Type of review

The very first thing that came to mind after making the purchase was, "Why does a gadget that costs 5,000 shoot better than one that costs 16,000 (specifically, the Canon Powershot SX20 IS)?! A photograph of breathtaking beauty, with realistic colors (excellent white balance), and incredible attention to detail; for example, you can make out individual hairs on the subject's head. To get the "big brother" to a level of quality that was acceptable, it was necessary to manually adjust a large…

Pros
  • Exceptional stability and color reproduction, as well as superb ergonomics, user-friendliness, and the ability to run on AA batteries.
Cons
  • a limited optical zoom range and essentially no user-controllable options.

I am not disappointed, the quality is satisfying.

Price / quality, the flash takes a long time to charge and underestimates the battery level. batteries, as well as video of terrible quality, mobile phones take better pictures! It fell several times, but it still works, I have already taken about 3900 photos with it, the photos become better if you turn off the digital zoom, and shoot only with optical - the only three modes worth remembering are R - software; SCN long exposure; SCN super macro (no flash here)! Don't forget about changing…

Pros
  • Price, moderate quality of images that can be extracted on a PC, many different settings for each individual mode
Cons
  • Matrix, noise, long flash charge, fireworks mode failed, slow frame rate = 0.9 fps

I was very pleased with the ability to adjust the self-timer. You can, for example, set it to take pictures every 3 seconds and take 5-7 pictures - it's very convenient when you put a camera somewhere and shoot a crowd of people - one of the pictures will definitely be successful. In this price category - the best. Another cool feature is the widescreen shot mode. If you try in portrait mode, you can get a pseudo-semi-pro shot with a blurry background, like on a DSLR with a fifty dollars.

Pros
  • Price, speed and convenience of the menu, good color reproduction, quick start, high-quality flash against red eyes, lightning-fast switching of captured frames (in preview, i. E. poor quality), adequate face recognition and tracking
Cons
  • If the batteries are low, it charges the flash for 2-3 seconds. There is not enough opportunity to adjust shutter speed (well, this is nonsense in such a pricing policy).

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Still worth your time and money. If you have a choice, I would recommend reading the tests and looking at the photographs. The most important thing to keep in mind, though, is that opinions can never be objective in situations like this. That one person enjoys something different than another is perfectly OK. For me personally, the a480 is quite content with me. Got pros: Almost certainly the cost. She was indeed one of the primary criteria that was used to make the selection. In addition to…

A good product, I advise you to try it.

I was on the seas, I lost a new Kodak C1013 (good luck to those who found it !), at least they returned the card with pictures))), but oh well . So, I don’t regret it a bit, upon arrival I bought this one at least a little and more expensive, but it can’t be compared with a Kodak ! Pictures are better every 2 times video in general 4 times. In short, I am satisfied with this fotik !

Pros
  • Easy to handle! And the pictures seem to be nothing ., not fully tested, first impressions are positive !
Cons
  • not yet discovered . except for the lack of a viewfinder . if there were, the model would be more interesting. And, there is no forced flash in auto mode.

If the budget is extremely limited, then, most likely, it is impossible to find something better. But for long-term use, I recommend finding something similar or better in quality (perhaps from the same manufacturer - judging by this device, the company inspires a certain confidence), but always with a battery and a stabilizer! Pros below: Natural color reproduction, good image quality, many settings (it is possible to install an additional program for canon photos), the price! Its cons…

Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

It's a good thing if a photo for you is just a reminder of some events in life, and not a work of art. Pros below: Cheap, can record video in AVI format. And subjectively: the photos are good, the charge consumption is economical (I bought additional Samsung batteries with a capacity of 2300), the camera itself is very simple to operate. With its cons. I consider the camera in the context of "Take a picture for memory", so for me there are no shortcomings, especially for such money. Unless…

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

I took this camera as a gift to my nephew, I myself have owned photography business for many years, I considered that this device is the best choice in order to start getting involved. The pictures are excellent, both in daylight on the street (the colors are super and there are settings), and in well lit room. Has some pros easy to use, very smart, good image quality, does not make mistakes and does not lather. A large selection of settings that makes it possible to take everything you need…

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

A tripod + lighting (flash helps) is recommended in any case, as elsewhere. The effective resolution of the matrix, though about 2 million dots. pixels (1600x1200, perhaps a little more, in the options there are only 4 million points - there is already too much), with this resolution you can really get detailed photos "at every point" + compact file size on the memory card. For comparison, a good camera phone photo is ~10 at best, it will be able to depict such detail ~ 800x600 (~ 0.5 million…

Pros
  • optics, automation, price, AA batteries (2x2500 batteries are enough for ~ 2.5 hours of video, more than 2022 photos)
Cons
  • like all manufacturers, the effective resolution of the matrix is ​​hidden (megapixels, at which the device really gives Detail, and not slur, even in the most ideal conditions)

Average quality of the product, especially for the money.

