Advantages: Zoom, small size, picture quality, playback and review Disadvantages: Screen display a little grainy, doesn't like fluorescent lights, no optical video zoom
...general public reviews on the Canon Powershot 200sx I took the plunge and bought it. As this was my first digital camera I was somewhat apprehensive, maybe the thing would be too complex or too expensive for an entry level camera novice such as myself to take. At £243 (before the £40 cashback offer, which took a month to arrive) perhaps a slightly older model model at £120-150 would've been a wiser purchase.

The flash though always pops up and stays up, for some this is annoying for me it really means nothing, as I'm too busy learning the features and practicing picture taking. There are many preset modes such as landscape, indoor, outdoor, people and pet, not to mention simple mode where one can not really change anything and is as fully automatic as the camera can get.

This is more than I'll probably ever need as it's very rare that I ... ...I took advantage of a Canon promotion which gave £40 cashback on this particular model. I'd already decided on this camera so the cashback was a nice bonus. All in all, it cost £234.55 including delivery from Jessops.com. After a few weeks of use I'm finding that I really like this camera. It's not as small as some compacts but if you manage to get hold of a Canon case then you can fit the camera, spare battery and a couple of cards inside it quite ...

Advantages: Manual Controls and HD Movie Disadvantages: a bit bigger than the average conpact camera
This camera is ideal for all photographers. Be it that you're a keen amateur or just someone who wants a point and shoot. Teh user can just select fully automatic and that camera will do it all, or select manual controls and the keen amateur can have full control.
The camera also has a great zoom (28-300 mm) range which again will make it ideal in all situations be it family days out, travel or just general landscapes.
It will also record HD video ...
