Canon - PowerShot SX410 20.0-Megapixel Digital Camera - Red

For well lit and daytime pictures this camera works well, It takes nice shots but under bright sunshine it doesn't do as well as I had hoped. At night forget it. It is very difficult to focus at night and esp when using the zoom. For indoor pictures I would definitely use a flash. Overall it is a good camera for the money. But if you want more control of the picture look elsewhere, this has very little control over aprerature and f stop.

While this is not as small or light weight as a number of cameras, it is smaller and lighter than most full sized cameras. Yet it performs like one of the big boys. Excellent long range zoom. Image stabilizer works well. High end for pixel count. Shoots HD movies. Plus it has the excellent optics and shooting programs that Canon is known for. We just got back from a trip overseas, and I couldn't be happier with the pictures (some of them shot on the fly as I was crossing the street). Shot excellent shots with just the low level available light inside several cathedrals, and produced clear first rate pictures. I only shot a couple of short movie shots, but they were of excellent quality. It lives up to it's name - Canon - and that's really saying something. The photo I am attaching was shot using available light and zoom lens .

I wanted to buy a SLR camera to replace the one I had stolen years ago. While researching them, I stumbled upon this camera. Long story short, I bought this camera and am very happy with it. The SX410 has 20 megapixels, which is as much as many DSLR's have. The 40 times optical zoom allows me to take photos which are almost as nice as those I would get from a DSLR camera and big lens. However this camera is much smaller and lighter than any DSLR, as well as more portable, and easier to use. I have attached photos taken with this great camera.

I bought it for my wife, to replace her older (palm size) Power Shot camera, she loves it. Takes great pictures right out of the box. Maybe now, that she messed up a few, she'll sit & read why some of her pictures could have been better. Overall fine camera, easy set-up, well worth the money

Nice size for travel. Pretty simple operation. Slightly larger than I was looking for, but did a good job for it's intended purpose. If purchasing again for travel, would downsiz one step. Again, thinking of size & simplicity.

works so great, so easy, so fast, perfect for ebay pics, I love it and for price don't have to worry and no buying batteries.. just PERFECT for old tech dummy like me

Sometimes it looks blurry through the screen, but the pictures come out clear. Long distance pictures come out very well. Highly recommend!!

This camera was recommended by a friend who does photography based on our price range. We are happy with the quality of the pictures. The battery lasted most of the day while we were on vacation and shooting lots of pics.
