Very good camera for the money
on March 6, 2011
Posted by: Lori

Although I have only had this camera for approximately two months, I am very pleased with its ease of use right out of the box. The menu is very easy to understand, and pictures very easy to focus and snap. I had read the "cons" involving the battery life, but, as I have only had this camera a short time, I cannot comment on that; however, I did notice in the manual the suggestion for Canon batteries with a very extended life, and I plan on purchasing those before vacation. I have already recommended this camera to several friends. The camera is a bit larger than the "wallet" type digital cameras, but I still can carry it in my purse.
Pros: Good Low-Light Performance, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, durable, Bright LCD, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: Heavy/Bulky

Excellent value

The SX130 is to supplement our Canon SX100. We love the zoom capabilites of these Canons and the SX130 has an even more powerful zoom. Pictures are always sharp and clear. We do need to learn how to use the other camera settings to make full use of the camera. We gave both of our daughters an SX camera and they all receive very heavy use.
Pros: good battery life, excellent image quality, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use

Great quality at a great price

An excellent camera at a reasonable price.
Easy to learn controls in auto and manual modes.
Overall quality is excellent, image quality is excellent.
All this camera needs to be perfect is a see through view finder for bright outside conditions.

very nice camera
on March 4, 2011
Posted by: jkash
from Buffalo, NY
This is a very nice camera with a lot of professional features yet is easy and simple to use. It has a large, bright LCD screen and in the "auto mode" anyone can point and shoot great photos and videos.
The only things I would like to have seen with this camera is a storage case and rechargeable batteries. A charger and batteries are a must have with this camera and they will pay for themselves in a very short time. You can blow though a set of batteries in 1-2 days.
Pros: Good Low-Light Performance, excellent image quality, durable, Bright LCD, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: Missing features/settings, Short battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!
