    Bought this for our granddaughter for her 16th birthday. She loves it! It's easy to use and produces high quality pictures you would expect from more expensive cameras. It is also small enough that she is comfortable taking it with her to school and events.

    The Canon PowerShot SX720 HS is a great camera for my travel needs. It is compact, light and with enough settings to shoot in almost any environment. The lens has a terrific zoom capability and the shutter speed is great. Overall, outstanding camera.

    This is a great camera! Way better than the point and shoot elphs not as great as the high end cameras. Easy to learn. Still small enough and light enough to carry in purse. Recently used in the Bahamas while on vacation not one complaint about this camera. Would definafetly recommend this camera.

    We absolutely love this camera. We bought it to use on vacations instead of taking our DSLR camera. This thing is great! It has an excellent zoom, shoots steady blur free pictures and the color is awesome! Great size, easy to use and quick

    Before purchasing, I reviewed and compared other point-n-shoot cameras with advanced features. This one had great customer reviews, so I purchased it, and I'm glad I did. I bought it just in time for my family reunion. I didn't want to schlep my heavy DSLR through the airports and on the beach, but I wanted the same advanced functions. This camera worked beautifully. Easy to use, great pictures -- although I'm still learning to use some functions. The 40X zoom is great to have, so are the options for auto and manual shooting, and Bluetooth/ WiFi connectability. Many professional features are contained in this compact easy-to-use camera. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

    This camera is awesome. I am no expert at picture taking but this has been so easy for me to use while at my son's ballgames. I get close ups even in the outfield that are clear and action filled. Easy to use and stays charged well.

    Like the compact size. The zoom feature is nice. Picture quality is good when lighting is good. Overall not bad. Low light photography is not that great. Wish it was a little less pricey

    Bought this camera because my son is class historian and needed a camera that was easy to use and small enough to keep with him daily at school. Easy to operate and takes good photos but didn't cost too much.

    This camera takes great pictures and is very easy to use. The telephoto pictures come out with great detail and vivid colors. The compact size makes it easy to carry around. This camera is great even for beginners.

    There's nothing like a compact point-and-shoot camera for catching those special moments; and with the 40 power zoom, this easy-to-use gem is a dream. Broke it in at a botanic garden, and the macro setting had the flowers jumping off the screen. Looking forward to vacationing with this little baby.

    I would recommend this camera. It’s easy to use and takes good photos. The setup is quick. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because of not having a cable to connect to my computer. Everything is wireless but the phone does not connect easily. I had to download the Manual and still could not get it connected to my home WiFi. I have to use my phone as a bridge which is not efficient.

    Fun Camera

    I bought the camera for an upcoming international trip, and I took a few pictures to see if I were going to keep it. The camera shows a lot of potential. I'm attaching a close-up shot and a max-zoom picture. So far the low light pictures aren't great, but I'm still learning how to use it. Overall I'm happy with the camera.

    I wanted an ultra-zoom camera that would fit in my shirt pocket, to replace my Nikon P510. So far, this has been an easy to carry replacement and I have not missed any of the capabilities of the larger camera.
