX-10 costs almost nothing these days. It's a neat little super zoom Canon with a modest 10 Megapixels. Megapixels don't tell the story. I recently went backpacking and lugged along my 70D with fancy telephoto lenses. While I was gasping for breath with that heavy load, I had given the SX-10 to a friend to play with. He had a good time snapping away and using the great zoom feature on the camera that weighed only ounces while I lumbered around with a second pack carrying all my heavy gear. I felt like a complete ignoramus. The 70D is a great camera. Taking it backpacking with spare telephotos is sheer lunacy. I've included below three photos that my friend took in the back country with the lightweight camera that he'd never seen before along with a photo taken of our cat on the back porch. The photos are great. The camera is easy to use. At today's prices you can pick one up for almost nothing. Any questions?

  • Replacement for favorite

    Given as a Christmas present. This had been my son's favorite camera. His no longer worked. He preferred this model because it had batteries and when out and about for the whole day, he could change the AA batteries. He had no place to recharge the rechargeable ones. The shape is very easy to hold.

  • Canon SX!0iS unsung gem

    Purchased this camera to replace my SX10 that after 10+ yrs developed a lens error while shooting video. Love the camera's features compared to most P&S cameras and this carmera replaced the original perfectly. Could write a positive review for the SX10iS cameras but suffice that this replacement was as advertised, a great price and well worth every penny.

  • Easy to learn with

    My son is enjoying his first "real" camera. A bit of a learning curve after just using his phone camera, but its a good one to learn with. After 4-6 hours of use the batteries are spent, so make sure to get good batteries and keep spares in your case. Well packaged and shipped fast, thank you.
