Review on Cannon PowerShot ELPH 130 IS Digital Camera - 16.0 MP, 8x Optical Zoom, 28mm Wide-Angle Lens, 720p HD Video (Red) - Discontinued Model by Mark Lodge

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beware! The software does not load properly and the WLAN setup is not possible!

I used to have a Canon Powershot and loved it! I was excited to see one with Wi-Fi connectivity and I was able to upload photos straight to Facebook to share with family and friends. Despite installing and uninstalling software, I can't start Canon Image X (it freezes at 80%) and I can't connect the camera to my computer via Wi-Fi. I've spent the last two days trying to find solutions to these problems and found that there are no working solutions. I'm frustrated that I've spent so much time fixing software problems in what should be as simple as booting up a disc and letting the program do what it's supposed to. I like to think I'm pretty good with computers, but even I can't solve these problems! The camera itself is great and takes good photos and videos. Just don't expect to use Canon software or Wi-Fi!

Pros
  • I've always loved it
Cons
  • The cord is shorter than other picks
