Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this for trip to Alaska so I did not have to carry dslr camera that is very heavy. Like the WiFi part and very easy to use. Would recommend for beginners also.

To get in the Photography world, easy to use in automatic and then star moving to manual. The flash can be better the quality of interior photos is not as good as the one you can take with natural light

Went on a trip and didn't want to carry multiple lenses. This long zoom camera made it possible to travel light. Learning curve is not bad, just takes playing with the various elements.

After much research I determined this camera was for me. I wanted a quality camera with great zoom and easy to carry. It beat all my expectations. I love it!

I have had this camera about a month. I have taken lots of bird photos and photos of my young nephews. I like that I can download photos from my camera to my phone and to my computer wirelessly. I find going to phone is faster and easier than going to my computer, but I just purchased my computer so I learning how it operates as well. Hopefully I will become more skilled in using the camera as I use it more and transfer photos to my computer will be easier and faster as I master both items.

I am a beginner with photography! I love taking photos, that's one of my hobbies. This camera is great to start with! I recommend this camera. The photos come nice and clear.

Everything I could have asked for from a camera, it takes great Photos with 65 times optical magnification, along with fantastic 4k video !

Great camera! Excellent upgrade from a basic point-and-shoot, lots of exposure options, outstanding zoom, nice picture quality.

I love the ease of using this camera. The zoom is really good and it’s a great point and shoot camera. I only wish they could make one this good that fits in my pocket.

Camera both a screen and a viewer. The viewer work good when the sun is too bright to see the screen. Also the 65x zoom is very helpful.

I love this camera - it has a great zoom for photographing sporting events from the stands. It is easy to use and has lots of features.

After taking around 500 shots I’ve decided to return. Having used a film SLR in the past and later digital point and shoot camera and now iPhone XR, this was intended to be a better option for hiking and family photography. The only positive thing I have to say is the zoom lens. But this camera requires a flash to use in lower light settings, and the menu options and controls are very cumbersome to get used to. I have decided to exchange for a the more expensive mirrorless Fuji X-T30. It has mechanical dials on the body reducing the need to scroll through options on the display. I will be giving up the zoom capability unless I purchase a very expensive lens, but assuming the quality of the photos are great at a distant focus I will just crop in post-edit if need be. This is the second bridge camera I have tried and I just don’t think they are worth the money.

I have been waiting for a while and using my Canon SX50 which still takes beautiful pictures. However, my business has been expanding and I wanted to meet that expansion with a new camera. After the first picture you can absolutely tell the difference (the 50HS has 12.1MP and the SX70 has 20.3. I haven't tried the video but cannot wait to try all the different feautures....especially the 65x zoom. Definitely worth the price!

Excellent telephoto, good power, easy for anyone to use. Highly recommended as a first time camera.

I had an SX40 HS for 9 years and loved it. It was time to upgrade and a good review from Consumer Reports on the SX70 HS led me to buy it. It has some very good enhancements that eliminated some issues I had with the SX40 and it has higher resolution in the view finder and takes 20MB photos.

My only problem is it did not come with the cable to load my photos onto my computer. I've bought four cables and none are right. I even tried buying one from Canon and it was wrong. Right now I'm not using it much because I have to switch my SD card from the new camera to my old camera. I think Canon totally screwed up!

Very easy to use. I bought it to take to Africa. So far all my pictures have been great. I'm using fully auto since I didn't have time to learn all the features. The zoom has been fantastic. The pictures are very clear. I'm extremely happy so far.

This is my favorite camera ever! The optical lenses is amazing and every pic is super clear and precise. I use it for business and sometimes personal use. Just remember to get an SD card, a large one so you are not limited on photo and photo quality. The higher quality, the less pics.

I love this camera. It is replacing an older PowerShot that was about 11 years old. I keep it on Auto and the pictures turn out perfect. I also appreciate the eye viewfinder, which is not found on many of the new cameras. This is the perfect camera for me.

I like the camera but it is not good indoors. If it is very dark the screen is pixelated and sometimes you can't even take the picture. The zoom feature is great for taking outdoor photography.
