camera feature instructions are an on line 300 page book. instruction book that came with camera was incomplete and of little use. Images were not quality. I will not buy another canon product. A part fell out of the battery holder and made the camera inoperable. generally a piece of junk that I spent over $200.00 for.

I bought this camera the day before I went on a trip to San Diego with my son. We went to Sea World and The San Diego Zoo. I absolutely love this camera and take it everywhere with me! I wanted something compact for trips when I don't want to lug around my bigger DSLR; this camera fits the bill. I can't think of anything that I don't like about it. I was amazed at the quality of the photos once they were printed~~terrific! I took over 300 photos before I had to change batteries. I only use ultimate lithium batteries which last up to 8x longer in digital cameras. And the playback feature with the LCD screen to review your photos is good, lets you see which ones you want to keep & discard. Before my digital experience I used only a film camera and have to admit, have been totally spoiled by the digital craze! Attached are 2 photos to show the quality of the photos this camera can produce. How you use the programmable features is up to you, the creativity is endless! Hope you like them.

I absolutely love how bright the pictures are in low light, even without the flash. It takes great pictures, even if we are moving at the moment. The auto-focus feature makes picture taking fun and easy. The LCD is huge, and clear! I have used this camera indoors and out, low light and darkness, moving kids, and sedentary adults. I am a beginner, and using this camera has been a great experience, especially with the instructional CD included. Overall, it is an amazing camera, and I would buy it again.

Actually my son has this camera as a Christmas present. I have used it and I am very favorably impressed with the image quality for the price range and class of this camera. No, it will not quite perform as well as the Canon G10 that I have, but it is honestly very nice in what it will do. I have some 20x30 inch prints from it that are decent. Use good rechargeable batteries for lowest cost of operation. Best ISO will be around 80 or 100 for highest resolution and image quality. I give it five stars as for the price, I would consider it perfect. Very pleased with the camera [...]

This is my first digital camera. The features are very good however learning how to turn them on/off can be frustrating. The user guide comes on a cd disc and when I printed it out I was presented with a one sided page copies of 8 1/2 x 11 sheets 143 pages! Give me a break with that!Finding the features and options on the go is difficult as they are coded in an abbreviated form that I find difficult to remember. Why not just plain english? The camera is good for children and family shots and travel snapshots. I'll stick with my film SLR's for quality images where I have control of my work.I think one can't go far away from the battery charger.I took pictures at a family gathering and the battery needed a charge after about 35 images.

Plus, thanks to Canon's highly sophisticated Optical Image Stabilizer Technology, even at maximum zoom, every image is rock steady.
The PowerShot SX120 IS is equipped with Canon's acclaimed Optical Image Stabilizer Technology that automatically detects and corrects camera shake-one of the leading causes of fuzzy or blurred shots.
