Canon PowerShot SX100IS Professional Reviews

  • trustedreviews reviewed the Canon PowerShot SX100IS and gave out”For a relatively modest price the Canon PowerShot SX100 IS offers a good range of features to accommodate both novice and more experienced photographers. Its long zoom range gives it added versatility, and its fast performance, superb AF system and high image quality are capable of producing excellent results in a wide range of situations. Its only disadvantages are its bulk and weight, and its poor high-ISO noise reduction. “
  • digitalcamerainfo reviewed the Canon PowerShot SX100IS and gave out”The SX100 IS has the added bonus of performing very well in low light. This camera would be an obvious choice for a relatively inexpensive 10x zoom camera, if it weren’t for the Panasonic Lumix TZ3, which has even better image quality.In general though, the PowerShot SX100 IS makes strides in this class of cameras. It’s a good option for consumers looking to upgrade from a 3x optical zoom. The Canon SX100 IS isn’t revolutionary, but, all features considered, its $299 price tag makes it an attractive option. “
  • Popphoto reviewed the Canon PowerShot SX100IS and gave out”The Canon PowerShot SX100 IS is a cute camera with some powerful functionality hidden beneath an easy-to-use interface. Despite the composite body, it feels good and solid in the hand and it produces very nice images at ISOs 80 and 100. The 10x optically stabilized 36-360mm zoom give a great reach from normal to supertelephoto, and the IS system works to keep the camera steady in both still and video shooting modes. Unfortunately, the low-resolution LCD can be very noisy during capture and medium and high ISO image quality is lacking.”
  • cnet reviewed the Canon PowerShot SX100IS and gave out”The good: First-rate photo quality; full set of manual exposure controls; optical image stabilization; electronic lens cover.—The bad: Too easy to accidentally click instead of scroll when navigating; no optical zoom in movie capture.—The bottom line: Though the Canon PowerShot SX100 produces excellent photos, other aspects of the camera–some performance issues and operational annoyances, to name two–dim its luster. “
  • photographyblog reviewed the Canon PowerShot SX100IS and gave out”these aren’t quite enough to have you anywhere close to dismissing the Canon PowerShot SX100 IS entirely. In fact overall the SX100 IS adds up to one of the more competent performers out there in this price bracket, boasting just the sort of shot-to-shot reliability you want when it’s potentially being passed around everyone from little Agnes to Grandma. I was expecting a performance that was OK and was pleasantly surprised when the Canon PowerShot SX100 IS exceeded it. So that’s another recommendation from the PhotographyBLOG crew for those wanting an all-singing, all-dancing big zoom compact, but without too many distracting specifications or a hefty price tag in tow. “
