Nice shots, but really delicateNovember 21, 2008 I have loved this camera since I bought it in July 2008. I have been able to get nice shots, the zoom is great, the macro works on "Auto" mode. It is not so fast taking shots. And lately the wheel has become stuck or really hard to rotate, the left click on the wheel is not working anymore, so no more macro feature, no searching previous photos is possible anymore. Since the wheel is used to select or use most features, the camera has become really hard to use. So if you are really careful I think it could work fine. May be I'm not the most careful of the people but I know electronics I use last long, and I wasn't lucky with this camera on that matter. I haven't tried to contact customer service or send it for service, but I will and I'll let you know.
Another winner of a camera by Canon!November 20, 2008 I'm a Canon fan, no doubt about it -- and this camera is yet another reason why. Canon continues to make high quality cameras, packed with features, for a reasonable price. I previously owned a Digital Rebel SLR (300D) and a pocket Powershot S410. The S410 was starting to show its age, and I was tired of dragging out the big 'ole SLR just to take a random picture or two here or there. I decided it was time to replace both cameras with a single camera that can offer me a lot of the best features of both of the previous cameras.
The 10x zoom on this camera is fantastic. This is a longer zoom range than I had on my normal "walk-around" SLR lens on my Rebel. It will definitely come in handy when walking around outdoors. The 9mp sensor creates nice quality photos. Yes, the noise level in higher ISO photos can be noticeable, but frankly that is kinda expected in most smaller cameras with smaller sensor sizes -- it's the nature of the beast. The size of the camera is great. Its larger than my S410, but still small enough that I can toss it in my jeans pocket and walk around with it if I want. The screen on the back is huge and quite nice. Its also nice to have a 640x480 @ 30fps movie mode, though I highly doubt I'll use it very often.
Awesome for AmateursNovember 19, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this camera because I wanted something in between a portable camera and an SLR. The SX110IS fits this requirement perfectly, and it delivers great bang for your buck.
PROS: Awesome picture quality Equally awesome large LCD screen Even more awesome 10X zoom (In my mind, this is really what makes this camera compete with all those expensive SLR's) Easy to navigate between functions Small enough to fit in your pants pocket or your ultra awesome flourecent green and pink fanny pack.
CONS: Pictures often come out blurry unless you have the flash up or unless you're in bright sunlight (and using the flash never seems to capture images in their true color). This can be pretty frustrating.
Charge time on the flash is about 4 seconds. This didn't seem long to me when reading reviews before buying this camera, but when you absolutely need to take a picture - the flash may leave you hanging.
Happy with my cameraNovember 18, 2008 Works excellent, is no easy like others, but you can make more versus a light user's cameras. It's perfect for my job, I can control the camera and store the pictures directly on my PC.
Only one desire, the size, its no easy for travel, but no big deal
Excellent budget superzoomNovember 15, 2008 I've had the SX110 for about a month, and I highly recommend it. It's a bit bulky, but makes up for it with the 10x zoom. While not an SLR, the camera does feature a full manual mode where you can set focus, aperture, and exposure time. The digital image stabilization does a great job of keeping your photos blur-free too.
The only downside is that the CCD is a bit noisy. You can't crank the ISO up above 400 without suffering serious image quality losses.
I've posted some sample pictures taken with the SX110 here: http://digicamtech.blogspot.com/
