Best Compact Digital Point And Shoot Camera

[Empty] Bought this to carry a small point and shoot digital camera on a backpack chest strap while hiking. Very satisfied with the flap covered padded camera compartment, and zippered section for extra batteries and SD cards. Much better design than the Lowepro case it replaced. Just what I needed.

[Carabiner] I've used analog SLRs for years and transitioned to digital point and shoot cameras about 8 years ago. I've steadily upgraded and finally after much research settled on what I now consider to be the best technology short of a digital SLR. I will use this for not only family pictures, but also on the cruises that my wife and I take periodically. In particular I'm looking forward to pictures from our upcoming Alaska inland passage cruise in early September. The 20X zoom with an effecitve 28 to 560 mm range is fantastic and at long focal lengths the image stabilization does a great job. I like the fact that you can record HD movies, but wish the HD cable was standard rather than what appears to be proprietary. Otherwise, I am thoroughly pleased with this camera. While it has high tech features that will take me months to master, the ease of taking pictures right out of the box and the quality of the results with virtually no learning curve is a real plus. Would definitely recommend this camera to anyone looking for a longer zoom point and shoot that will provide consistenly high quality pictures.

[Front] This very compact lens allows me to use my SLR almost anywhere as I would do with a small point and shoot. I've used the DA 40mm XS on my old Pentax K10D that has now found a new live as a camera for vacation and any situation when you don't want to transport a big camera-lens kit. Because the Pentax bodys are small, it's easy to put it in your pocket. The 40 mm with the 1.5X factor is perfect for many situations (portrait, landscape...) Only two small cons : it gives a bizarre look to your camera and the lens hood is not thightly attached.

[922,000 Dot] I WAS SEARCHING FOR A NEW POINT N SHOOT COMPACT CAMERA AND FOUND THE CANON SX740, READ REVIEWS AND PURCHASED IT. I'M VERY IMPRESSED WITH THIS CAMERA, EASY TO OPERATE, GREAT PICTURES, AND A GREAT VALUE UNDER $500.00

[Proprietary] Has many uses for my cell phone, point and shoot camera etc

[0.4 lb (0.2 kg)] Perfect for a small point-and-shoot camera.

[0.79 lb] I have been taking digital photos with point & shoot cameras for years, but finally decided on this DSLR. Small, light, and amazing! Very pleased with the quality of the photos just using the P(rogram) setting, but it can do so much more. The 2 lenses in the bundle compliment each other perfectly. There is so much here that a dedicated book is a must; I downloaded the ebook version of David Busch's Canon EOS Rebel SL2/200D Guide to Digital SLR Photography, which will go a long way towards helping figure things out. The LED screen is amazing, and the articulation makes it 10x more useful. Pros may have nits to pick with this 'entry-level' camera, but regular folks looking for a first DSLR won't go wrong with the SL2.
