A outstanding camera!I'm heading out one day for my 5th embed in Afghanistan and this should be the perfect camera. In the over and done with few days I've taken 500+ photos and am totally impressed by the prosperity of operability and clarity of photos. On "sports" mode, I can be taking photos as I hike; the 'movie' mode is awesome, and even the night shots are remarkably free and crisp (like an Afghan evening!)
Yes, it would have been strict for Canon to include their 180 page manual, but frankly I got sufficient info from their little pamphlet to get me started. Then I downloaded the guide to my laptop, so I've got it if I need it.
This should be a better camera than the typical SLR; no lenses to change in adverse conditions, and no bulky lenses to execute. Hint: buy decent rechargeable battery set; you'll be taking a lot of picts with this camera!
Now I'll in fact be able to 'get the word out'. S/F
Dr Z. fly-past of Canon SX20is
Sheerest easy to use. My only complaint is that the instruction manual is on a disc which can be downloaded to a processor, but with no printed manual, looking up something on the fly is impossible. I was gifted to print the manual (4 pages on an 8 1/2 x 11 film) and that can fit into my camera bag (folded). It is a chore to do, however. The petite wheel on the back of the camera can sometimes be accidentally turned while searching for buttons, but not a big question. Picture quality is VG for an entry camera and the 20x zoom is great. All in all, fine worth the price.
this camera is fearful!
I am so thrilled with this purchase. I don't need to go see a professional photographer anymore for photos of my family. No more spending HUNDREDS of dollars at a professional anymore. I can do it dexter in my own home for lots less! This camera does it all. delightful, clear, crisp pictures!
AND, I was in the process of buying my first cuttingly, I went to see my dream house three hours away. because of this camera, I was expert to see the peak of the roof on the third floor so closely that I felt like I could reach out and approach it while standing on the ground. I saw every imperfection of this "hallucinate house". I decided it needed to much work and it wasn't significance the money they were asking for it. Thanks so much Canon for serving me with a major financial decision! I did not buy that house. If I had and later rest out it needed all those repairs I'd be in debt forever!
Well benefit the money!!! I love this camera!!
Loved it
I delight my Canon SX20IS, my first megazoom camera. It takes awesome pics and peace of use is good. Auto mode is good for most cases. Mega Zoom works solid. Photography for me is m babies photo. And i love when i get cute pictures from this camera. still knowledge about features it has and Video quality is again very adequate and you can zoom in and out during recording. In-House shots are also breathtaking.
Certainly WORTH IT!!!!
Following looking at a bunch of cameras, reviews, prices and features, and definitely decided to go with the Canon SX20IS. It finally arrived today, and I couldn't shelved to take pictures. It was very easy to get it started, I didn't oblige to look at any manual to start taking pictures. I read some reviews of population saying that the camera doesn't take good pictures in sports car mode, well, I didn't have any problem taking stupefying pictures in auto mode. All my pictures came out clear and Dialect right nice.
I tested out the video recording, and was very impressed with the eminence of the video (of course HD), and the voice. It really picks up on everything round you.
Many reviewers also stated that they had problems with the lens cap falling off, I can't say too much on every side that yet, since I just got the camera today, but from what I can see, it holds immovably to the lens, and you can actually hear the click when it is attached.
All in all I'm hellishly happy with my choice, and can't wait to see what else this camera has in retailer for me.
I'll keep you updated.
I would definitely recommend this camera to personality, for the price, you can't get a better deal ;)