Pros: Removes normally. Any novice amateur photographer will cope with it. The available functions are enough to take a photo for a family album. Cons: When you zoom in when recording a video, the image becomes cloudy and it’s not clear what you shot. The battery lasts for 1 evening with constant use.

The quality is fine, it's fine to use.

Different pros: Convenient, relatively cheap (bought for 4850 r), except that you need to buy a memory card, batteries and a charger (it will cost about 1000 r), The photos are pretty decent, even very good when viewed on a computer. Cons below: I bought it in July 2022 and now I took it to the warranty workshop. It crackles like a tractor when turned off (the lens does not retract) and displays "Lens error". In the warranty they said that this is a problem 480 - defective gears in the lens mec

In general, a good fotik for its price range. By remembering and taking into account the negative aspects when shooting, bad photos can be avoided. I recommend. Got pros: Excellent image quality and color reproduction. Good video and sound. Convenient and simple menu. Batteries last a long time. Good macro photography. Got cons: There is no forced flash in automatic mode (only auto or off). When using the zoom, shooting objects in motion, in terms of sharpness, is poor. Battery charging shows…

No complaints, I recommend the product for purchase.

Different pros: The model is easy to use, due to the resolution, the photos are printed in very decent quality, the batteries last a long time Cons below: I would be more delighted if the camera was determined not by the camera, but by the flash drive; not very convenient flash; photo quality could be better

There are a few bugs, basically the norm.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to identify any special advantages and disadvantages, since the camera broke almost immediately after the purchase. His lens jammed, when turned on, the device made a terrible crack, and the message "Lens error" appeared. Before that, the computer did not see him. Brought it in under warranty. Three weeks later they returned, but on the same day another defect was discovered. Under the lens inside the lens, a small shutter opens about ten percent when turned…

Pros
  • First of all, it is its price. I bought it for 3500, which is quite acceptable for a device of this class. Compact, practical, easy to operate. The quality of the photos is good, a solid four.
Cons
  • Unreliable lens mechanics, poor plastic quality

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I went out and bought my mother a new camera because she recently became a grandmother for the first time at the age of 60, and her old camera that was only five years old and had broken. She had nothing to take pictures with, and the child is developing very quickly. The device has not yet been handed over, which means that he has not yet been on the battlefield in the hands of the inept. However, on the basis that a woman who is 60 years old does not need anything at all besides the ON button

Pros
  • The camera is small, but not ultra-thin; it rests confidently in the hand; it has outstanding image quality; a fast start; a good auto mode; AA batteries; an SD card; and autofocus.
Cons
  • not located just yet You could want to bring up the fact that the device has absolutely no memory built in (in the absence of a memory card, there is literally nowhere to store any images).

An excellent camera for those who just want to get cool pictures at the touch of a button, and those who like manual settings - they are quite enough. And, as I already mentioned, if you want to learn how to work with raw, but don't have money / don't want to buy a DSLR - Canon's soap dishes are a wonderful find, you just need to reflash them. I put a solid 5, because for the same money no soap dish will give more opportunities (the same equal, for example).

Pros
  • 1) The main advantage is the user's ability to reflash the camera with chdk and get pictures in raw. 2) Stunning image quality at low iso. 3) Value for money. 4) Gorgeous super-macro mode.
Cons
  • 1) When the battery runs out during operation, the lens does not have enough power to hide back and it often freezes in an intermediate position until you put in new batteries. 2) only 32 MB of memory, anyone will have to buy an sd card. 3) batteries with a capacity of less than 2450 mAh run out indecently quickly, it is better to take rechargeable ones right away.

A great option for this money, I definitely recommend it!

The first question after the purchase: why does a device for 5 thousand shoot better than for 16 (namely, the Canon Powershot SX20 IS) ?! A stunningly beautiful picture, realistic colors (good white balance), detailing is beyond praise, you can see individual hairs on the head. To achieve such quality on the "big brother" it was necessary to turn over a bunch of manual settings and kill a week of time. And then - pointed, pressed - and that's it ! In general, the AUTO mode is implemented just…

Pros
  • Excellent stabilization and color reproduction, excellent ergonomics, ease of use, AA batteries.
Cons
  • Small optical zoom, almost no manual settings.
