User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars a dependable easy to use camera
My wife and I have been using this camera for about three months now. We have used it outdoors and indoors on still subjects and those in motion. It has performed flawlessly. By using the different modes such as indoor,kids and pets, etc. you can take great perfectly exposed pictures. For example, by using the indoor mode, we rarely use the flash, and the pictures turn out much brighter than if we had. I believe this prolongs battery life as well as avoids the slight delay after the flash is used. Ths controls are easy to use and understand. Yes, it is not the slimmest lightest camera made, but those chracteristics are not important to us. Features such as the incredible optical zoom, face recognition,the use of AA batteries and others are what is important to us and what led us to buy this camera instead of others that are currently on the market.
4 Stars Miss the viewfinder; like the screen size
I bought this to replace a Powershot A720 IS. This is a little heavier but the big screen is nice. However, not having a viewfinder is a problem at times in terrifically bright sunshine. As always, I resent having to go online for manuals–the A720 complete manual was included and thus could be easily carried with me if I needed a reference. No longer is this done.
5 Stars Digital Camera
This is our first digital camera. It came quickly and in perfect condition. I am still learning how to use it, but my photojournalist daughter pronounced it “a really terrific little camera.”
4 Stars Very Good, but needs a viewfinder.
This camera is a good value. It is light and compact, takes great pictures and videos, and is easy to operate. If it had a viewfinder, it would be great. But, having to use the 3″ LCD display as a viewfinder is very awkward when using it in sunlight. In sunlight it can be almost impossible to see anything on the LCD display. I like the camera, but this is a major drawback.
3 Stars good camera… for the money
I have only tried this 1 day so I am taking it back and trying a different one. I already had the s5is and loved it but I thought having a smaller camera was what I wanted. It just doesn’t take as good a picture and it is slow. I want a good zoom smaller body and a NMHi battery. The sony w150 I have takes better clearer pictures at dusk and mid afternoon. and the canon S5is takes better in the daylight and indoors.The sx120is is a good camera if you only want one camera and want it kinda small and I do like the lens cover better than a cap. also you can see the screen ok in the sun but the color is not really correct. It maybe true that cameras should not go above 8mp as well because I have had better luck with clarity on the 8mp and lower cameras.
