Product Reviews

All things considered, this was a Great Deal!

As a photographer, I usually reserve important pictures for my SLR. However, there are times that I just don’t want to take my expensive camera out, nor do I want to lug around all the accessories and lenses.I looked for something more compact and lightweight than my big SLR, but something that wouldn’t sacrifice my ability to snag great shots when I needed to. The Canon PowerShot camera was the answer!The Canon PowerShot SX520 and the PowerShot SX530, are both awesome cameras with a few differences to consider.• The SX520 has a 42x Optical zoom w/no Wi-Fi;• The SX530 has a 50x Optical zoom with Wi-Fi connection and tools…Other than that, size and functionality are the exact same.Both the 42x and the 50x Optical Zooms are incredible. The Optical Image Stabilizer Technology that accompanies the lenses insures that you will always take great shots.• The 42x is equivalent to a (24-1008mm) zoom lens.• The 50x is equivalent to a (24–1200mm) zoom lens.For that same zoom capability in a SLR you would pay a ton of money!Because of the small size and versatility, I find myself in more situations to take incredible shots, therefore this camera is quickly becoming my camera of choice when I go out. The camera has the same manual aperture and shutter adjustments as a SLR, so you won’t lose the ability to control the outcome of your shots.The Zoom Framing Assist Technology is a great feature. The frame assist makes it easy to “track” your subjects while using the extreme telephoto feature. If you have never used extreme telephoto without a feature like this or a tripod, then you know what I mean (sSHaKyyy BuSiNeSsSs)! The Framing Assist Technology solves that problem.Although I never considered shooting videos on my other cameras, I find that the 1080p full HD video on this camera has come in handy a few times while at a ball game.OH, and you can take this camera into professional ball games without being hassled. Most folks don’t know that many stadiums don’t allow fans to bring SLR’s, or cameras with long telephoto lenses into sporting events. Stadium attendants say… “the right to use a professional grade camera in the stadium, is reserved for the sports press”. Well with this camera, you don’t have that problem. You can take it into any stadium you want, and you will have the capability to capturing the sports images of your dreams, and zoom right in on the player’s faces when they make those game winning shots! You can even zoom in on the cheering fans located on the other side of the field, capturing their facial expressions, at that perfect moment!For the money, you can’t get a better deal. In fact, I would have easily paid a hundred dollars more for this camera.[…]. Thanks, for Reading!

Talk about zooming power!

I am floored at how underpriced this camera is! I absolutely LOVE it! The image quality is unbelievable, and extremely detailed. Don’t believe me? Check out the picture I took last night of the moon with this camera!

It is easy to use and fit into a medium size purse

Just used the camera for a 5 week trip through western Africa. It is easy to use and fit into a medium size purse. The zoom lens is excellent and took some exceptional photos of wild animals. I was pleased wit how crisp and focused the photos came out when I downloaded them onto my laptop. Perfect for travel.

Great camera - except …

This camera takes great pictures once you read the manual and realize how to use it correctly. I took a few of my husband and son yesterday and they look good. I used the automatic setting and the shots are well lit and well focused, no problem. I also used the delay ten second timer and included myself in one shot. It did a good job :) I just wish the memory card / battery cover were not so flimsy. It looks like it might fall off momentarily.

Awesome camera

This camera is incredible for the money. The zoom on it is a 200x digital. As far as wide-angle cameras go, it’s decent but if you’re trying to take pictures for Real Estate purposes to make rooms appear larger, I would get one that has a wider lens. I think this camera meets the minimum requirements for a wide-angle lens. It takes incredible pictures.

Quality for beginners

Great product for beginners. Takes good pictures and is light and easy to use. Battery life is the only issue. One of the batteries I received from the seller was bad. When I notified them they instantly put a new battery in the mail that day. Great customer service.

Wifi is impossible to figure out.

I bought this camera because it would connect to wifi. I am not sure what world the software was written in, but we tried for an hour and couldn’t figure it out. I have a current mac mini and to install the software took an email chain to Cannon to figure it out. I finally got images to an IPhone and thought I was done. The second time nothing would connect. After 3 resets it still doesn’t work. Pick a different camera if you want easy wifi.

Great Camera

I have yet to use a bad camera made by Canon. The Powershot SX530 looks like a hybrid between a Point and Shoot and a DSLR. The image quality is great, and the camera is very light and portable. I shoot mainly with DSLRs, but I have been a fan of Canon’s Point and Shoot cameras for years, and I have a few of them, including the Powershot SX530. The Powershot SX530 has a 50X zoom capability, which is great, but if you’re going to zoom out that far, make sure you use a tripod. The image quality is very good, and the color is pretty accurate. The camera’s greatest feature, in my opinion, is that it can be set to Manual mode. Some of the Canon Point and Shoots only have Program mode, which allows you to set only the ISO, but this camera lets you set the ISO, aperture, and shutter speed. So if you are used to shooting in Manual mode with a DSLR, you’ll be happy to know that you can do the same thing with this camera.This is a great camera for anyone.

Great Camera - Good price

I love this camera - everything can be automatic or I can make a lot of changes to the look of the photos I take. Love it! Did I say I love it?

Turns itself on automatically

Optical photo quality is very good. Digital zoom is OK>>>> Major user problem <<<<<<<<: There is a standard ON/OFF switched…

I Like, Love the pictures

I Like, Love the pictures! but problems with the WI FI. NOT easy to connect! I still have not been able to do it! Need a techno kid I guess.

Best digital camera I’ve owned.

Takes great pictures. I dropped one star for the lack of view finder.

Real Trouble

Very hard to get files off of camera onto other machines. Very tedious. I have an 8 minute video on here that it is basically telling me is 6 minutes too long to download.

One Star

Stopped working after 31 days

Great, but…

Here’s the thing: this is an amazing camera. For a beginner, this is perfect! The zoom is so fantastic.. It’s a bit harder to manage when you’re really zoomed out.

One of the best camera ever!!!

This is far most one of the best camera I have owned. It takes beautiful wildlife pictures. Most of the pictures I have showing are from afar.

Thrown in box

No care was takin sending item. Thrown in box. No manual but camera works nicely

Camera died within one month

Camera will not power on in less that one month of use. Have tried multiple batteries. Have looked online for different ideas (as apparently this is a common issue with Canon…
