Canon PowerShot SX420 Digital Camera Black with Case Logic Compact Camera Case

I came to Amazon looking for a camera to take on vacations and trips. I only ever use my iPhone for pictures, and wanted to invest in something slightly more professional that wouldnt break the bank. I am in no way a photographer, but this camera sure makes me feel like one. Its the perfect size for travelers, as it fits in your hand perfectly, as its very small and portable. I think the picture quality is absolutely stunning. I can zoom into a tree from over 100 feet away and it looks as if Im right in front of it! I havent taken this camera on my trip to Europe yet, but will update and post the pictures I take once I do. Ive mostly just played around with it, taking pictures of my dog or sister. I included a selfie to show the flash - that was taken in a pitch black room. I wasnt even sure it would come out clear, but wow! Look at the quality! One thing I would like to address is the wifi, which might be my favorite thing about this camera as a whole. I contemplated buying the Canon powershot SX410, which is a cheaper, slightly older version of this camera, but opted for this because of the wifi feature. I cant boast about it enough. I can take a picture of something, click on the wifi option on the camera, connect to the wifi from my phone, open the free camera app and send the picture directly from my camera to my iPhone. I can also delete that picture from the camera once Ive saved it to my phone, so Ill never run out of space! The battery life is also very impressive and it seems to stay charged for a long time (another reason its great for travelers). And the time it takes to fully charge the battery isnt long at all. Im just a person who wanted a cool camera to take nice quality pictures. Im not a photographer or anything near, but I love clean, crisp quality shots. If you want a small, portable camera that takes AMAZING quality pictures, has a KILLER zoom and flash, and has a wifi feature that allows you to share your pictures on social media in the matter of seconds after taking the picture, this is for you. This camera should be so much more expensive that it is because its absolutely amazing. 10/10 recommend!

I dont have a lot of photography or non-phone camera experience. So, I really just jumped into the DSLR world with this camera. Having this for a week, I really enjoy it for how much it can do. Seems like a lot of the reviews here are people that dont understand how cameras work (ISO, aperture, shutter speed). You DO NOT have full control over aperture or shutter speed. Its an entry level camera. If you want full control, buy a Rebel T5! The specs are not professional either (theyre mid-range at best), so dont expect your quality of pics to be super awesome starting out, you need practice. This camera is a tool, you have to control it. Its not going to take great pics by itself! Heres a few of my favorite pics Ive taken in the past week. Enjoy! :)

What a wonderful camera! Its light. Its photos are SO REAL. And its SO EASY to operate. I bought it in RUBY RED, and I can FIND IT anywhere, even in the dark. Its battery holds an extended charge for many photos. I bought a couple of backup batteries and a backup charger to have on hand.

First I bought a Coolpix which had wifi. I never could get the wifi to transfer pics to my iPad and the camera was too small and the controls too close to each other to operate the camera. After I found the Coolpix a new home, I bought this Powershot SX420. First, the camera is large enough to hold still and to operate the controls. I have arthritis, my hands are a little stiff but I can use this camera without any problem. The thumb rest beside the movie button didnt stop my thumb from sliding, so I put a small square of sticky back Velcro there to use for a thumb grip. Problem solved. The wifi is very easy set up. Pictures transfer painlessly to my pad or the photo printer. The long zoom makes the SX420 a great kayaking camera. Pictures of wildlife along the shoreline are very clear. This is a great little camera to have fun with when youre tired of your big camera that seems to take itself so seriously.

Im still trying to learn how to use. Get a tripod for the magnified shot. Easy to move shots to my iPad. Gives fast turnaround to get it to Facebook or E-Mail.

Amazing pictures! I love my camera so much. You can get beautiful pictures out of this camera, with out needing to spend 400$ on some camera to get the same quality. Its the photograper skill more so than the camera. Practice makes perfect for sure with this camera. Im by no means a professional. But I do take many many photos. From people to still life to the moon. I love taking photos of the moon. But anyways, this camera is a wonderful option.

I am an artist who needed a simple new camera for my colorful artwork (and for personal nature hike photos). I have used the camera for a couple of weeks now (still figuring out some of the settings), but I am super happy with it so far. The color seems good, the zoom works well (though can be a bit grainy on super large shots). I shot the moon photo the second day I had the camera. I am really pleased that the self-timer will remain ON from shot to shot instead of having to re-set every time - very handy! The length of the lens takes a bit of getting used to, but I do like the way this feels in my hand compared to a rectangular point-and-shoot. The largest image resolution is HUGE and will yield crisp prints at a smaller size. I am very glad I ultimately chose this Canon PowerShot SX420 out of the literally dozens of cameras I researched over a months time! (Photos: I bumped up saturation in post editing on the close up of the 1 " and 2" crystals, the moon was shot on a tripod (I never shot the moon before, so that was an exciting result).

I took advantage of buying a Refurbished Camera and saving at least $80 over all the other SX420s available at that time. In fact, I was a little concerned about the quality because of the very low price, $100. When I opened the box which arrived right on time I was pleasantly surprised. It looks like and functions like a new camera. I am very happy with the seller and the quality of the camera.
