Canon PowerShot SX130IS Highlights

The Canon PowerShot SX130IS has a sleek, ergonomic design with all major controls at your fingertips. The 3” LCD screen is larger than most LCD screens found on other digital cameras. It also has a wide viewing angle, making it easier to see what you are shooting. In addition, the high-resolution screen provides clearer images during playback.

Videos can be taken in 720p high density, even while using the 12x wide angle optical zoom. The camera is loaded with basic functions that you will find extremely useful, plus some cute gimmicks that are a lot of fun such as Fisheye Effect for stills and Miniature Effect for movies and stills.

The PowerShot SX130IS features Smart Flash Exposure technology. This uses the proper flash by analyzing the lighting conditions to help ensure that your images are not over or underexposed. Your photos will retain all the details and lifelike colors even under low light. When combined with the Smart AUTO feature, your pictures will come out clear and sharp all the time. The PowerShot SX130IS will take care of all the technical details for you, with 28 predefined shooting conditions to choose from for optimum results. You can take a picture of your friends, a flower, or a landscape. Each time, your images will be crisp and color-rich.

Canon’s DIGIC 4 Image Processor delivers better picture quality even at high ISO. Noise is reduced, so there is no blurring or fuzziness in the images. With its 12.1 megapixel resolution, the Canon PowerShot SX130IS gives incomparable detail and depth to your images. Shots can be enlarged to create clear 13 x 19-inch posters. Any section of an image can be cropped and enlarged with no loss in quality.

This camera uses two AA-size batteries as its power source. In my opinion, this is one of its most practical features. Size AA batteries can be purchased anywhere, so it’s good to know that you can easily get new ones at any local store. You don’t need any special chargers or power adapters. You don’t have to worry about running out of batteries. In fact, you can always pack a few spares.

What’s in the Box
When you purchase this digital camera, you will get the PowerShot SX130 IS camera body, a wrist strap, an AV cable, USB interface cable, and the Digital Camera Solution CD-ROM. Two AA-alkaline batteries are included so you can start shooting with your new digital camera.
