I am an amateur at best & was wanting great pictures of my infant. My canon powershot A75 was great for my now 4 yr old but it took 3 or so seconds to take the picture & I was missing that 1 second smile my infant would give before she looked away. I read reviews on this camera plus many other cameras & decided to go with this one, instead of the Nikon. The single most important thing to me was getting the best quality picture! I'm not concerned with how it works with the computer or the video aspect of it, so if you are buying it for that, my review won't be that helpful.
Pros: This camera definitely has crisper pictures with a softer look & snaps photos quickly, one right after another which is great. I haven't had to change the batteries yet & have used the camera a lot. The lighting is spectacular, even indoors & it wasn't even on the indoor setting. The manual was easy to read & provides much information on how to get the best shot in all situations. (Personally, I can't remember it all & only focus on how to get the best still shot, action shot & indoor shot).
Cons: The on/off button. I keep hitting that instead on taking the picture. Canon should have put it in a different place. The flash; it isn't automatic but it tells you to put it up when necessary (by then your one & only shot may be gone). When using the zoom at its max, the pictures are blurry unless your hand is perfectly steady (not mine! & I try really hard). I would suggest a tripod. It is a little bulky & bigger than my previous one.
I give 4 stars because even if I have to snap 6 pictures in 5 seconds, one at least turns out & I just delete the others whereas I missed the shot entirely with my other camera! My pictures are great. I need to work on action pictures so they are not blurry but I just read up on it last night & haven't had the chance to experiment yet. So, if you are a mom like me & want great pictures of your little ones, I suggest this camera! (Nikon may be nice too but if you already own a Canon, the features are very similiar & you'll adjust in no time).Get more detail about Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom.
