Review: One of the best for its price point. - The Canon PowerShot SX130IS was my first camera, and it still one of my favorites. It has the power and features available in larger, pricier cameras but the portability to go anywhere, and it's quite resilient to damage. So, then -- list time: PROS: -Compact and portable, will easily fit into a pocket. -Excellent Zoom, puts my Eos Rebel T3i to shame. Doubles for a pair of binoculars now and then. -A Macro function, which is a special point of interest for some. It won't match dedicated macro lenses or cameras, but having it certainly makes a difference in your photos. -Around 9000 other features. Not literally, but this camera can handle a good variety of challenges and be set to perform quite a lot of functions, from portrait to landscape shots. -For its price point, it takes good photos and video. Pricier cameras would take better photos and video... but you would have to go more than double on the expense for that to happen. -There aren't any weird tints to your photos with this camera. -Runs on two AA batteries, which is great when you're traveling. -Having a wrist strap, while common to many cameras, is still a pro when the camera is small enough to fit in one hand. -You can control the entire camera with your right hand. CONS: -You better have a lot of AA batteries. Battery life, depending on use, can range from 3-7 hours... unless you are taking photos very quickly or taking video, in which case two hours would be impressive. -Ten minute video length, max -- you can take as many videos as your memory card allows, but none of them will be longer than ten minutes. -If dust gets into the (irremovable) lens (it will,) you will know. And may the force be with you in trying to remove it on your own. -Some people won't find the video or sound quality up to snuff. Additionally, trying to play a video on some computers will often necessitate a download of the Combined Community Codec Pack. Windows doesn't like MP4s, for some reason. -It's a little slow, especially under low-light conditions. -The LCD screen is built-in to the camera -- it doesn't flip out. -It's also your viewfinder. This particular Powershot is my favorite of the series. It's never let me down, it can go anywhere with me, and it lets me photograph moths and landscapes with equal success. It has a myriad of features, and most of them aren't novelty gimmicks. Especially for it's relatively low price, this is both a great travel-camera and an excellent beginner camera. It won't disappoint you.
Review: Perfect for the wannabe photographer - I hemmed and hawed for months about getting this or a higher end camera and for the price I ended up with this one. I am so glad I made the purchase I did. I love to think I'm going to use all of the settings and options to make artistic photographs but it rarely happens. However the options are there for when I do have the patience and the time to think about what it is I'm going to do. The on screen directions help tremendously for those occasions since I can easily forget what the different settings are designed for. The quality of the pictures are fantastic and the handling of the camera feels natural. This was a camera purchased to take pictures and video of our new baby. We knew we needed something that would preserve good quality pictures and take video when we needed it. Both have been excellent. The video is very clear, movement is smooth and the audio is great. There are no tinny sounds or problems with the mike in any way. The options for various settings allows us to put it in "squirmy kid" mode and leave it there for when we need it. I hesitated for a long time because of all the negative reviews on the battery life. I wanted a camera that took standard batteries but, obviously, didn't want to change those batteries every time I used it. I have to say I have not had an issue with the battery life being short, and we take waaaaaayyyyy to many pictures. That being said I do use rechargeable batteries and that might make a difference. But, if I remember correctly the cheapo batteries the camera came with didn't do so bad either, they went fairly quickly but it wasn't the same day or anything. Bottom line I'm glad I saved the money and got this camera, it's got everything I need, extremely user friendly, high quality and is fairly durable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb mini all-rounder
*by C***T on November 1, 2010*

I bought this camera mainly because it was reviewed as having good pic and video quality, it has HD video, and it takes AA batteries. So far it's been superb all round. The AA batteries bit is a really big deal for me. I so nearly bit the bullet and got a camera that uses a proprietary battery pack -- as, tragically, they almost all do now -- only to discover, when trying to get 2 spare packs, that they're basically unobtainable! This makes such a camera useless for me, as on a long trip (e.g. weekend hike), once the battery is dead, you're stuffed until you find a 110v outlet to charge from. I understand that AAs are more bulky for a given charge, and presumably that's why the SX130 only takes two. I'd personally take a larger handgrip to make room for two more batteries, but the bottom line is, it doesn't really matter. Just take along spares, and change them out as needed. Use NiMH batteries for best life (conventional batteries like Duracells simply can't handle the loads of a digital camera), but in a pinch, you know that more charge is almost always going to be easily available. And when rechargables wear out, getting new ones is a snap. So anyhow... I basically love the camera. It's compact and light, and easily fits in a jacket pocket, so it's always handy for a snapshot. It takes great pictures, and superb clear 720p movies. The stereo sound is good, but with built-in mics, wind noise will always be a problem if there is much wind at all. You can zoom while filming, but the noise is quite audible on the soundtrack (though subtle enough not to be really annoying, mostly). I've started using a separate sound recorder for projects where I care about the live sound. The reason for dinging one star is the one niggly point I've found to date: video capture is limited to 9 mins 59 seconds per clip. This is a hard and consistent limit; I guess it's to avoid the 2GB file size limit. It's never been a problem for me so far, but I could see where it could become an issue for some types of filming. Battery life isn't great, but like I said, just carry two or three (or ten!) sets of spares, easy. For the record, here's what I got on a single set of Eneloops, taking continuous 10-minute video clips until it died: battery warning came on at 80 minutes; batteries died at 110 minutes. One 16GB memory card stored 85 minutes of video, averaging 186 MB per minute. I'm using a 32GB card now (class 10), and it works great. In case you're wondering what it records in the .MOV files it captures, ffmpeg tells me that the video format is: Video: h264, yuv420p, 1280x720, 22301 kb/s, 29.97 fps Audio: pcm, 48000 Hz, 2 channels, s16, 1536 kb/s So overall, great. I do wish there was more choice of cameras taking standard batteries; but this one fits the bill nicely.
