Biomonitoring

I purchased several of these for monitoring photo points at vegetation restoration sites. It takes crisp pictures and is compact, construction is fairly solid too. Doe not focus very quickly if you are trying to capture a moving subject in 'Auto' mode, but that is not the main function of the cameras for my team and I

Features galore and easy to operate.

I have had this camera that replaced an older version of Power Shot. This is a 100% enhancement of the older model and yet easy to operate.

Present :D

Everything was working like how it is supposed to be. I bought it as a present for my girlfriend, she's really happy with it :) Everything has gone smoothly, not one single problem or malfunction in the camera.

I was pleased with the overall package

I was pleased with the overall package; the camera bag was not the same as shown in the Ad., it was larger & probably more expensive, but not as compact as I expected.

Very Convenient

I am a principal at a grade school and find this camera to be very convenient to carry and to use at the drop of a hat to catch those memorable moments for the yearbook.

great camera

The Canon Power Shot SX610 with accessory bundle appears to be working just fine. The only improvement that I would like is for it to be waterproof, or at least water resistant. Our daughter has been getting some great shots of annas hummingbirds. Excellent zoom.

Nice Camera not so nice bundle package

The camera is very nice and I love the red color. My son-in-law said the included SDHC card was not the best and purchased me a new one. Last night I tried to put the camera in the included case and it did not fit. So TWO disappointments. SO, I would purchase the camera by itself but not the bundle.

This kit is worthless

The camera is great but don't let this kit fool you into this being a deal. the camera bag is too small for the camera to fit into it. The Lowpro ridge 10 they provide is too small

About Canon PowerShot SX610 HS

Along with its impressively slim profile and stylish new design, the Canon PowerShot SX610HS camera boasts a powerful array of advanced capabilities. The 18x Optical Zoom gives you excellent versatility, while Intelligent IS helps ensure virtually shake-free images at any zoom length, and Auto Zoom helps you frame your subject and keep it in focus.

18x Optical Zoom
The powerful 18x Optical Zoom range (35mm equivalent: 25-450mm) on the PowerShot SX610HS camera is ideal for capturing memories of kids' achievements on the sporting field, recitals, plays and concerts - all those times when your access to the action is limited. From landscapes and wildlife to city scenes and more, this camera has you covered - all while fitting in your pocket.

Zooming action is quick and precise, and genuine Canon optics help ensure brilliant clarity. Chromatic aberration is compensated across the entire range, and the lens's high optical resolving power works with the camera's high-resolution sensor and advanced image stabilization systems to produce clear, sharp, beautifully detailed images at any zoom length.

Intelligent IS
It's easy to capture clear, steady images, even in low light without using a tripod. That's because the camera is equipped with Canon's innovative Intelligent IS. The system automatically analyzes camera movement and applies the best shake correction method for the shooting situation - allowing you to focus on framing and capturing your shot. For stills, the system selects from Normal IS, Panning IS, Macro (Hybrid) IS and Tripod modes. When shooting video, the system selects from Dynamic IS, Powered IS, Macro (Hybrid) IS and active Tripod IS modes. Icons clearly mark the image stabilization mode, whether you're shooting still images or video.

Normal IS
Corrects for a wide range of camera movement when shooting stills.

Panning IS
Panning motion is detected so that IS does not interfere with desired camera movement.

Macro (Hybrid) IS
Corrects for shift-type camera shake, whic h typically occurs in macro (close-up) shooting.

Tripod
When tripod use is detected, the Image Stabilizer is stopped because it is not needed.

Dynamic IS Effective for video shooting at wide-angle focal lengths, eliminating the unwanted shaking that typically occurs while walking.

Powered IS
Compensates for hand movement when shooting video at the telephoto end of the zoom range, where camera shake is magnified.

Macro (Hybrid) IS
Corrects for motion blur that is likely to occur when shooting video while walking. Also compensates for the shift-type camera shake common in macro shooting.

Active Tripod IS
When shooting video while using a tripod, the image stabilization is active to compensate for slight camera shake.

Built-in NFC (Near Field Communication)
PowerShot digital cameras with built-in NFC (Near Field Communication) technology eliminates the need to manually find and open the new Canon Camera Connect app on your mobile device. Simply touch the NFC icon on your camera to your compatible Android device, and the Camera Connect app will launch automatically for quick, easy sharing of your images. Built-in NFC technology also makes it simpler to install the app.

If the app hasn't been installed yet, once you touch the devices together for the first time, the download screen will display automatically. Now, NFC helps ensure making a connection to a compatible Android device truly seamless. Simply touch the camera against an NFC-equipped device with the Canon Camera Connect app installed, and the Wi-Fi connection is established - no camera operations required.

Even if your camera is off, NFC turns the camera on and establishes the connection (confirming the camera's nickname and privacy settings before the first connection is required).

Built-in Wi-Fi makes sharing quick and easy
Built-in Wi-Fi technology for on-the-go convenience when you want to share your photos and videos with friends, family and the whole world. Easily post your images to social networking and media sites - Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, and Google Drive - through CANON iMAGE GATEWAY directly from your PowerShot camera, or save them to the online photo album to share anytime, anywhere. The camera can also connect directly to both iOS and Android devices, and upload images via the free Canon Camera Connect app without a computer.

You can control the destination of your uploads to share with everyone or to selected groups, and even add comments. Sharing video is also easy with Wi-Fi equipped PowerShot cameras, which record video using the easy-to-share MP4 format. Enhanced Wi-Fi makes posting in real time possible, so you can keep everyone up to date with photos and video even as events unfold. Wi-Fi technology also allows you to transfer images to other Wi-Fi equipped PowerShot cameras or print your photos directly to a PictBridge (Wireless LAN) certified printer.

Image Sync Function
The Image Sync Function has been improved and expanded. In addition to wirelessly transferring photos and videos through CANON iMAGE GATEWAY to your computer, now you can view and download them from your smartphone. Take them anywhere, anytime, and use your familiar smartphone operations to view and share them.

Remote Shooting with the Camera Connect App
With the built-in Wi-Fi on the PowerShot SX610 HS camera, you can use your smartphone or tablet to remotely control the camera. Simply connect wirelessly to your device and access the free Canon Camera Connect app. Your device will show a live image of the camera's capture - perfect for a commemorative group photo, wildlife shots and all kinds of situations.

The camera's versatile 18x Optical Zoom, flash, self-timer and shutter are all under your control, with images being saved to your camera as usual. In addition, the new Camera Connect app is now universal to PowerShot and Canon EOS cameras with built-in Wi-Fi, so if you switch between cameras, operation is easy and familiar.

Mobile Device Connect Button
The camera's dedicated Mobile Device Connect Button gives you one-touch access to your compatible mobile device or computer (utilizing Image Sync function). You can transfer photos and videos to your smartphone or tablet for immediate sharing to a computer on the same network. When the camera finds a linked computer on the same wireless network, images are sent directly to it. Otherwise, images are temporarily stored on CANON iMAGE GATEWAY then transferred once a connection is made - very convenient when you're on vacation or out for the day.

Compatibility with Canon Connect Station CS100
By simply tapping with NFC, photos and videos are wirelessly transferred to the Connect Station CS100 where up to 1TB of hard drive space (has the capacity for approximately 150,000 photos or approximately 70 hours of video content) and simple menus make them easy to store, manage and sort by albums, date or device name. From there, images and videos can be viewed in Full on an HDTV (via an HDMI cable), sent to compatible wireless printers, viewed/uploaded/downloaded smartphones and tablets or PCs, and shared with other Connect Stations.
