to hard to operate
on December 28, 2010

This camera may have great features, but--no explanation on how to use many of the features.
The printing and emailing are NIGHTMARES---to hard to use or understand. I would not recomend this product.

Great features, but way too compllicated

I bought this Canon to upgrade from a smaller, simpler unit.. Unfortunately, the guide book is over 100 pages (you have to print it out on 8.5X11" paper) and impossible to carry with you as you travel. Main features are complicated to use and take a long time to learn. A succinct "intro" guide book would have been useful. LCD display is difficult to see in sunlight when composing a photo. So far, my best outcomes come with the "auto" setting.
Pros: Good Low-Light Performance, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, easy to use
Cons: Short battery life, Heavy/Bulky, Complicated controls/menu, no view finder
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.

While I thought to myself when I received this carmera on my 55 th B-Day. I'll never figure this out. But to my surprise. It was very easy and user friendly for old folks like me. Yep I love it. Just wished I had one sooner. For my family photos. I'm so in love 5 mons. later it still goes every where I go... My thoughts of concern is the life span on my alkiline batteries are not to great with in 2 days my camera won't work with out me changing the batteries. This getting to be annoying and costly. Any suggestions other than rechargeabl batteries.????But I do Love My "Canon Power Shot SX130IS."
Pros: Good Low-Light Performance, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, Bright LCD, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: Dim LCD, Short battery life

I have had my SX130Si for 3 months now. And I really do love it. It takes great pics, w/ the 12.1mg pixels it has good HD quality. Only bad thing about it is: 1) it did not come w/ a case, & 2) it uses up the batteries when using the flash.
Pros: Good Low-Light Performance, Nice features/settings, excellent image quality, durable, Bright LCD, Lightweight/Portable, Simple controls/menu, easy to use
Cons: Short battery life
I would recommend this to a friend!
