I chased this camera for a couple of months on Ebay as the specs looked fantastic. 35 x zoom and 14Mp plus Canon's excellent software, it has lived up to my expectations and beyond. I haven't yet exlored its abilities fully - there are so many that it will take months - image stabilisation is great, resolution superb, HD movies, in camera editing and playback are easy to use and very effective. Altogether an incredible buy at a bargain price. Happy man with his new toy !

I bought this camera to replace my old kodak bridge camera to use for work. I have had it for a while now and taken quite a few photos. It gives excellent results although It has two disadvantages firstly, the flash has to be manually raised which I find a little anoying to say the least. Second, I find the grip a little on the small side for my adult hands. I'm still to explore all of the features that come with it. This is a great camera with a powerful zoom lens and is far superior to my old kodak camera. This is my first Cannon camera but not my last.
I bought this camera in order to avoid the constant trauma of attemting to change my SLR lense before the target beastie fled the scene. And the zoom capability of the Canon SX30 does not disapoint. It is however taking me some time to adapt to zooming and focusing whilst retaining the subject location. A clever little button which zooms out, then back in does go some way to solving this frustration. At very high zoom it's very difficult to compose the shot and a tripod is needed. The really annoying aspect of this purchase is the absence of a hardcopy user manual. I've finished up printing out the pages I need - a one inch wadge of paper! Overall I find this camera's ability to photogragh the smallest and most distant subject, usually with acceptable resolution, very impressive. Add to that it's relative convenience when compared to the two cameras and a collection of lenses I have abitually carried around.Read full review
The camera arrived quickly- one day before the expected. It came in a box which was clean and the camera inside had no odour to my delight. There were a few scratches on the lens cap but other then that the camera was good quality and I loved it. The zoom was amazing (35x); it captured intricate detail from a further away subject. Over all, the camera was in a pleasing condition and I look forward taking more pictures with it in the future.

I bought this camera to go on holiday to Eygpt, knowing nothing about cameras. I wanted something better than my happy snapper Canon, but just as fool proof, but not so expesnive as the EOS my husband has. It has the most amazing zoom lense with great apperture (better than my husbands!!!). I just set it to the scenes program and just pressed the button - I am delighted with the results. The only disappointment was the flash - which isn't automatic and has limited reach, but I still good some reasonable shots at night. I haven't tried the video program yet as I really bought this camera for still shots. All in all a great camera at a reasonable price.
Very, very pleased with this camera. An upgrade from a 20.1 MP point-and-shoot pocket camera and although this camera is 14.1 MP the images are far superior, as one can use the x35 telephoto and hence start with a bigger image, suitable for enlarging. A really good camera for anyone upgrading form a simpler camera. OK it is bulkier but the advantages far outweigh this. Recommend. I use it for taking in flight pictures at model aircraft events, and example shows the excellent images that can be captured, even for a fast banking model.

I bought this product because I've never previously owned a camera, I've always used my friends camera's and Phones I've owned, therefore I decided to push the boat out and get something non-run of the mill. I can't fault this camera, it makes just about every picture look artistic and well though with not much effort at all. It has a wealth of features including all the exposure settings, effects such as colour picker and some great video recording quality. The only faults with this camera I've encountered so far is that the battery tends to run itself down every once in a while, but buy a spare and you'll be sorted! I haven't tried many other cameras of this calibre, the only one I tried similar to this is the SX20IS which was the predecessor to this, so this is obviously going to be better either way. Overall if you want a camera which is very versatile, makes things look good, takes brilliant pictures and the amazing zoom.Read full review
If you're looking for a great all round camera this is it! Having owned previous versions of Canons bridging cameras I can honestly say that this, the latest version is incredible. If the bright, clear, unbelievably powerful lens isn't enough then the myriad of functions and Canons logical and simple menu will win you over. If you feel like taking it easy and allowing the camera to sort out your shots, then the 'smart' auto setting will automatically decide the best set up for the shot. I use mine for backpacking where I need a small pack size, powerful lens, long battery life and robust build quality. This camera ticks every box. Buy one, you won't be disappointed!
I bought this camera a few weeks ago and am now using it almost exclusively in place of my DSLR. The picture quality is excellent (as you would expect from a 14.1 megapixel camera with an IS lens). Unlike many compacts, it retains the viewfinder (electronic) as well as offering the multi position flip out LCD screen making it very easy to use. The lens offers a 35mm equivalent 24-840 zoom which is extremely handy. Even the digital zom can give vetry good results under good conditions. All round, an excellent little camera. The only problem is that now my wife wants one too!
takes great pictures,simple to use,good battery life a good all round bridge camera.
