📷 Canon PowerShot ELPH 520 HS 10.1 MP CMOS Digital Camera: 12x Optical Zoom, 28mm Wide-Angle Lens, 1080p Full HD Video Recording in Silver Review

My Canon PowerShot Elf 770 broke (lens wouldn't open) just a week before my trip to India and Nepal, so I ordered this. It didn't come with a memory card so it was an extra expense but the price for the camera was great It uses a micro memory card so none of the other memory cards I've used with my other Elf will work and neither will the batteries , as this one uses rechargeable lithium. Other than that it's a great little camera. I took about 1500 shots, many of which I used at the max zoom…

It was a pretty good camera. I don't expect anyone to buy this model new as it has likely been discontinued. Anyway, it's about what you expect for the money. It's very small, has a good long optical zoom, doesn't last very long on a small battery, and 1080p videos aren't the best, but it works well as a pocket camera.

It also has a dedicated video button, so you don't have to turn the camera off and on like you would a camcorder - you can do it on the fly. You can browse the menus and tweak

They have 3 old Powershot ELPH models and love them. If you need a better zoom this one helps in the sense that it's better than the other new models which are terrible for KIDS. You no longer have the setting "BABY"! WHY ? All it takes is a faster shutter speed with a higher ISO. Why is it so hard to set up Canon? You guys have all these weird recording styles but NO KIDS! So this model has a multi-shutter capability. The longer I hold the shutter button, the more images are needed. It will…

and while image quality was usually quite good, it had a limited range of sizes/resolutions he could take pictures. I rarely use my camera (mostly for vacation photos and cute moments with pets). I wanted a cheap Canon camera that would turn on quickly, shoot at higher resolutions (especially 1:1) and have better overall image quality than the IS 1200. I have been using this camera for a few months now. Overall Impression: Very pleased with the improvement in image quality over the 1200 IS. It…
