The PowerShot SX130 IS, is the latest super zoom digital compact camera to combine impressive imaging technology with family-friendly flexibility and value. Replacing the popular PowerShot SX120 IS, this new model offers a host of intelligent features to make it easier to capture important moments in both high-quality still images and High Definition movies.
It is not so compact in size, but it has good controls and long zoom lens, this is the perfect camera for those who want an easy-to-use, take-anywhere digital camera. Users are able to shoot amazing still images and video in any situation - from family gatherings, to landscapes, to close-up shots of distant subjects.
It has a 12.1 Megapixel sensor for large, detailed prints, and DIGIC 4 image processing, the PowerShot SX130 IS allows all the family to record special moments in outstanding quality.
Canon’s integrated optical Image Stabilizer offers a three-stop advantage, making it easier to take great shots in low light with long exposures, and reducing the blur associated with camera-shake when shooting distant subjects at the telephoto end of the zoom.
The large, 7.5cm (3.0”) LCD screen, with a 230k dot resolution and optional on-screen Hints & Tips makes it easy to navigate the enhanced menu system and to compose the perfect shot. A wide viewing angle also enables shooting from awkward angles, as well as sharing the results with groups of friends immediately after the picture is taken.
HD
The PowerShot SX130 IS supports 720p HD video with stereo sound, allowing users to immediately switch from photos to high-quality video and back again with one convenient, compact camera. A quiet zoom motor allows the full lens focal range to be exploited whilst recording, and continuous autofocus ensures that moving subjects are sharp – providing the perfect tool for capturing school events, parties and family gatherings where it may be difficult to follow all of the action.
For confident photographers who want more input into how they capture their images, full manual control allows them to individually control shutter speed and aperture to shoot with their chosen settings and create their own effects.
over all its a good cam...............
